Canteen

During the day you can have lunch or a coffee here, work on your laptop or read a book, at a table or in the lounge corner by the piano. In the evening the canteen becomes a café, with its own drinks menu and small plates to share.

On the menu

• Lunch (12:00–14:00): a dish of the day for € 15. A small buffet on your plate, with for example a dip, a salad, roasted vegetables, a slice of quiche or a stew, different every week.
• Fresh soup with sourdough bread
• Evening (17:00–21:00): small plates to share, € 6 to € 10 per plate. A few plates make a full dinner.
• Homemade cake and pie, and biscuits with your coffee

Everything is plant-based. Gluten-free is always possible; let us know about other allergies in advance.

Every Wednesday chef Ferre cycles his cargo bike to Studio Plantaardig, a young food forest in Herent, for vegetables, fruit and herbs. What grows there sets the menu of the week. The sourdough bread and biscuits come from Bakker Bram. Barman Stan put together a drinks menu of mostly local and homemade drinks, with and without alcohol.

Reservations

You don’t need to book for lunch or an evening. Coming with 5 or more? Let us know in advance through the contact form.

On bar nights

On bar nights there is often something extra: art, music, an open piano or a workshop. See what’s planned in the calendar.

On Thursday evening

From 18:00 to 22:00 the High Tech Lab and the Graphic Lab are open, the Tool Library from 18:00 to 20:00. Curious what people are making? Have a look after dinner.

Organise something yourself

Want to do something in the canteen yourself? There are three ways:

• Play, show or teach something on a bar night: a gig, an exhibition or a workshop.
• Run the kitchen yourself, for example with a pop-up at the weekend.
• Rent the canteen for your own party: see rentals.

Tell us about your idea through the contact form.
