Traveler reviews
Avantika Mathur
★★★★★a month agoHad to check out this place to see if they really take your shoes when you order a beer. And they did not disappoint! Definitely worth checking out. It was quite the experience and I’d come back for sure. AND, they had an entire selection of gluten free beers!
Alon Danino
★★★★★5 months agoAn absolutely amazing and legendary bar. Plenty of seating, an incredible selection of beers - including great gluten-free options - excellent service, and a fantastic atmosphere. We visited on two different evenings: once on the weekend, when we waited about 10 minutes for a table, and once on a Monday when there was no wait at all. Highly recommended and definitely a must-visit in Ghent.
