'T Vliegend Peerd

T Vliegend Peerd sits quietly by the church in Kanegem-Dorp, offering a straightforward, no-frills café experience that feels deeply rooted in village life. This is the kind of place where locals gather on sunny afternoons to enjoy an affordable beer on the terrace, soaking up the relaxed rhythm of this small Belgian community.

Inside, the atmosphere combines a welcoming, friendly vibe with a touch of lively ambiance that surprises visitors expecting a sleepy village café. It’s clearly a spot where neighbors pause to catch up, whether over a carefully brewed coffee or a casual drink. Coffee here draws a bit of praise—served with enough care to make it a worthwhile stop for a quiet moment or a quick pick-me-up during a stroll through Kanegem.

The terrace faces the village square, making it ideal for warm days when outdoor seating adds to the casual charm. Families, longtime locals, and casual visitors blend into a scene that feels genuine rather than staged for tourists. Service tends to be friendly and familiar, reinforcing the sense of community rather than a purely transactional stop.

Those looking for a relaxed late afternoon or early evening spot to unwind after exploring Tielt’s surroundings will find T Vliegend Peerd suits well. It’s neither a buzzing nightlife hub nor a gourmet café, but a comfortably lively, approachable local watering hole that fits naturally into life in Kanegem.
