Mijn favoriete Jazz bar. Het staat in alle toeristische boekjes aangeschreven als must-do, maar vele toeristen slagen er niet in om het te vinden. Let op een klein steegje op de Groentemarkt. Perfect café om gezellig te genieten in de avond.

Very cool hidden place. Only open during summer (dubble check online for opening hours). It is a very nicely made open-air bar. So only go there if good weather! At night there is always a camp fire. You probably wont find any tourists here :).

A must do for every visitor of Ghent. You can meet Pol, who makes his own Jenever in all kind of flavours (its the juniper-flavored national and traditional liquor of the Netherlands and Belgium, from which gin evolved). Go take some shots for a good start of the evening or just warm up a little.
