Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Two of us could not fault this lovely restaurant, the young woman that served was perfect and the Mediterranean food, simple, tasty, fresh and plenty of it. The menu has way more interesting dishes than the place down the road we made a choice between. We absolutely will be back and will probably make it a regular.

we visited for lunch on a thursday and it was quite busy but we were seated and served quickly. our order being taken got delayed due to it being busy but the manager/owner apologised and asked for our meals to be cooked as a priority and they came out very fast! amazing service and the food was delicious. thank you so much to the owner and we will definitely be back!

Wonderful staff, very friendly and helpful, amazing brekkie and excellent coffee. The food is really well cooked. I have tried many cafes in Beaumont Street and this one is head and shoulders above in the quality of their staff, food and coffee … highly recommend

Called in today for the 1st time. Placed an order for 2 coffees & banana bread asking for the coffee to be "extra hot please" I admit it was busy but the coffee came & at best it was luke warm. We had finished our coffees & had to ask if the banana bread was still to come. I paid the bill and waited out on the footpath to take the banana bread away in a paper bag.

Lovely cafe but we went for pancakes for my son’s birthday and unfortunately he couldn’t even eat them, nor could his friends. They were unbelievably dry and eggy. Not even extra maple syrup helped. Very upsetting!

Can only describe that breakfast as special. Best brunch meal I’ve ever had hands down. The big boss recommended the fritters and they were unbelievable. Coffee was unreal and happy the nicest server with an amazing smile who managed to snag a table for me outside! Couldn’t have been happier will definitely be back if I’m in newcastle again

We arrived at lunch time. It was a lengthy experience in signing in for COVID-19 and I do not have an IPhone. We had only one hour car park so time was at an essence. There had been COVID-19 cases across the road and a few doors down. So that was on our mind and the kids were a little unsettled by this. The food was good and waitress was friendly. Paying was a little issue only one inside to pay but it probably the COVID-19 thing. At this stage not wanting to go back but to be fair the rules are out of there hands.

Thoroughly enjoyed the food we had at The Village. Certainly the best Corn Fritters I have ever experienced! Super light and fluffy with a lovely spicy mayo…. So good! I also recommend the Mango and Coconut Frappe.

After two weeks in Melbourne, it was so good to return to The Village in Hamilton. Despite Melbourne being considered the best coffee destination in Melborne, nothing matches the coffee of The Village. It has body and is very smooth.

Owner and staff overbearing and rude. Atmosphere cold and minimalist. Serve slow and brusque. Food bland and limited. Management appears inexperienced.

A lovely cafe with a Greek twist. The food was lovely and the service impeccable. Seems to be a family run cafe and it shows in the atmosphere and service.

Took my Mum here for breakfast when we visited Newcastle in November. Great menu selection and very friendly/efficient staff. Coffees were great, so that was a good start! All of our breakfast selections were generous sized serves and full of flavour. Would happily visit again on our next trip to see family.
