A little restaurant on the Oude Koornmarkt with good desserts. We arrived there after walking…read morethrough Antwerpen for hours looking for a nice place to have a piece of cake and some coffee. Unfortunately the owner was rude to us. He told us it was impossible to serve desert, we could only have dinner because "everyone in Antwerpen eats dinner between 18:00 and 20:00". When we told him we did not know that and were really in the mood for a piece of cake, he said "you should have done some research before leaving the house" We left the place but the owner relented and came after us. He gave us a table in the back and it turned out the restaurant was almost deserted. I had a macarone with chocolate mouse and raspberries, and my companion had the sachertorte. Both were good. Summing up: 3-4 stars for the food but only 1 star for customer service. On average a "meh" experience.

Been there a month ago. We wanted to have a cake and a drink but the owner was extremely rude. In…read moreother occasion tried their cheese cake that was ok.

OK guys - please don't come after me with a pitchfork, but these were just standard tasting to me…read more I waited in a line on a weekend morning and was pretty excited to try this place because of the line and the great Google reviews. Don't be deterred by the long line, it actually moves pretty quickly because most folks have a list in hand already of what they want. I ordered: - chocolate croissant (the one with chocolate on the inside, and chocolate and almonds on the outside): was fine, just your usually chocolate croissant from a bakery. Definitely better than what you'd get from a market, but I was anticipating more buttery and flakely goodness coming through. - ham and cheese croissant (this seemed the most popular since there was only one left in the display case): they heated it up for me. Decent amount of cheese flavor coming through - love cheese in general though so that probably helped. Again, pretty good, but I wasn't blown away. - Tiramisu cup: oh boy, I was most excited to try this and was let down a bit. Not enough of that coffee flavor coming through, just tasted a hint of it in the layers. Pretty cup, but lacked that flavor. The place is still good, just wasn't blown away unfortunately.

They have a wide selection of breads, rolls, pasties, and other confections. You can grab and go or…read moresit down in the back. Both pastries that we tried were fresh and very tasty.

I love the cosy atmosphere and the delicious drinks menu!…read more The weather was really beautiful and sunny and my husband and I decided to go for a nice, long walk and we stopped by Starfish & Coffee. The coffee is outstanding and my ginger lemonade was soooo delicious! To me a ginger drink has to be a bit spicy and the ginger lemonade didn't disappoint! To pair with my ginger drink I ordered a slice of banana bread. All of the reviews on Yelp were about the muffins, but I was in the mood for a slice of sweet bread and was a bit disappointed. It was okay but not outstanding. So if I go again I will give the muffins a try! But I'll warn you - be careful where you sit. Because it's a whole foods/eco friendly type cafe, you run the chance of sitting next to smelly people. We had to switch seats. Even the barista had to open the back door when they left to air out the place a bit haha.
