Sustainable quality coffee

At Mokabon, we have been committed to sustainable quality coffee for more than three decades.

In close cooperation with our Belgian partner, we are jointly committed to sustainable cultivation and delivery methods of high-quality green coffee beans. By choosing Mokabon Coffee, you contribute to sustainable development projects in coffee-producing countries.

Fresh coffee from our roastery

To let you enjoy the ultimate coffee experience and with an eye for the best quality, we roast our coffee fresh every week. We strongly believe in the importance of freshly roasted beans as this preserves the flavor and aromas at their best. Our Master Roaster, a true expert in the craft, guides this process with unparalleled skill and dedication. Our coffees are roasted Medium Roast, which ensures a pure taste balance that is wonderfully expressed by the mild roast. For a balanced taste, it is therefore best to choose medium roasted coffee.

Obviously one of the best coffees in the country and so nice that you can also order it online, so that you can easily enjoy it at home. Although a coffee in the Mokabon building itself cannot be compared to anything :)

Delicious fresh coffee from a local Belgian company delivered to your home. To smell Mysore is to come home. More than satisfied.

We already knew that the coffee is good. Delivery the next day as it should be. However, I had ordered the wrong thing, 4 kg ground instead of beans, was exchanged with a smile, super, and thank you.

Very nice coffee! In addition, the delivery went smoothly and Mokabon is also easily accessible by mail or telephone for questions and / or comments regarding orders. This personal approach is great.

Ghent's first coffee house

The history of the business goes back to 1937, when a young Italian settled here. There was a shop on the ground floor, and the coffee roaster in the basement. After the war it also became possible to enjoy a cup of coffee on the spot! Our authentic, wooden interior still exudes the nostalgic atmosphere of the 1940s and 1950s.

An oasis of peace in a world that is constantly moving

More than just a coffee house, Mokabon acts as a social connector, a refuge for those who want to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Here it's not just about the coffee, but about the experience, the connection and the moments of peace.

Coffee house Mokabon remains standing even after 85 years, even with Starbucks next door: "There is no WiFi available here." Many customers come here mainly to have a chat. That has always been the case and it should always remain that way. After during the past lockdown even more than ever.

If you like to enjoy a delicious cup of coffee, Mokabon is the place to be. Here you get your coffee and cappuccino with fresh whipped cream as standard and there is no WiFi. You are catapulted all the way back in time to 1937, the year Mokabon opened. Since then, time has also stood still nostalgically. The dark brown interior is as iconic as the fresh, home-roasted coffee beans.

In the shadow of a large 'new' Starbucks and hidden between a row of historic facades lies one of the oldest coffee bars in Ghent: Mokabon, a small authentic coffee shop that harks back to a folk coffee tradition.
