Hours: Mon-Sun 11:00 am - 2:00 am
Welcome to The Public House - Ghent's first "gastropub." GastroPub - It's just a fancy word that people invented to describe places that put a creative spin on traditional pub food - and charge you eight bucks for fries. We put a lot of work into creating those spins, though, like making nearly everything in-house and using as many locally or regionally produced products as possible. We hope you enjoy.
