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.

Based on our brief visit Jill's deserves kudos for its not-too-sweet, not-too-large muffins, but also for the book exchange it hosts in support of animal welfare in Vanuatu. You can buy a secondhand book for vt400 or swap a book for vt200 and selection is...not just airport novels.More

You must visit Jill's cafe, lovely staff and owner, good food, nice cakes and biscuits, great coke floats (spiders) all at reasonable prices. Seating at the front or towards the back of the cafe which has a large opening for lots of air and view...of the water.More

I popped in here to get out of the heat and was warmly greeted with a glass on cold water and invited to sit. I ordered an iced chocolate from the menu that came out boiling hot with a scoop of ice cream melting on...top. Not quite what Iwas expecting or am use to for an iced chocolate. I drank it.More

But not as overpriced as a lot of other venues. It worked out about AU$15 for a hot dog with pineapple and bacon. If you have kids and are looking for somewhere they will eat the food, this is probably the place for you. It...is nicely set out and enjoyed by locals and foreigners alike.More

I went for breakfast - I got their big breakfast as it has home made hash browns. Also has bacon, sausage , egg and fruit. Also love the home made lemonade. Disappointing that they did not have lemonade. Also the hash brown was not the...same as I had previously had. tasted like packet mashed potato. also called in for lunch. Got a Chicken Caesar Salad to share - it was nothing like a Caesar salad and we were searching for chicken, Did find a couple of minute pieces. Hopefully Jill's gets up to speed again. we know it has been difficult with Covid.More
