About

This small Oudburg café-bar pairs a broad beer list, including alcohol-free choices, with vegan takes on Belgian classics such as stoverij, vol-au-vent and Gentse waterzooi. Vintage décor, lounge seating and Johnny’s music make it a relaxed stop; the menu is nearly all vegan, though reports note a dairy-cheese option, and dishes may change with availability.
