Grabbed a burger with some friends last week while visiting Mons. This place is tucked away close…read moreto city center. It has an awesome outside dining space with fire pits in the tables for winter dining. Inside has a pub atmosphere. As for the food, I got The Old Country burger which was okay. I ordered the large but it wasn't much bigger than my friends who got a regular size burger. The fries were more like chips, but the truffle aioli was fantastic. They didn't have a dessert menu which was a disappointment. The service was really slow, but the food came pretty quick. Overall I'd eat there again.

Quite a new bar in Mons and quite a different kind of bar. It's nice to have a bar that isn't…read morereally a cafe. This place specializes in cocktails but, to me anyway, they're not cheap cocktails - 7 to 9 euros - or maybe I'm just cheap. There is just about every kind of drink you may want from mojitos to many different beers to drinks that I've never heard of. I was there on a Thursday and the place got crowded but not overbearing. The crowd seems to be more mature than the local student population (probably due to the prices) and many seemed to have come right from their jobs to have a drink, being in suits and ties. They also have a couple tv screens and as I was leaving they had a Europa League game on. Oh, great music too!

A beautiful space, ruined by spoilt bratty teenagers…read more The Good: The bar is beautiful - huge main room with plush couches and gorgeous wooden beams, and a lovely wooden terrace outside overlooking a Koi pond. The Bad: Even by Waterloo standards (a town of spoilt rich kids), this place is really overly pretentious, with snobby spoilt brats in polos with turned-up collars getting drunk, while their fake-tan, surgically-enhanced mothers and their sugar daddies eat in the restaurant next door. Also, the music is far too loud, but the hysterical screeching of the brats is far worse. I'm unlikely to go back

What a wonderful cocktail bar!…read more The space is intimate with seats ensured for every guest so no one is standing. The staff are experts and the cocktails were wonderful. I would recommend adding this to your travel plans when visiting Ghent.

The menu is unique and you have a lot to choose from--don't feel afraid to ask the staff for recommendations. They are very sweet, passionate and knowledgeable. Please try the Hylde-- it's my favorite. Made with elderflower and Jenever (a local equivalent to gin). If you're up for something fun and strange -- they have a fantastic drink made from asparagus juice and horseradish. If you're in the area and I mean anywhere in Belgium -- highly recommend making your way to this place. It's a gem!

Watch your wallet. Husband and I recently moved to Mons. Have been checking out the local venues…read more This is the only one so far that has tried to rip us off. Ordered two beers, an omelette and a sandwich. (Stale bread? With a boulangerie on every street? Really? But whatever.) When we asked the waiter for the check, he made a big show of adding it up in his head and then wrote 29 euro on a piece of paper. I guess because our French skills are so poor, he thought our math skills were as well. He tried to convince us that it was the correct amount until we insisted on seeing the menu. It should have been 19 euro. Busted. He just shrugged and gave us our change. No apologies. Not embarrassed or contrite at all. As we were leaving, I asked to speak to the owner. He said he didn't speak English, so I explained what happened in my crappy French. He understood. He stopped the waiter as he walked by and said something to him and then told us he was sorry. (He wasn't really.) Avoid the place. Plenty of other restaurants in the area. Who needs that?
