Rococo ★ 4.1
Rococo on the cobbles of the Patershol draws an arty, late crowd with the kind of playlist you only find in bars that care deeply about music and atmosphere.
Order: Belgian gin-and-tonic with local Ghent gin: the most popular late-night drink here.
Tip: The bar quietens after 02:00 when the clubs draw the youngest crowd; the later Rococo session is often more interesting than the early one.
