Ingmar 'Iggy' Baeyens 💥November 30, 2011A favourite for outgoing hipsters anytime, here is where you see and get seen 2.0! So dress even sharper, look even classier, talk more smack, have a Flying Peppa, enjoy the ride, cry over the bill!
Best cocktails in town! Amazing recipes and very cosy decor. People are always friendly over here :) try the "in bed with the devil!"
Inge MortierMay 31, 2013Tried the Old Fashioned with bourbon, still no better than their homemade Whiskey Sour, my favourite- Makes a very good Old Fashioned cocktail, loved his own recipe " the flying peppa", which won a competition prize. Needs some more research on the Sazerac ;)
try the Ginger Whiskey Sour, it's mmmmmmjammmmm ❤- CitypathJune 24, 2014For a hundred years, the Royal Opera of Ghent and 'Café du Théâtre' have been the crowdpuller of Ghents night life.
Kevin PutNovember 23, 2018Food was below average and way to expensive for what we got.Service was horrible our evening. Friendly but VERY long waiting times. Would not recommend this restaurant to anyone at the moment.
Jolien SchelstraeteJune 17, 2012Try "Woman on top", the modern answer to strawberry daiquiri, love it!
Frederik De KeyzerDecember 14, 2015You pay too much for what tou get! There are nicer places in town
Angelo CallantNovember 1, 2011Nice resto, famous for the tartare, stylish bar with rather small mojito 's
Not because Negroni isn't on the list that you can't ask for it. Loved it!
Olivier SwyngedouwSeptember 14, 2019Nope... It’s not what you would expect when you see the prices... Nice venue but value/price far from OK.
