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.
Located in the heart of the city is the beloved and modern wine bar: Chubby Cheeks. A magnificent selection of natural wines, non-alcoholic wines and fun flavours one could never imagined paired with bites or as Spaniards would say “tapas”. We suggest you go in a group to order as many delicacies and wines as possible. Tartare, oysters, ham, you name it. Sip away the afternoon in this local gem.
In an old building, you will now find the cool concept of DOK. A brewery, a bar, a restaurant and a laid-back hanging-out spot. A treat for beer fanatics and those who like trying artisanal beers, lagers, IPAs, and sour or dark brews. Besides their niche but excellent selection of beers, they are famous for their barbecue dishes and burgers. If you want to take a step further as a true beer lover, join their beer-tasting tours for a delightful and fizzy afternoon.
Dulle Griet is a classic cozy bar with a supreme variety of Belgian beers. For those enthusiasts of La Chouffe, Leffe and Duvel, you must make your way to this iconic pub. The most fun crowds and beer lovers enjoy sunny days on the terrace and foggy days inside, chanting and cheering.
Jigger’s is a heavenly cocktail bar that will make you completely indecisive about which signature drink to get. They are original, classy and inspired by seasons and themes. This splendid spot is immaculate for a chic night out in the city.
