Why it's worth checking out

The Belgian Beer Cafe sits on Riverside Quay at Southbank, on the south bank of the Yarra River near Melbourne's CBD. A popular Belgian-style beer cafe, it's a genuine riverfront fixture — combining an excellent range of Belgian and craft beers with hearty European-style pub food and a warm, characterful atmosphere, all in a lovely location overlooking the river.

The appeal is that combination of a fantastic Belgian-and-craft-beer offering, hearty, satisfying food and a characterful setting in a great Southbank riverfront location, ideal for a relaxed meal, a quality beer, a catch-up or a fun night out by the water. For beer lovers and anyone after a quality European-style pub experience with a river view, it's a real draw, and the Belgian Beer Cafe has clearly won over a big, loyal following.

With a 4.3 rating from more than 1,800 reviews, it's clearly a popular, well-loved spot. The beer range, menus, opening hours and any events vary, so it's worth checking current details before you go — though for a quality Belgian beer, a hearty feed and a characterful riverfront atmosphere, it's often just a matter of dropping in at the Belgian Beer Cafe at Southbank.
