Belgium Beer Cafe Torenhof (A20)

Belgium Beer Cafe Torenhof. 271 Stanmore Road, Richmond, Christchurch.

Food. Food arrived pretty close to each other for a table of 6. Sampled the Chicken, Steak, Mussels, Mixed Seafood Dish, and Dessert. Overall the food was good but like previous occassions, the Belgium tap beers, fries with mayo, mussels and desserts are normally the highlight. They do also frequently run promotions (previously 1kg pot for 1kg pot of mussels) so can be good value also.

Environment & Service. A very popular place on a Friday night for people to have a couple of drinks at the end of the work week so it is recommended a booking is made to secure a table. Situated in an old stone building, the inside is comfortably warm with the crowd and overhead heaters. Highly recommended as a place to have a drink or meal with a couple of friends in this comfortable venue. Service was average but waiter was very helpful whenever flagged down.
