Patisserie Caruso
When it comes to bread and pastries, Caruso is a household name in Ostend. From the tableware to the interior with the velvet sofas: everything exudes luxury and comfort. The bakers of Caruso are known far and wide for their delicious pistolets, typical Belgian small bread rolls. In this bakery, just off Visserskaai customers come and go from 7 am on, either to buy bread or to have breakfast on the spot. Britons who find it hard to miss their typical breakfast will be in the right place here because a hearty English breakfast is one of the house specialities. Those who prefer to keep it lighter will be spoiled for choice with a healthy breakfast consisting of lots of freshly cut fruit, muesli and yoghurt.

Expo&Kafie
"I'll have fried eggs and an etching, please." A strange order? Yes, but possible at Expo & Kafie, because the art you see in their interior can be bought on the spot. Go for a luxurious breakfast, enjoy a homemade granola bowl or combine a toast guacamole and smoked salmon with a small savoury breakfast. In short, plenty of choice and something for everyone.

The cultural centre CC De Grote Post is the beating cultural heart of Ostend. In this former post office, many a culture lover is moved and inspired by the varied performances on the programme.
