This is my first review for an antique store... Really it's a pickers little heaven. My family has…read morea thing for picking and have been picking in the neighbourhood literally over a decade. This place didn't used to be so big but it's pretty big now and just like a brownie, it hit the spot. Sadly they are not in the business of negotiating prices which is half the fun but their prices are very reasonable and their pickings are of quality. Their variety is large, from old farm sinks to silver pocket watches you'll find your treasure. Everything is organised in rooms but still messy enough to get your hands dirty and work your way through a pile of old telephones... The find is always the most exiting part of being a picker!

Cool little place to sample some spirits, some beers available as well, nice clean look in the shop…read morearea, rear shop area with windows overlooking a canal, and a small, secluded basement level terrace right on the water. Bathroom was ok, located on the second floor. Only one employee while we were there, but she was very friendly. Good for a quick stop /break.

I actually discovered that this place is located in the only wooden building in Ghent. Apparently…read moreall of the wooden buildings, except this one, were pulled down after the Great Fire of London (which goes to show how old this building actually is). However, the store is far from old, rather it is a specialist retailer of alcohol. While he does have a small variety of beers, it is the spirits that seem to be the focus here. The owner is incredibly knowledgeable, and also incredibly chatty. Don't expect to get trappist beers here, namely because they are sold everywhere else - he is only interested in rare beers, namely craft or micro-brews. He does have a small outdoor area downstairs but there are only three tables, so it can get a little cramped. Certainly a place to check out, especially if you like rare and exotic alcohol.
