The Mysore coffee comes from India and it smells and tastes as exotic as it sounds. Avoid the lowsy Starbucks next door and get yourself a cup of authentic . Love this place.

Dasha Roganova

This place is the real deal! Authentic , old-school, full of locals. And most importantly, incredibly strong and tasty coffee with the best price/value correlation I have probably ever come across

Gordon Desodt

By far thé best coffee in town and in a unique atmosphere. Take a seat, share a table and start talking with locals.

Pinar S.

An old coffee place that brew the beans. Few tables and loyal customers. Fruit cake was too buttery and sweet for me

Judith Str

The strongest coffee in Ghent . Don't wait for a table, just join others. This place makes you forget Ghent is a city and takes you back to the '50s

Carry It Like Harry

DON'T try the takeaway next door. Sit in and try their signature cappuccino with REAL cream, or ask for a coffee with sidedish of cream. Interior unchanged since the 1950s!

Alexandros Plexidas

Classic coffee place in Ghent. If you want to drink your coffee inside the place, you can only do it standing. Nothing hipster here, only basic plain old coffee .

Rabrabhi Lekponlakan

Cappuccino with wipped cream! The Walker's fruit cake is also nice.

Gordon Desodt

The best coffee in town in an authentic atmosphere. Not to be missed

Giel Verhaeghe

Best coffee in Ghent in a unique 50's atmosphere!

Christophe De Pauw

Why on earth would one go to Starbucks if there's an authentic coffee bar just around the corner?

jacques De Wilde

For an excellent coffee , that’s the place in Ghent.

Katie Riley

I've tried to go here twice and it's impossible to get service. I just leave without coffee . Not sure how this place works obviously, but it's clear why people would still visit Starbucks nextdoor

Plwm Bwm

Get the double expresso with cream. You can't go wrong

Max Dedulle

Don't wait for Starbucks to arrive on the Korenmarkt next winter. Do try the Ice Coffee on hot days, as good as a Frappuccino at half the price!

Ivy Boughtwood

Great for a waffle . Love the table by the mirrors...

C B

Try the cappuccino and the waffles with sugar, delicious!

Tunke Lauriks

The best interior ever! Also good milkshakes .

Cristóbal del C. C.

Really nice café . The cappuccino doesn't even need sugar. I've been told it's the oldest café in Gent.

Ameen Aqeel

Good if you're in the area and need a quick coffee fix but you can get better coffee if you venture off a bit further.

Ian Smoke

Very good coffee !!A name in Ghent!!

Eva De Muynck

Great coffee . ..nice athmosphere

Hilde De Meersman

Great coffee , nothing more, nothing less :)

Vincent Baert

Once you've tasted the coffee here you'll know why Starbucks is but the Mac Donalds of coffee

Ingeborg Deleye

Best coffee (slash whipped cream ) in town !

Laurent De Maertelaer

Really into their smoothies . Heavenly fresh.

muriel

Don't let the darkish interior scare you off. And if the place is full, which it usually is, it's common to just share tables.

Anne Hampe

Very unfriendly and disinterested personel (who dont take closing time too serious when its not convenient for them) ruin enjoying the nice coffee they have.

Dries Glorieux

Coffee ok nut not the best great atmosphere!!

Dennis A. Van Poucke

This is the place to be for a good coffee . Not Starbucks. Seriously...

Tim Besard

The coffee here really is a whole lot better than in the neighbouring Starbucks.

Thomas

Feel like going 50 years back in time.

Niels Demuynck

Best coffee in Ghent !

ilse rogiers

Absoluut the best

Gordon Desodt

No free wifi here like next doors lol but 100% the BEST coffee in town .

Hannes Scheyving

Coffee is delicious

Vincent Baert

Take some coffe home. Buy the "Mysore", that's what they serve here!

Rob D'hondt

Ultimate coffeeclassic in Ghent! Here since the '70

Paulo C.

Dog friendly

Kris Meskens

Koffiegeur all over the place. Zalig

Linda Meert

Marc St.

Mokka beans!

Martijn Rijk

Take a dubble espresso cream!

Jonas Smets

Best coffee in town !

Katrien Lamerant

Milkshake is gene wauw :-(

Leyla ▶_◀

No matter how cosy the interior looks like, do definitely not visit it in the mornings. Fot it is then conquered by unpleasant elders who, I dontknowwhy, think that the cafe belongs only to them

Gordon Desodt

De beste koffie in Gent in een uniek kader. Een echte ontmoetingsplaats voor "locals", toeristen en andere rare kwieten. Het interieur is een must! Een koffiehuis zoals het moet zijn!

Janne Vanhemmens

In het hoekje achteraan rechts kan je jezelf en je buren oneindig bewonderen in de spiegels al nippend van een chocomelk met slagroom in een kop die al 50 jaar gebruikt wordt.

Marieke

Zonder twijfel de beste koffie in Gent en dat in een lekker ouderwets interieur. Aanschuiven bij anderen aan tafel is hier toegestaan.

De Standaard

In een donkere steeg, en achter de hoek zit Starbucks , maar veel Gentenaars zweren bij dit authentieke , schijnbaar eeuwenoude adres. Het is hier vaak zoeken naar een plaatsje.

Most crowded and the most vibrant plaza in Ghent when the sun is out it's a real challenge to find a good spot on the terrace. They've recently added some trees and it's a very nice extra!. - Jonas Van de Vyver
