Lekker, maar niets speciaal

Ideaal voor een leuke avond met mijn dochtertje van 9j. Genoeg keuze die ook haar bevalt. Gezellig plekje in het centrum van Gent. Heel veel zout op onze frietjes, voor de rest simpel en lekker eten.

Pros: Enkel Vegan , Leuke kinderopties , Beste chocolade taart ❤️

Cons: Teveel zout op de frietjes

Not the best, but a nice concept

Pay one price and take as much food as you like. Offering was nice, but do not expect fine dining.
A cheap place to eat

Pros: All vegan, Grab what you like

Cons: Not really that special

Great concept

The ambiance isn’t great and the acoustics are bad. Food is tasty and there’s lots of options though.

Pros: Nice concept, Cheap for dinner

Cons: Not a cosy ambiance

Great Buffet

Vegan all you can eat buffet. There were 7 hot dishes, a salad bar with different sauces and dessert: The hot dishes were simple, but very tastefull with the right amount of herbs and sauce. The salad bar offers you a wide range of different greens and sauces and a delicious lemoncake was forsesee as dessert.
I really enjoyed the food and the different options here, so i can recommend this place.

Vegan buffet

Great place to have a copious meal! You’ll always find something you love. I wouldn’t describe it as super healthy or sophisticated, but it’s perfect when you’re not in the mood to choose or when you don’t mind oil, salt and greasier dishes.

Pricey but okay

Wasn't as impressed with this place as much as I thought I would be. It might just be that the dishes on offer in the buffet on this particular day weren't the finest. I also think for the price it should be a free buffet and not just one you can visit one time. Handy if you're looking for food and your nearby.

Pros: Vegan food

Cons: Expensive and mediocre

Enorme tegenvaller..

Na veel aanraden van vrienden dat Komkommertijd écht geweldig is en lekker eten had besloot ik met mijn weekendje weg in Gent daar te gaan eten.

Het bleek een enorme tegenvaller te zijn.

Veel van het voedsel was of compleet smaakloos of een overdosis aan zout..

De inrichting was ook niet bepaald uitnodigend en zat je behoorlijk dicht tegen de mede gasten..

Best wel jammer.

Very disappointing: bland & uninspiring food

The food offering is incoherent, absolutely none of the dishes were enjoyable; they all lacked flavour, some dishes were overcooked into a mush. Feels like it’s made by people who want to give vegan/vegetarian restaurants a bad reputation. Chucked most of the food in the bin. Would give 1 star but app does not allow it. Noticed many positive older reviews of this place; I can only assume a change of chef and/or owners.

Pros: (None)

So much delicious choice!

Loved this place - an incredible range of food and all you can eat. I have a small appetite so tend to avoid this sort of thing but even I managed a plate and a half and wished I could fit in more. So delicious! Will definitely be back here next time I'm in Ghent!

Pros: Affordable, Amazing choice, Delicious

Amazing food, nice and cosy atmosphere

We were here on a nice sunny evening, enjoying the all-you-can-eat buffet. They served a variety of cold and warm dishes, all of which were vegan, and also served soup as an appetizer and a nice chocolat dessert. The food was good, the service was friendly. Another nice aspect was, that the prices were quite low, which you usually don't find when you have an all-you-can-eat vegan buffet. All in all a nice place to grab a bite when you are in Ghent.

Pros: Good food, Friendly staff, Not too expensive

Great vegan buffet!

All you can eat buffet with lots of tasty choices, all of them vegan. Warm dishes, salad bar, soup, and desserts. You can definitely eat your money's worth in great food here!

There's also a lunch buffet, but I haven't tried that.

Lieblingsbuffet

Tolles, abwechslungsreiches, fast komplett veganes Buffet für super Preis. Wir haben ausgiebig geschlemmt und können sagen: wir waren noch nie im Leben so dermaßen und langanhaltend satt!!! Lohnt sich definitiv und gemütlich war es auch!

Bring an appetite

You pay a fixed price, no matter how much you eat, so you better bring an appetite, or else you might be in for an expensive meal.
Be sure to leave some room for dessert, because usually it's worth it!
There's so much to choose from, and luckily, you can try it all.
Enjoy :-)

Pros: So many choices

Wow - love it!

The €17 all-you-can-eat buffet was amazing - constantly replenished with fresh food and new dishes throughout the evening. My biggest regret was not pacing myself and staying longer, in order to taste more new dishes as they came out.

Standouts for us were the lasagna and the mushroom & seitan stroganoff, but overall everything was delicious! Our non-vegan friends were also impressed.

Great value, including some lovely wine, and really friendly and welcoming service! The atmosphere and surroundings were great! We’ll be back next time we go to Ghent.

Pros: Great value, Excluding quality, Lovely staff and atmosphere

Fully vegan buffet restaurant

15€ lunch weekdays, 17€ dinner or weekend all you can eat buffet. I went on a Sunday they had a big salad buffet, 7 warm dishes, a soup and fruits & cake for dessert. The aubergine tempey dish was to bath in😄very professional restaurant atmosphere (I would love to bring my parents). I arrived shortly before they closed and it was still very crowded, maybe reserve a table for a group. 1€ discount for students or veggie-club members (eva, etc.)
Also options for take away. Some outdoor tables, as well.

No credit card payment and and ATM is ~10min walk.

Pros: All you can eat

Cons: No credit card payment, only cash or belgium debit

This was a one-off visit.

It is a buffet and you can also take it with you. We had chosen to take away. We had spinach soup and rice, spring rolls, mushroom in a jacket and sort of vegetable curry. The soup was okay, the mushrooms were also okay. But I'm sorry to say; the rest ended up in the trash.

Cons: Not tastfull

Vegan buffet

This place does buffet only, take away of eat in. Prices are a little steep but it is all you can eat so come with an empty stomach and you'll definitely get your money's worth. Drinks are separate but the selection is good and also vegan.
The buffet menu changes daily but my experience was good, thought I wish they'd brought out more of the vegan kaaskroketten because I only had 1 and then they were gone and the empty tray was replaced by something else!

Pros: all you can eat, cozy atmosphere

Cons: expensive, short walk outside the center
