Fabulous, quite busy, near the station

We loved the concept of paying by weight. If you opt to not be weighed it’s €27 I think, but we had full plates with the weigh option and it was less than €40 for 2. Several salads, some mayo things eg tofu in veganaise, a curry, a nutty crumble, lentil lasagne, a bean stew and some cooked veg. Plus some fried nuggets

Pros: Choice of delicious food, and could eat all!, Novel concept, Friendly helpful staff

Cons: Perhaps a little pricey, but for organic, vegan , Food in the centre of town, we thought it was, Good value really

Warm atmosphere and tasty food.

The staff was very friendly. There is a lot of main courses options and some really good home made deserts.

Healthy and hearty

It's very conveniently located as it's close to the train station. It was nice that there was outdoor seating and everything was so healthy and tasty!

Amazing

So tasty. A bit expensive if you take a lot of heavy stuff. But the selection is small but very good. Paid €26 for a plate and was worried I might not finish. No danger of that. Demolished in 5 mins

Oprecht mijn lievelingsrestaurant

Ik hou zo veel van de sfeer in dit restaurant. Je kan hier altijd rekenen op vriendelijke en respectvolle mensen, zowel bij de bediening als bij de andere gasten. Ook zijn hier vaak goede initiatieven voor het goede doel of voor mensen met wat minder. Ik heb het gevoel dat heel het systeem en de inrichting gebaseerd is op een vertrouwen dat mensen samen voor deze plek kunnen zorgen. Ook zie ik dat er voor gezorgd wordt dat er zo weinig mogelijk (plastic) afval gecreëerd wordt en is er gratis kraantjeswater. Het eten is super lekker, ik ben vooral fan van de korma curry. Het buffet is de ster van de show maar buiten het buffet zijn er zeker ook veel extra opties waar je van kan genieten . Ik durf hier ook naartoe te gaan voor bijvoorbeeld enkel een dessertje. Persoonlijk vind ik het ook geweldig dat er genderneutrale toiletten zijn.

Pros: Lekker en gevarieerd eten, Geweldige sfeer , Vriendelijke mensen

Cons: Ik wou dat ze open waren op maandag of zondagavond

Plantaardig warm en koud buffet

Hier schuift men aan voor een uitsluitend plantaardig warm en koud buffet, je betaalt volgens de hoeveelheid je op het bord schept, ideaal om voedselverspilling tegen te gaan.
Ook steeds lekkere taartjes in de koeling.

Decent food, but at what cost?

Payment is by weight and the price for a fairly basic buffet lunch turned out to be very high.

Overall decent food

I’ve been here many times, and overall the food is quite nice, although I wasn’t a huge fan the first times but it’s improved since then. I always get food from the buffet, it’s nice that it changes often.

Pros: Location (next to train station), Different options

Good pie and coffee

We only went here for pie and a coffee, but it was good! There were three 'cakes of the day' which were banana - coconut, brownie and a cherry cake. The latte was good and they also have a large variation in cold drinks.

Pros: All vegan and biological, A lot of places to sit, also outside, Quiet

Lekker 😉

Eenvoudig en mooi ingericht. Veel variatie in gerechtjes. We kozen voor de formule waarbij het bord gewogen wordt. Ik gebruikte de helft van mijn bord voor sla en rauwe groentjes met de lekkere dressing en de pittenmengeling als topping. De andere helft voor de lasagne met paddenstoelen en tofu (op zich al 5 sterren waard) en de pakora van rode biet (5 sterren is te weinig!). Mijn dochter proefde ook de chili sin carne en vond deze nog lekkerder dan de lasagne. Het was aangenaam weer dus konden gezellig buiten eten en we hebben het dessert meegenomen voor achteraf.
Ik hoor dat het bij momenten druk kan zijn maar wij waren er op dinsdag rond 13u en konden gelijk ons bordje vullen.

Great place, bunch of options

Always something different. You pay for what you get and the prices are good. The food is usually great, and you choose what you take and how much. There's a lot of seating with a cozy/clean interior and a nice terrace.

Very nice, little confusing for the first time

I love a good vegan buffet. It's so nice to be able to eat everything. To have choice 💚.
We both took the plate with the golden edge, so we made a lovely evening of it. Very nice date. As a dessert we took the 2 pies that where available.

It's just a bit sad that it's not mentioned that you need to order inside that means that one goes to the buffet (long wait) and the other one has to stay outside. Next time we would use a different approach.

Nobody came to clear the glasses and cups of the people before us. So they stood the whole time on our table.

Pros: All vegan , Cheap, Nice dessert and drinks

Cons: Confusing... , Nobody cleared the table

Tasty, simple cooked meals

Very tasty cooked meals and stews if you’re tired of frituurs. A plate full of food ended out about 12.50 EUR for me, so the prices are also good depending on how much you put on your plate.

Not really our favourite restaurant

This is a typical "healthy buffet, pay by weight" kind of place and these are usually a hit and miss for us. Unfortunately, this one was more of a miss. The food was very, very bland and some of it too greasy. I couldn't finish my meal because I simply did not like it. However, this might just be our personal taste or maybe it was just a bad day - there are so many good reviews for this place.
Apart from that, the atmosphere was ok and staff were friendly. The location is quite good as well, it was close to our hotel and there are some nice shops around, which is why we chose this restaurant initially.

Pros: Good location, Good sized buffet

Cons: We did not like the food

My favorite restaurant in Ghent

I love the concept, super easy for both a relaxed night out or a quick lunch, since there's no waiting time at the buffet. The food is great and there's always a nice variety in dishes. Friendly staff and convenient location. Definitely warmly recommended!

Pros: Fully vegan, Great location

Redelijk goed

We hebben er een pasta gegeten. De saus was niet slecht maar de kinderporties waren echt heel klein voor een dure prijs. Ik heb al veel betere vegan restaurants gehad.

Pros: Goede spaghettisaus, Vriendelijke bediening

Cons: Duur voor wat je krijgt , Echt heel kleine kinderporties

Gezellig en lekker

Leuk ingericht restaurant. Gezellige sfeer. Ik heb het buffet gekozen. Alle gerechtjes waren veganistisch, dus ik heb met een gerust hart mijn bordje goed kunnen volscheppen 😊 Nadien wordt het gewogen, dus je betaald (een zeer democratische prijs) per gewicht. Het was heel lekker, zowel koud als warm buffet.

Pros: Heel vriendelijk personeel, Groot terras, Betaald per gewicht
