Located
at 277 Alexander Street, The Old Toad is nothing
short of your traditional British local. From the staff
to the food and ales, everything is purely authentic.
Even the bar itself was imported from Great Britain. Truly
“a pub from over there, over here”.
Since its establishment in 1990, The Old Toad has built
a reputation for providing friendly, excellent service.
We offer a wide range of beer - from real ales, imports,
and local favourites, to our very own custom brews. In
addition, we serve traditional British meals as well as
contemporary pub grub (including vegetarian meals). This
is a relaxed atmosphere, there are no televisions or blaring
jukeboxes here. So please, come in and see what all the
fuss is about, mate. We promise, you’ll be glad you
did.

Bière
de Miel on tap at The Toad!
Brasserie
Dupont brews this exquisite saison
blended with honey.
Already in 1880, this honey-beer was a speciality
of their farm-brewery Rimaux-Deridder, very
well known and awarded with many prices
on various agricultural exhibitions.
When the family Dupont took over the brewery,
this beer disappeared from the marked, but
in 1997, more than 75 years later, the Bière
de Miel was “re-created”
in an organic version.
Absolutely superb, everything the aroma
offers and more. Peppery and hoppy. A little
yeasty funk, and a verdant, luxurious essence
of honey, though this honey contributes
only trace amounts of sweetness. YUMMY!
