Café Den Turk
This venerable place dates way back to 1228, making it easily Ghent's oldest pub. But despite its 680+ years, it remains true to its roots as a local gathering spot, and is the kind of place where you go in alone and come out knowing a dozen people.

Café Trefpunt
Run by the organisers of the Gentse Feesten, most of the week this is a laid-back pub, but on Mondays there are DJs, jam sessions or live concerts.

Charlatan
For dancing in town, head to Charlatan. This is Ghent's biggest music bar, doing live gigs most Thursdays and Sundays. This stalwart bar and venue is a local institution for live bands, DJ sets and parties - check the website or in-house leaflets to see what's on or just head on in like everyone else.

Hotsy Totsy
Iridescent striped wallpaper, velveteen booths and Ella Fitzgerald et al in the background make Hotsy Totsy a favourite haunt on any given night, but it's positively hopping during live sessions (usually at least Tuesdays and Thursdays; gigs are posted on the website). The rear room doubles as a de facto gallery space for local artists.
