I've been to many Tiki Bars around the world and this is one of the best. Tom is an amazing bartender and puts a lot of care in every little detail of each beverage. If you're in Ghent, I highly recommend visiting this bar.

Gezellige plek in gent voor heerlijke cocktails. Toffe bediening en toffe sfeer. Sommige cocktails zorgen voor een show ervaring en het personeel never dissapoints!
