General Info
The Occidental Belgian Beer Huis is located on Auckland’s historic Vulcan Lane and is one of Auckland’s oldest buildings.Today, we serve up a mouth-watering menu of mussel pots, seafood platters and European fare. Our beer taps are ever-changing with an array of Belgian and craft specialties. For something different, try our extensive collection of bottled Belgian beer. Our staff will be happy to recommend a great match for your meal.And while you’ll come for the food and beer, you’ll stay for the atmosphere. Our cosy pub was built in 1870 as a high-end hotel and restaurant complete with billiard room and reading room.For 130 years it has welcomed people from all walks of life, served up hundreds of thousands of meals and poured millions of pints. The design and décor all reflect its fascinating past. Even the ghost that is rumoured to emerge from the basement on occasion doesn’t want to leave!

We were there for an evening dinner for our friend's birthday, must say we were very satisfied with the delicious food and their awesome service. They even turn our dessert into an impromptu Birthday cake . Thank you and we are very grateful.

My review is, by necessity, restricted to the pots of mussels and Hoegaarden. I can never get past ordering these, everything else on the menu is untested by me. I like to be adventurous as a rule but make an exception for here.

The staff are, as previously noted, friendly and professional. The ambience is cheerful and welcoming. We didn't order food, but what we saw looked and smelled delicious. I'd go here a lot if I lived in the city.

I waited far too long for my meal. Not the type of service I expect from a high end restaurant that charges big bucks for their service and meals. Once I did eventually get my meal, I was pleasantly surprised at how well it was cooked. Next time, I hope I am not waiting as long.

Excellent place for drinks. We visit this place regularly. Love their beers. They have a very large dining area. They have got variety of NZ muscles and they taste amazing. Another signature dish is garlic prawns. Staff is super friendly and service is quick. This place is always crowded especially on friday evening. Food menu is quite appealing.
