About MOK Coffee Leuven
MOK Coffee Leuven is where the Belgian roaster began in 2012, bringing a thoughtful approach to specialty coffee to Jens Crabbé’s hometown. On Diestsestraat, the bar serves two rotating single origins on a La Marzocco PB, alongside a changing selection of coffees prepared by hand brew. That makes it a useful stop for anyone who wants to compare espresso with filter coffee and explore how different origins express themselves in the cup.
House-made pastries and a sunny terrace give the space a relaxed feel, whether you are meeting friends or taking a break from Leuven’s shopping streets. The coffee is roasted by MOK in small batches, with seasonal sourcing and traceability at the heart of its approach.
