Adorable cafe with great food

Very attractive and welcoming cafe. Felt very authentic as a tourist. The food all looked incredible but we only had croissants (one with vegan cheese!) and coffee. So tasty. Happy customers!

Pros: All vegan, Fresh and delicious food, Beautiful cafe and setting

Nice sandwiches and cakes

The sandwiches tasted excellent. Nice choice of delicious cakes and pastry, all vegan.

Update: looks cleaner now! (A point for improvement is definitely the cleanliness, I've been there several times and the floor always looked quite dirty.)

Geweldig restaurant

Wij gingen hier ontbijten, we namen van alles, lekkere kaas croissants, chocoladebroodjes, thee en granola. Het is heel lekker en de bediening is erg vriendelijk. Heerlijk ook zo'n volle theepot! Beste croissants die ik heb gegeten sinds ik vegan ben.

Pros: Goed eten , Vriendelijk personeel , Leuke sfeer

Ontbijt

Na een nachtje wildkamperen hier heen gegaan voor een ontbijt. En wat een heerlijk ontbijt was dit! Croissants met kaas, heerlijke granola en een grote pot thee! Het chocolade broodje was ook erg smakelijk! Echt een top plek met een top ontbijt! Interieur is ook erg leuk met de vintage look.

Pros: Lekker ontbijt, Aardig personeel, Fijne sfeer

A lovely place for a break from sightseeing

We ended up here for lunch because the restaurant we were aiming for was closed for a private catering, so we were pretty late and they were almost sold out – there was only one sandwich type left, so I was a bit disappointed, but the sandwich itself was awesome. We then came back later in the afternoon for a coffee and a piece of cake (we had eyed the cakes earlier) and the sweets were delicious. The location is fabulous, right on the canal, and the food is very good, which explains why this place is so popular. The prices are a bit high, but this is the case everywhere in this area.

Pros: Excellent location, Very good food (sandwiches, soups, cakes ...)

Cons: A bit expensive

Amazing views from the inside

Cozy restaurant with a full-vegan menu. We ordered french fries, homemade ice tea, a local beer and a cinnamon roll (super tasty!). Friendly staff and best views in Ghent!

Geweldig ontbijt

Ik bestelde het Ludo Ontbijt en dat was een goede keus: heerlijke koffie, verse sinaasappelsap, een glas granola met sojayoghurt en een chocoladebroodje. Ik heb nog nooit zo'n goed vegan chocoladebroodje gegeten als hier. Het kan zich bijna meten aan de chocoladebroodjes die ik vroeger op vakantie in Frankrijk at.

Ik kom hier zeker nog eens terug!

Pros: Hoge kwaliteit , Leuke sfeer , Fantastische locatie

Pěkný výhled na kanál.

Kousek od centra. Pěkný výhled u vody. Nikdo neumí anglicky tak že vám bohužel nikdo nepomůže a nezodpoví jaký koliv dotaz. Ani snaha komunikace, což je velká škoda.
Jídlo není špatný.. taková klasika nic extra.

Pros: Pěkný výhled na kanál

Cons: Nikdo neumí anglicky nulová komunikace., Jídlo nic extra , Dražší cena.

Ordered 1 coffee, took forever

I think they forgot my order. Reminded them, took even longer. But the coffee was good, I think it was a one time accident...

Yummy, cheap sandwiches

We had the pea sandwich and the curry sandwich - both were delicious. Waitress was very happy to help translate the menu and help with my nut allergy. Lovely eclectic interior and views of the river.

Sunny outside terrace in the morning

We choose this place because of the sunny outdoor terrace. Perfect in the morning for a coffee break. We tried two of the cakes but we're a bit disappointed. They lacked flavour and the texture was not really refined (sugar bombs mainly).

Cons: Cleanliness of toilets could be better

Midnight lasagna & esma

I love this place as much as I loved their previous one (Billie Bonka). Don't expect a fine-dining experience, but come here for no-nonsense vegan sandwiches, coffee and desserts, as well as the deliciously classic lasagna that you can even still order at midnight, which was a blessing during Gentse Feesten. They also make exquisite esma's (espresso martini). Must try! We come here often with non-vegan friends as well and were never disappointed.
