Yummy ontbijt

Altijd lekker ontbijt/brunch. Konden zitten ook al gaf de website aan dat voor brunch er eigenlijk met reservatie gewerkt werd.

Pros: Redelijke keuze, Zeer lekker, Snel bediend

Cons: Prijzig voor wat het soms maar is

Disappointing

First of all, one person in our group has a severe milk proteïne allergy. She now has a rash and breathing problems. One ( hopefully very improbable) reason for this might be the food itself, the other reason might be that the hygiene is not great. The ice cubes for the iced latte were taken with bare hands, the menu card was dirty, the dishes are done by hand, and very quickly.
We had pie and a caramel bar with nuts, plus (iced) coffee. The caramel bar was good. The pie, on the other hand, was super heavy. Conclusion: The food was not great, one person with cows milk allergy got sick, and the place lacked in hygiene, so we would like to rate this one with only one star.

Pros: Good location in Center of Ghent

Bon Breakfast

Since we are usually not too eager on the sweet side of food and especially not at morning, visiting a place like Madam Bakster is rather unusual for us.

This cafe though felt perfectly right and I didnt hold back one minute on ordering pancakes topped with acorn sirup and whipped cream. Surprisingly it did not turn out too sweet and I enjoyed every single bite. The 2nd piece of cake afterwards was finally enough but until then it was smooth sailing all along 😂

The cherry on top of the whipped cream was the cozy ambiente and super friendly service.

Simply divine

We were hungry, so we chose the chia pudding, the ‘egg’ salad toast, the oat pancakes and the scones. A bit much for two people, but we were greedy 🫣. It was all delicious and flavours were spot on! We will definitely be back!

Pros: Very tasty, All homemade

Cons: A bit of a wait to get your food, but worth it

Definitely visit while in Ghent

I stumbled upon their website while we were in Ghent for a holiday and had to go to Madam Bakster for their healthy sweets. I had the lemon avocado cake and it was so delicious and refreshing. Definitely recommend

Pros: Healthy vegan sweets, Cute interior

Good vegan coffee shop

Great sweets/desserts and heart warming drinks. They also have refreshing drinks, including vegan milkshakes but didn't have the chance to try them out.
Menu not available in English but the staff is super nice and will explain everything.

This is an amazing place for vegan AND gluten free!

We loved this place - please visit if you can. Lots of vegan and gluten free options. There was only one ‘cake’ my coeliac daughter couldn’t have (it’s usually the opposite, if that!).
They had brunch items such as pancakes, hummus and avocado on toast, vegan ‘egg’ on toast, chia pudding etc. we sampled a few different cakes: passion fruit/chocolate tart, lemon/avocado tart and the vanilla cheesecake. All were superb. When we are next in Ghent we will be back!
The pancakes could be gluten free, as well as the toast. Chia and rice pudding options too.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Lots of gluten free options , Friendly staff

Cons: No vegan waffles anymore

Breakfast

Had a good breakfast with latte (almond) and pancakes with granola, berry’s and banana. Nice that everything is vegan but it was not that special. Location is 1 KM from the heart of Gent.

Pros: All vegan

Cons: Self ordering at the bar , Not placed central

One of my favourite vegan places

Best hazelnut cappuccinos ever! Love their ‘egg’ salad toast and pancakes! The chocolate granola is one of the best granolas I ever had.
Def try their pies! The muffin and cookie are also my fave!
So cozy interior!

Lekkere taart

Ook heel lekkere chai lattes. Qua taart heb je verschillende keuze. Opgelet: het zit er vaak vol. Je kunt reserveren.

Great place

We go here every time we visit Ghent, and we were never disappointed. Only downside to this place is the limited seating, but usually there's some place left on the benches next to the window.
Their homemade milks go great with their coffee, and the caramel popcorn you get with every order is a nice addition. They have great breakfast options, including pancakes and rice pudding.

Pros: Great food and coffee, Nice place

Cons: Limited seating
