Great Cafe - Edit
We had some great drinks there, but the best part was the pulled mushroom. So delicious I would have liked to have far more from it.
Read moreThe waitresses were also really nice.
And I would also recommend to go to the supermarket, there are some very interesting items to be found.
Pros: Great savory options too, Nice drinks, Supermarket

Now also opened for dinner - Edit
This is a nice lovely space that is now also opened in the evenings for food. We had a black bean burger and the lasagna. Portions were pretty great but prices are pretty steep as well. Nevertheless, would visit again!

Great Vegan food - Edit
Visited Gent and found Knol & Kool by pure chance after visiting the center. Great food and ambiance! The cost is a little bit above average, but the quality you get in return is certainly worth it!

Lekkere taart - Edit
Heerlijke taartpuntjes gemaakt met duurzame en kwaliteitsvolle ingrediënten. Pure smaken. Voor mij persoonlijk tamelijk zoet.

One of the best in Ghent. - Edit
We were so happy to find a decent place to rest and eat in Ghent. We were lucky enough to get the last Full English breakfast for brunch, and it was so packed with flavour, we didn't care it costs 21 euros.
Read moreWe also had cheese croquettes and pancakes. They've figured out what flavour is and how to infuse it with their food. Fantastic.
They also have a washroom.

Great place - Edit
Had the ‘Gentse stoof’ and some of the cheese croquettes that were too much for my kids. Both tasted really good. Prices are high though, especially for the ‘restaurant in store’ setting.

Gezellige vegan resto in een voormalige winkelgallerij - Edit
Regelmatig deze zaak bezocht.
Read moreZowel voor ontbijt, lunch of tea-room, alles is volledig plantaardig en lekker!
In het restaurant is een kleine winkel inbegrepen met bio en vegan producten.
Aanrader!

Beautiful café, perfect for a long break - Edit
The place is just beautiful, spacious and green, very inviting. We went for lunch and had a burger and some fried cheese croquettes. The burger was very good but the croquettes were amazing – crunchy outside but soft and gooey on the inside. The portions were big, but I still found the prices a bit too high. The shop annexed had very interesting products, unfortunately we couldn’t buy anything because we were travelling around.
Read morePros: Excellent food, Very central, It has a shop annexed
Cons: Pricey

Great cafe, delicious food, nice service! - Edit
We’ve been here numerous times now because it is so good. Lovely, open cafe that is spacious, kid-friendly, and delicious. They have an outstanding menu with brunch and lunch foods as well as numerous pastries and special drinks.
Read moreOur kids loved the board games there, and we always stop by their little market on the other side of the cafe to pick up fresh produce and bulk items.
Great date spot, family spot, or work spot!
Pros: Taste , Atmosphere, Friendly Service

Lekker eten en super mooie ruimte - Edit
De kaaskroketten zijn een absolute aanrader! De ruimte is heel groot en dient voor zowel eten als boodschappen. Bestellen via een QR-code vind ik minder praktisch omdat je niet alles op één blad kan zien en een betaalapp moet hebben op je gsm om een bestelling door te geven.

De beste koffiekoeken!! - Edit
Knol & kool is rustig gelegen, maar toch pal in het centrum. De mooie grote en lichtrijke bistro is zeer uitnodigend. Je komt er onmiddellijk tot rust, bij een lekker kopje thee en een koffiekoek.

Really tasty vegan version of the traditional Flemish stew.
Read morePrices are a bit steep, a small glass of apple juice was 3€, but the food was really good and tasty.
There’s also a shop selling organic produce and bulk items.

Quality food - Edit
I had the ‘cheese’ croquettes, the club sandwich, and a glass of kombucha. Everything tasted really good, the ingredients felt very high quality. Which probably explains the high prices. It’s still worth a visit when in Ghent! The shop is also really cool, I bought some condensed coconut milk.
