Famous for its sunny balcony in the heart of Mission Bay, De Fontein Belgian Beer Café boasts a superb Belgian Beer list and menu of Belgian Cuisine complemented by hearty New Zealand dishes.

This busy and lively restaurant provides a large upstairs dining area which leads on to that famous balcony, as well as a downstairs bar perfect for enjoying a drink and snacks with friends.

Try the famous steaming mussel pots and mussel platters and few can go past the waffles or chocolate mousse on the comprehensive dessert menu.

Hoegaarden!! Best Ambiance, friendly staff!

Used to work here, so I’m a bit biased but it’s gotta say something that I never tired of their famous mussel pots and platters - delish!

Fly yourself to Belgian... not literally Here you enjoy the live Band Music and enjoy the Beer near the Beach. Best chips served with the beer and the Pints are Big.

Great place to recharge over great food and drinks. The beer list is huge. Great prices and friendly staff. They do a really, really good sticky date pudding. Will be back!

Best place to relax with friends

Mission bay and beer do mix well! What better place to enjoy this mix than the Belgian Beer Cafe.

Nothing better than enjoying a beer on the balcony of De Fontein overlooking Mission Bay on a sunny day, there's also live music Sunday afternoons.

Beautiful breakfast with reasonable portions at great prices!
