Retro post-office of the 50s revamped into a Culture Center. Dating from the '50s, architecture by Gaston Eysselinck and designed to be used as a post office until 1999. In 2001 the city of Ostend acquired the building and from 2012 it serves as a Cultural Center. The building offers several performance spaces used for the performing arts, literature and expositions. The main event is the annual 'Theater aan Zee' (Theater at Sea festival) in July, in which this building becomes the main hub for several performances from noon till late in the evening. 'Theater at Sea' involves many locations, not only restricted to this building. The Cultural Center is quite impressive and especially the panorama bar on top offers a grand view of the city. The only caveat is: the menu of the Cultural Café is totally overpriced, so avoid. At the time I visited they charged 19,20 EUR for fish sticks with mashed potatoes (see my photo of the menu) which is ridiculous. Although the philosophy may be culture should be accessible to everybody, this ain't the case if you want to have a bite at the Cultural Café. If you have two kids who simply want to eat fish sticks with mashed potatoes it will cost you nearly 40 EUR (see photo of menu prices).
Nice climate, although in my opinion there's more of an industrial than calm and relaxing climate in the room. Something I regret is that all the dishes you order for breakfast are served at once, leaving some cold by the time you finish up on it. Though what I appreciated was that the kitchen recognizes an error when one is made and identified by the customer. However, instead of offering a reduction on the price and a new dish is delivered, only the second option stands.
Great place ️
Great food, surprising menu, fast service. Free tap water at bar. Not too expensive. A great experience all together! You can also have food or a drink on the upper deck for a panoramic view. The menu on the roof terrace is slightly different.
always a pleasure. kitchen is open late but food always tastes as if it were made just for you. hands on staff. delicious homemade lemonades. this place is a gem for refined mouths and curious lookers at things.
