What a treat to be in a city that feels really human, truly authentic. Ghent is a charmer; there's no doubt about that. Quaint but relaxed, this Flemish city is one of our favourites for a day trip or a weekend getaway.
Where better to grab a cup of coffee than in the first coffee bar in Ghent? Mokabon roasts their beans fresh every week since 1937. This cozy interior is usually full with coffee lovers, a safe haven from the always-changing, rapid everyday world. Read a newspaper or have chat and enjoy your cup, always with a side of fluffy whipped cream.
