Had a great afternoon at De Post, enjoyed fantstic beer, good hearty food (new menu a nice surprise), service was great lovely wait staff, and they are very knowledgeable about beers. (Manny - July, 2007)

"With Belgium famed for its rich, dark chocolate, the Belgian chocolate mousse might also be worth a go. De Post does breakfasts, and you can enjoy their waffles savoury style with eggs."

N/A, The Auckland Guide Magazine - March 2007

"Well, from the moment you walk in the door you get an instant liking for the place. It has a warm and inviting atmosphere; an abundance of heaters; plenty of tables with candles flickering in red holders; and rich red velvet curtains that create a feeling of cosiness. Friendly staff, dressed in smart black uniforms, give De Post Belgian Beer Café a touch of class that some other bars could do well to follow. Their relaxed, efficient service is outstanding and the table service is, of course, always appreciated."

Em Jackson, View New Zealand - January 2007

“A two-storey Belgian pub with good food. There’s another branch in the Occidental Belgian Beer Cafe in Vulcan Lane.”

Julie Biuso, Lonely Planet New Zealand - September 2005
