Always struggling to make up your mind? Or is it barely mid-morning and you’re already feeling a bit peckish? Then brunch is definitely your thing. In Ghent, they understand it all too well, which is why the city is bursting with amazing brunch spots. You can find everything from classic spreads to places that specialise in just one delicious treat. And it's not limited to the historic centre either, there are loads of fantastic brunch places tucked away in Ghent's outskirts too. Choosing might be hard, but you can really indulge.
Brunch all week long
Ah, brunch — that glorious moment when sweet pastries and hearty quiches come together. A brilliant idea, and in Ghent, you’ll be spoiled for choice everywhere, even during weekdays! Fancy a brunch surrounded by washing machines? Or somewhere that feels like grandma’s place? Maybe you need a spot with a handy play area for the kids? You're in luck, as there’s a weekday brunch place for everyone; perfect for your city break or a relaxed start to a day of exploring.
Weekend brunch
Ghent locals are serious about enjoying life, and at the weekend they take it up a notch. A long, lazy brunch is a must. Plenty of diners and other spots lay on lavish brunch menus at weekends, and some restaurants even go all-out with special, one-off brunch events. Don't miss out, and the best bit is that you don’t even have to get up early!
