The Heritage Belgian Beer Cafe reviews

4 Star Review by A. Live

Good food, great atmosphere. Not so busy even over weekends. The great thing about Belgian Cafe is the variety of their beers which caters for different tastes from different audience. The range covers from authentic rich tastes for the blokes to the fruity flavours and low level of alcohol for the ladies. Food is superb. Mussels and chips are strange combinations for some ethnic groups but Belgian Cafe does it very well. I had friends and families visiting from overseas in different age groups and they all seemed impressed; and entertained, thanks to the alcohol. A tip of note would be that they offer $20 mussels on Wednesdays (as compared to around $35). So one can enjoy the same quality of food at a discounted price!

4 Star Review by Michael Hsu

Had Belgian Bier Cafe in mind on the way to this heritage venue, but was surpised about the change of hand for the business. Aesthetically Malt Shovel did a great job giving the venue a fresh modern touch whilst maintaining the heritage characteristics of the original building. There is also a fresh new range of beers on selection which I thoroughly enjoyed. The menu was also excellent including my dry rubbed beef brisket complimented by some deliciously crispy crinkle cut chips. We caught them.on their first opening day so the waitresses are mostly still in training which as a consequence affected the service. However the wait staff were all friendly and I am confident the service quality will catch up with time.

Love coming here for the $20 mussels every Wednesdays. Theres over 6 varieties of flavours to choose from. The traditional is always nice. Siem and blue cheese is quite tasty too. All serves of mussels comes with a side of chips. Which combined, will fill you up. Well worth it. Generally no reservation required for a small group of people. Also ordered the salted caramel popcorn waffle. $16 for only 1 slice of waffle!!! Ridiculously over priced and the waffles were soggy. Shocked, disappointed and never getting desserts from here again..

4 Star Review by Minx Chique

Went there for my birthday dinner, and even on a Wednesday it was really busy! Or it could be the Wednesday specials $20 mussels, normally $38 per kilo. Simply enjoyed the mussels, wasn't interested in other dishes. Maybe I'll give them a try next time. Maybe... Service was great, food was good. Definitely come back.

4 Star Review by Huajue Zhu

I like the decorations inside, even though the underground bricks seem a bit frightening to me. However, the light is not very suitable for taking photos. The mussels are fresh and well cooked, and they are available in many different flavours in very affordable price. The apple pie is also delicious and there are many varieties of Belgian beers! But it's definitely not a super good taste restaurant, so only four stars for it.

2 Star Review by A Bunny Yay

Lost it's original charm and old style appeal that suited the food and country of origin. Used to take friends from Europe to visit here and they loved the venue before the renovation. Now it is so brightly lit and blinding, which does not suit a night out at the Rocks at all. Dim the lights and go back to the old roots, the new renovation looks like a deli and tourist trap. The food was lovely, drinks are amazing. But I am not returning to a cookie cutter place with no charm or atmosphere. What a shame.
