Fries are one of my major weakness. In fact, it was my only food source for lunch in high school. I…read moreliterally had fries every.single.day. I managed to remain thin though. Go figure. Anyhoo, I love just about anything that is fried. So of course, De Frietketel is right up my alley. We managed to stop by twice during our stay in Gent. It's fast food and it's cheap. Enough said. The fries are delish and the portion is huge. We also had Bitterballen, Bicky Burger & Bicky Rib. All were good. We stood in a fairly long line once. You order, get a number and pick up your food when called. The folks here are friendly and helpful. The place gets full with college kids. Cheap eats! Seating can be hard to get, but we never had a problem. Don't come in expecting gourmet and you won't be disappointed.

The fries were nice but nothing special. They have good belgian beers. The place itself is quite nice, modern, black-and-grey kinda atmostphere. Service was kind and efficient. A good spot!

Once you order the food is ready pretty quickly because the ribs are slow cooked and it is a straight forward menu.

Also, great beer selections. Order at the counter and wait at table. The building is interesting, with what seems to be a hidden hallway up above, overlooking the dining lounge. There is also a "to go" area in the back which seemed popular with locals. These dogs & beer were mouth-watering, and I'm not a fan of hot dogs nor of beer. Bon Appétit!

The atmosphere is cozy and interesting, as it was an old convent. There is a large beer menu and my husband who has celiac was able to have his first Belgium beer (gluten free - Super 8).

Atmosphere: 5/5. Set in an old convent, very cool interior. Small but cozy. There is a back yard…read morearea where you can sit when the weather is nice. The restaurant is in the middle of town within a few blocks to the main town square. The menu has pictures of the nunnery attire, maybe how they brewed their own beer? They only had it in Dutch, no English menu. Food: 3/5. Bland food, which is not uncommon for Flemish cuisine, but meat was also quite tough. We tried the 2 most popular dishes, Brochette Oud Clooster, and Rundsstoverij met Westmalle Dubbel, and were not impressed. Both bland. The brochette was supposed to be medium rare but came out well done. Dry and tough. The dipping sauce has a hint of curry but wasn't enough to carry the whole dish. The stew has a yummy base, I could pick out the beer flavors (Belgians truly have the best beers in the world). Meat pieces were tough, which is a shame given this is a stew. They should have use a fattier cut of beef like chuck. Meme Gusta has a similar but much more flavorful Flemish stew. The no-bake cheese cake was light and refreshing. Good for 1 person, small to share between 2. Service: 2/5. They had no English menu. At this point I have come to Belgium enough to pick out a few familiar terms, but I would have liked to be able to see what other dishes they had. Had to aggressively flag down waiter whenever we needed something. they also charge €1.80 for tap water. This place is popular enough even for locals that one can't get in without reservations. We were told they only have 2 slots: 6-8 or 8-10. We picked the earlier one. The restaurant was only half full until about 7.
