Opeens had ik het idee om alle zomerbars te gaan bezoeken in Antwerpen in de zomermaanden. Eerst opzoeken waar al die zomerbars liggen. Moeilijke vraag, zo blijkt. Via google had ik verschillende lijsten die elk andere bars opnoemden. Voorlopig is dit m’n lijst met de bars die open zijn in juli en augustus. Als er nog aanvullingen of verbeteringen aangebracht moeten worden, laat het me weten en dan komen we hopelijk tot een volledige lijst. Let’s enjoy summer!

You want to visit some summer bars? I had the idea to visit them all during July and August. I had to make a list. But: This was not easy! I asked google, I got a lot of lists, but not one had all the summer bars included. So this post is me trying to get them all together. I only included the ones that are open in July and August. If I forgot one: comment me, send me an email,… , so I can change it. The list includes link to the site (if you click on the name), the opening hours and address. Check it out and tell me which you visited!
