Restaurant De Koolputten:

De Koolputten is characterized by a unique atmosphere. It is the perfect blend of restaurant, B&B, exhibition space and event location, all in an enchanting, historic setting. On top of that, the phenomenal views of the Durme and the Mirabrug will take your breath away.
Even our cuisine will amaze you. Our chef loves to get creative with the traditional dishes and serves extraordinary culinary delights, always at an affordable price. Truly everyone can enjoy in our gastronomic restaurant in Waasmunster, near Ghent and Antwerp.
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View
These former coal shafts overlooking the Mirabrug bridge have been carefully restored and are now home to a comfortable B&B, an exhibition area, an events venue and this restaurant. A trendy, pleasant setting in which to sample contemporary fare with classical roots, with a very open feel. Up-to-date cuisine with gastronomic flair.
