This place certainly has character, not to mention a bunch of characters smoking, drinking and talking loudly to one another. The Red Light district offers plenty of ancient brown bars but this one distinguishes itself with a great selection of beer including Zwak, which is served in a half yard. This confined space is also bursting with memorabilia, most of it with a religious connotation, which is appropriate given the bar’s name – the 11th Commandment or ‘thou shalt enjoy life’. The wood panelling is incredibly ornate and its carved heads seem to come to life after an evening of strong Belgian brews.
