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!

Fantastic watering hole for after work drinks, which accommodated us superbly for a double farewell! The atmosphere was truly buzzing and whilst I'm not a beer drinker I was very impressed with the wine selection and I thoroughly enjoyed my evening. I didn't try any food but had strong recommendations for the mussels and was distracted by the platters of fish and chips! Awesome service from the staff and the bathrooms were impeccable too!

Great spot for a drink - nice atmosphere and good selection. Once had an issue with a double payment for a drink (I ordered and paid for two drinks for my friend and I and when my friend went to collect got charged for their drink), when I let the staff know they told me I was mistaken, but when my friend went over and told them a little more forcefully, managed to get a drink refunded. That was a blip, but I won't let one experience mar the place overall. It's a really nice place to relax, and provided you tell your friends you've already paid for their drink, everything should be all good!

Great atmosphere to hang out with friends in. Food seems to be uniformly good and I have always found the staff to be lovely and friendly.
