De Fontein Belgian Beer Café

Awesome location, the balcony is facing the mission bay beach. Great for outdoor lunch during sunny days. The ice chocolate is delicious and plenty. Grilled mussel is okay, I expect hot and spicy when ordering the one with chili, but seem it use pickled chili sour taste.

As a belgian, I was so happy to find this place. The beer choices is amazing, so many good beer from home, I was really happy. It is great to find a piece of Belgium out here in New Zealand. The only negative point would be the fries, Real belgian fries are cooked twice so they taste nice and crispy : the fries we got looked so pale and sick ...but it is a small detail. Staff was great : I would recommend, and if you are belgian in Auckland , go there !!

The quality of the mussels for ‘Mussel Monday’ was severely disappointing. Absolutely tiny and had clearly not been kept well as there was barely anything inside the shells…nUnfortunately the fries weren’t any better, stale and over cooked :/

We went there at the weekend. It was cloudy, so it wasn't too busy.nThe waitress was nice and gave us outside sitting so we could enjoy the scenery.nThe food was nice with a good match with the beer.nWe just got the finger food, and it was deliciousnOverall, we enjoyed our time there and certainly will go there again.

Had dinner with one of my sisters. Firstly it was a nice atmosphere. We could hear ourselves talk without being over powered by conversations around us. Our steak was cooked perfectly to our requirements. The dressing on our salad was divine. The chips crispy. Nothing left on our dinner plate except for a few chips left on mine. The dessert was Heavenly. Again nothing left on the plate. We were happily impressed with our dinner and look forward to coming back with our other sisters. Thank you so much! Also a HUGE thank you to our waitress for a wonderful service and beautiful smile last night!
