Bar De Loge

Informazioni su questo posto Bar De Loge

Bar De Loge is the kind of gay bar that cities lose and then miss: a proper neighbourhood local with a loyal regular crowd, a relaxed atmosphere, and no particular agenda beyond providing a good space for Ghent's gay community to gather. The Jakobijnenstraat location is in the city centre, walkable from Ghent's main tourist sights and the other gay venues. The bar draws an older average age than Pink Flamingo — more 30s and 40s than students — and the atmosphere is correspondingly more conversational and less club-oriented. The beer selection is Belgian and treated with appropriate seriousness. De Loge is the bar you go to when you want a proper conversation rather than a night of dancing, and it fulfils that role with the particular grace of a venue that understands its community well. Regular customers include people who have been coming for twenty years, which says more about the bar than any description could.
