    The best place to find presents for everyone you know, because books are always a good idea! Try the chai latte if you want a drink!

    Superb collection. Great vibe. Good for coffee too. A pity it's often too busy on weekends and the cookbook section gets too crowded (as it's opposite the counter and very narrow)...

    You simply can’t miss this bookstore in Gent. Pick one or let the staff advise you, order a coffee and start reading there and then. 100% recommend!

    Wide range of philosophy books and very friendly staff. Before or after you purchase, enjoy a cappuccino!

    The chocolate milk is delicious. And if you're really blue order some brownie to go along with it.

    Support independent bookshops. Buy your books here and have a chia latte afterwards.

    You have to eat fast :-), there are closing very early :-) It's even harder when you know that their pastas & spaghettis are delicious! :-)

    Servers were flustered and didn't have any idea who ordered what because you have to order and pay at the bar. Other than that pretty nice place to enjoy a drink in the sun.

    Super gezellige boekenwinkel! Een heel leuke sfeer in het algemeen. Het cafeetje aan de voorkant is ook een aanrader, maar wel geduld hebben want het duurt een tijdje tegen dat je bestelling komt.

    Voor mensen met tijd en geduld, het duurt meestal een hele poos tot je bediend wordt. Wel 1 vd leukste boekenwinkels in Gent met een eigenzinnige keuze.

    Leuk concept: de combinatie boeken en gezellig iets drinken, maar jullie vorige inrichting van de boekenwinkel was duidelijker, overzichtelijker. Ook veel te luide achtergrondmuziek.

    Wat een zalige winkel. Het geurt hier naar boeken en koffie. Ook een supercollectie kook- en kinderboeken en originele geschenkideeën.

    Zet u met een lekkere koffie aan het raam. Of met soep, want die is ook lekker.

    Geloof je niet meer in de kracht van papier, gewoon even in de nieuwe winkel binnenstappen. Opgelet voor uw portemonnee.
