LikeBirds isn't your average desk rental — it's a freelancer-only coworking community housed in the historic Eskimofabriek, a converted industrial building on Ghent's Wiedauwkaai with soaring ceilings and natural light pouring through every corner. Self-employed status is required to join, which means the people around you are genuinely in the same boat: founders, creatives, and independent professionals who get it. The space is designed around how real work actually happens — a quiet, focused open floor, phone booths for calls, three hireable meeting rooms, and a social kitchen where "slow networking" lunches bring the community together without the awkward name-badge energy. There's a rooftop terrace with city views for when you need a breath of air, adjustable height desks, 24/7 access, and free parking right at the door. A regular calendar of workshops, trainings, and community events keeps things alive. Come try it all with a free day — workspace, welcome tour, and a community lunch included.
23K Wiedauwkaai, 9000, Gent, Belgium
LikeBirds sits on the Eskimofabriek industrial site at Wiedauwkaai 23K, on the urban fringe of Ghent near Dampoort station — close enough to the city centre to feel connected, far enough to skip the noise. The site itself has its own small ecosystem: a pole dance studio (NoXcuse), a CrossFit box (Crooks Crossfit), a print shop (Zwart op Wit), a physio practice (Fourward Kine), a bag designer (Helen b), and a card shop (Kaart Blanche) are all neighbours. Julie's House, known for its tarts and pastries, is nearby for those essential mid-morning breaks. By car, free parking is right in front of the building — a genuine rarity in Ghent. By bike, the site is easily accessible along Wiedauwkaai. By public transport, Dampoort train station and several bus lines put you within easy reach. On arrival, follow the LikeBirds sandwich board at street level.

I love this space for it's creative vibe. Vicky Persyn is really the best host and knows how coworking works. Learn more about Likebirs on The Workspace Hub Podcast.

Whenever I go to LikeBirds, I always wake up even more eager to give it my all that day. As a young entrepreneur, I find being part of LikeBirds incredibly inspiring. I was never a big fan of networking, but here it just happens naturally. I get to know people during lunch or coffee breaks, which leads to spontaneous and very pleasant collaborations. I also find the flexible credit system very useful. That freedom suits me. Due to COVID, I unfortunately haven't had the chance to participate in any of the typical activities yet, such as the trips, the soup days, or to dance the night away at the LikeBirds parties. But I'm already really looking forward to it. In short: inspiration, good conversations, and a lot of enthusiasm.

Today I was back at LikeBirds for the first time since it moved to the former Eskimofabriek two years ago. Vicky Persyn has once again managed to create a warm and beautiful coworking space. The interior design is very well done. On-site you can feel the private community management. And the roof terrace must be a real highlight in summer.
