😠 We had been here before and had a great time, but this time a friend ordered an espresso martini which was undrinkable. It had chunks of something unidentifiable floating in it. They seemed upset when she pointed this out and asked for a different drink. We were then brought the bill before we were... People often mention nice,

    We had been here before and had a great time, but this time a friend ordered an espresso martini which was undrinkable. It had chunks of something unidentifiable floating in it. They seemed upset when she pointed this out and asked for a different drink. We were then brought the bill before we were finished with our drinks and were told in a very unwelcoming tone that we need to pay. They do not accept cash and their banking app did not work, making it very difficult to pay when most places in Belgium are very card/app oriented (we didn't all have cash with us). There is no warning of this on the menu or door. Through all of this, we found them to be very unfriendly, and based on both the service and the quality of the drinks, we will not be coming back.

    First beer in Ghent (Tongerlo) and I've got to say it's a great one! Lovely little bar & definitely will be back again 👍👍👍

    One of my favourite bars to spend my friday/saturday evening. It’s dark and super cosy and usually very good music too. Also outside there’s nices places to sit. Maybe one point of critique are the prices, which are more towards the higher segment imo.

    Modern but still cosy bar with discoish decoration. Eclectic music, ranging from blues, jazz and reggae to electronic music. Very nice staff. The people attending there as well. It has tables outside, as well as an upper floor. And there's a pinball machine!

    very nice bar to hang out at. it is nice in when it is sunny but also nice when it's raining where you can warm up and stay cosey inside. going at night is also very nice. Nice familial workers and you also have a wine bar at the other side of the bar. it is near Gent Zuid and the city centre Korenmarkt. you can also take the tram 1 to go or come from the Sint Pieters trainstation

    Cute small cozy place to have a drink, it's location is very close to the center and Overpoort. They don't have a bank card reader (definitly not at the moment) but you can use mobile payment!

    Really cosy and a very nice atmosphere. Friendly and quick staff. Beer selection was quite limited though. Mostly really popular and traditional options.

    Nice bar but we had to wait way to much time for the waiter to get our order and then even longer for our drinks to arrive... VERY BAD SERVICE!

    Nice place for evening drink or afternoon coffee. Love the service and quality of drinks is really high. Ordering by app and paying at bar by card or by cash at table. Gets crowded later in the evening, but there are usually seats upstairs.

    Nice and cosy bar with pool table, just a little slow service sometimes.

👍👍 As I said to the boss again today: I am glad that you have started the original concept again: no cutlery, no plate, only a croque in a wicker basket, a basket for the potato wedges and a nice fresh drink. And you tell the customer that he can always get cutlery and a plate. I approve. The croques...
