Starbucks — Restaurant in Ghent

Stepping into the Starbucks inside Sint-Pieters Gent train station feels like entering another era.

The grand high ceilings, ornate wall decorations, and soft play of light through stained glass windows create an atmosphere of quiet beauty and history. The wooden floors add warmth, making the space feel authentic and timeless, truly one of the most beautiful Starbucks I’ve ever visited.

There are about twenty tables, with both chairs and comfortable sofas inviting you to linger. The music is soft and acoustic, blending gently into the background, never intrusive, simply part of the charm.

Yet, amidst all this beauty, there is a touch of sadness. The staff, though efficient, seemed distant and weary, offering few smiles even when met with kindness. Perhaps the constant flow of travelers and tourists has dulled their warmth. It’s a small shadow in an otherwise luminous place.

Still, for anyone passing through Gent, this café is worth a visit not just for coffee, but to pause and admire the elegance of history meeting...

This Starbucks is pretty much like others in terms of products and service, but what truly sets it apart is its location in Ghent’s historic train station. The decor preserves the charm of the old station, creating a cozy and unique atmosphere that’s a bit different from most Starbucks locations.

I visit this one frequently since I spend a lot of time in Ghent, and it’s a convenient stop before catching a train. This particular Starbucks stands out for its quick service and the fact that it’s rarely overcrowded. There are plenty of tables, so I can almost always find a spot to sit down and relax while I wait. The space is spacious and well laid-out, making it great for working, having a quick coffee, or simply killing some time before the next train.

In summary, it’s a typical Starbucks with the added bonus of a historical and comfortable setting. Perfect if you’re looking for a quiet spot amidst the hustle and bustle of...

Honestly, I am going to have to really hold back to not violate ToS for the review.

I have ordered from this place many times, and now often than not, they put the coffee and drinks in the delivery bags without anything to cover or secure the coffee inside. Which leads to coffee being spilled all over the place in the bag, which then leaks all over the floor in the hallways in our apartment building, and then leaks on our apartment's floor because the bag is completely saturated with coffee

I genuinely have to wonder what kind of people they employ, that think it's ok to bit cover their coffee when being delivered by bike across the city. It wouldn't be so bad if it happened once, but it happens constantly, and consistently and they never ever learn.

Honestly wouldn't ever order from them if there was coffee worth a damn to order...
