Tasty food and nice shop!

The shop is really nice! A very good selection of vegan food products with some hard-to-find items. In the bistro the service was very welcoming and friendly! The menu options are classic but varied. We had some delicious and well seasoned appetizers. The lasagna was very tasty! The seitan steak as well, though a little dry. Had some pastries to take home and these were delicious! Would definitely come back and try some more food from their menu!

Pros: All vegan shop 🤩, Tasty food, Very friendly service

Hugely recommended

Happy Cow pointed me to this place and looking in the window was a bit confused because it looks like a grocery store on the side I looked in but I had one of the best sandwiches I've had in my life. Had a great latte, a really good cinnamon roll, and bought some tasty chocolate from the grocery. Staff was nice. Want to come back to Belgium from the USA for that sandwich.

Pros: Great food, Nice staff, Clean bathroom

Tasty food, terrible ordering

Food is tasty and menu is varied. Portions are a bit small for the price. The QR code menu is terrible, search doesn’t work, things are barely sorted and lots of things don’t match the paper menu.

Pros: Food

Cons: Ordering system, Price

Perfect vegan brasserie

Nog iets eten na een dagje Gent of langer tafelen met vrienden/familie: de aangename open sfeer en het lekkere eten vormen de ideale plek voor een gezellige avond. Het eten is lekker en homemade, in het bijzonder de kaaskroketten, burger, balletjes in tomatensaus en de bolognaise (de witloof hebben we nog niet geproefd). De appetizers smaakten altijd en proef zeker de verzorgde cocktails (bv spicht margarita) & mocktails: écht de moeite!

Ps: ik kan het niet genoeg benadrukken: proef zeker de kaaskroketten, zonder twijfel mijn favoriete vegan variant!

Beautiful spot & nice concept

I went to this place for a little brunch. The scrambled tofu is really nice! The place is very spacious but quite noisy (for reference, we went on a Saturday morning, so it was naturally quite crowded). The menu is quite varied, and the little convenience store next door is really cool—we were able to pick up some great finds! 😊

Amazing vegan store

Fully vegan store with everything you could want! Except croissants… it seems to get them you need to arrive in the morning.

Great food and lovely people

The food was really good, especially the lasagne. The was a wine menu with some good wines that they were able to guide us through in finding the right match. The restaurant is linked to a vegan supermarket which made the space less cozy. The supermarket was really nice (and expensive) as well but definitely worth a trip

Fancy but a little bit pricey

The setting is nice, the service is fast and the staff friendly. It's good but expensive for what it is.

We shared the "vol-au-vent" (€22.5) and the "carbonnade flamande" (€23). Both dishes were served with fries, mayonnaise and a bowl of salad. Everything was delicious and perfectly seasoned. The only negative point was the high price of both dishes, especially compared to the prices charged in town for similar vegan dishes.

Pros: Delicious belgian cuisine

Cons: A little bit pricey

Porções generosas e comida muito saborosa

Ando apaixonada pela comida daqui, são sempre pratos muito bem preparados e com porções generosas. Menção honrosa para o English breakfast. Além de que, conta com uma “lojinha” com muitas opções veganas que não encontramos no resto da cidade.

Cons: Faça reserva, principalmente se for fim de semana.

Lovely cakes

Me & my partner stopped here for a coffee & cake. I had a cinnamon roll & my partner has a chocolate brownie- both were delicious. Staff are friendly & they have a lovely supermarket next to the cafe.

Very tasty all vegan food

Update:. I find it a pity that they turned to selling more fast-food like food, mostly with fries. For example, before, they had seitan stew with a wonderful potato mash and apple mousse and salad. Now it's with french fries. We visit less now because of that.

I've been here a few times now, always took the stew (stoverij), which is so good. Today I was a bit less hungry so I chose the club sandwich. It was so tasty! Can't describe it, but the different flavours are a match in vegan heaven. Also, this is a complete meal, it fills well. For dessert I have tried the snickers, the twix and the 'speculoostaart', all are amazingly good. Will come again soon!

Update visit of 30 march 2023
We received our stews without apple puree, when I asked the waiter about this, he fetched apple puree for us. (If you've never eaten the stew, you may not notice this was missing)
The stew was different than we were used: the potatoe mash and the apple puree were normally amazing, now both were okay but not outstanding. I told the owner when he asked how the food was. The apple puree was different because of different apples being used.
He went immediately tasting in the kitchen and admitted that the potatoe puree was not how it should be and he had already solved this by adding ingredients to the remaining batch. He was happy that I had told him and gave us the amazing snickers as free treat, which was very attentive !

Update 23 april 2023:
Tried the cheese croquettes today, and they are wonderful. The frangipane cake was not bad either.

Perfect superette and vegan dinner

Delicious place with plant-based menu, a very nice sustainable she nearby. Perfect to enjoy a good meal or enjoy a moment with a good coffee. The interior is spacious and welcoming with bright light coming from the ceiling windows. The food is more on the junk food side so perfect if you are looking for this!

Pros: Store nearby, Full vegan, Bright space
