Voor 1ste keer eens naartoe geweest om optreden van Tina Rosita te zien. Gezellig cafeetje, leuke muziek en soms live optredens. Vriendelijke bediening en niet lang wachten.

Wat een fijne ontdekking is dit zeg. Een prachtig café met een fijn terras en een super vriendelijke cafébazin. Als je nog es echt een café wil zoals het "moet", kom dan naar hier. Het is een ritje vanuit Gent meer dan waard. Met de fiets of de auto, want met de bus is Assenede nu slecht bereikbaar sinds de rechtstreekse lijn is afgeschaft. Open vanaf dat het open is, maar zeker vanaf 10 u.(ik mocht om 9 u al binnen want "het was toch al gekuist") En PSsss.... de koffie is er lekker!
