BORIS & MAURICE

Verdict

Boris & Maurice has held the Michelin Bib Gourmand in both 2024 and 2025 — Michelin's marker for exceptional cooking at a price that doesn't require justification. At the €€ price point, it is one of the most credible farm-to-table bookings in the Ghent area, and a Google rating of 4.8 across 258 reviews suggests the room earns that recognition consistently, not just on a good night. Book here if you want seasonal, produce-led cooking without the €€€€ commitment of Belgium's starred circuit. The booking difficulty is low, which makes this easier to access than comparable-quality addresses elsewhere in the region.

About Boris & Maurice

The farm-to-table format at Boris & Maurice means the kitchen is built around what's available now. In practice, that shapes both what ends up on the plate and how the menu shifts across the year. During the current season, expect the sourcing logic to be most visible — winter root vegetables, preserved ingredients, and whatever the Belgian countryside is offering this time of year. The kitchen team , James Vetter, Adriana Osuna, Victor Molina, and Sean Agoliati , runs a collaborative structure, which is less common in this price bracket and tends to produce menus with more range than a single-chef operation.

The Antwerpsesteenweg address puts Boris & Maurice in Sint-Amandsberg, a quieter residential stretch northeast of central Ghent. It is not a destination in the tourist-circuit sense, which is likely part of why the quality-to-price ratio holds: lower overhead, a local clientele, and a kitchen focused on cooking rather than spectacle. For a food-oriented traveller, that combination is worth the short detour from the city centre.

Two consecutive Bib Gourmands carry specific meaning. Michelin awards the Bib not as a consolation for venues that didn't make the star cut, but as a distinct recognition for value-driven quality. Holding it back-to-back confirms the kitchen is consistent, not lucky. In the Belgian context, where the starred circuit includes addresses like Hof van Cleve in Kruishoutem, Zilte in Antwerp, and Boury in Roeselare, a Bib Gourmand at €€ is a genuinely strong position , you are accessing credentialed cooking without the pricing structure of the three-star tier.

On Takeout and Delivery

Farm-to-table cooking is one of the formats where the gap between dining in and eating off-premise is most pronounced. The sourcing decisions, the plating logic, and the seasonal specificity of a dish designed around freshness do not survive a delivery window as well as, say, a bistro burger or a bowl of ramen. At Boris & Maurice, there is no confirmed information about an active takeout or delivery offering. If you are considering off-premise for convenience, treat this as a venue that rewards sitting down. The €€ price point means the in-room experience is already accessible , this is not a case where takeout is a sensible workaround to a high-spend commitment. The practical recommendation: book a table. If you cannot, check directly with the venue about any takeout options, as policies at this level can change seasonally and are not always published.

For food-focused travellers exploring the area, the eat-in format is also where farm-to-table restaurants communicate what they are actually doing , the sourcing decisions are visible in the menu language, the staff know the provenance, and the dishes make more sense in context. That context disappears in a takeout container.

FAQ

Is the tasting menu worth it at Boris & Maurice?

Can Boris & Maurice accommodate groups?

• Seat count is not confirmed in our data. For groups larger than four, it is worth calling ahead or emailing the venue directly to confirm capacity and whether a set menu applies for larger parties.

What should I order at Boris & Maurice?

• Specific dishes are not confirmed in our data, and with a farm-to-table kitchen the menu shifts with what's seasonal. The standing recommendation: ask the team what came in most recently.

Follow their lead on the current season's strongest dishes rather than arriving with a fixed target.

Is Boris & Maurice good for a special occasion?

• Yes, with the right expectations. At €€ with a Bib Gourmand, this is a strong special-occasion choice if the occasion calls for quality cooking over ceremony. It is not the right venue if you need white-glove service or a grand room , for that, addresses like Bozar in Brussels or Bartholomeus in Heist are better fits. But for a birthday dinner or anniversary where the food is the point and the bill won't hurt, Boris & Maurice delivers.

• At €€, yes. The Michelin Bib Gourmand is the most relevant benchmark here , it is specifically awarded to venues where quality is high relative to what you pay. Two consecutive years of that recognition, combined with a 4.8 Google rating across 258 reviews, makes the value case direct. For context, the starred alternatives in the Belgian circuit , Willem Hiele, De Jonkman, Castor , operate at €€€€. Boris & Maurice gives you Michelin-recognised cooking at a fraction of that spend.
