Café Noir was an establishment in Brussels, Belgium used by the French Secret Service during World War I.

History[]

Café Noir was established in 1912.[1]

In the early half of 1917, spy Remy Baudouin was assigned the cover name of "Albert", and positioned as proprietor of Café Noir — based on his cooking skills — where he was to be the main French contact for the "White Lady", the Belgian underground.

In the year 1940, pilot Jock Lindsey was testing out new planes by flying to drinking establishments around the world. He flew to Brussels in a Renard R.34 with the ID OO-ARW. In Brussels, Jock attended the Café Noir and took coasters from it as souvenirs which he'd later repurpose for his own bar.[1]
