Went there yesterday and ordered 500g of T bone steak and lamb chops which they didnt have and we had to resort to ordering the giant rib which was nice but took forever to get it since they were waiting for their meat deliveries. Its quite upsetting being shown a full menu but being told the available options are not what you initially preferred
Super and highly recommend the GRILLED CALAMARI meal.Super Devine! Plus chilled and good service
Excellent service from my waitron Moosa attention to detail, always around had pasta chorizo Excellent dish,would have appreciated more chorizo in pasta, but service Excellent
They have a great cocktail selection, either than that, the food is not all that. Had breakfast here and couldnt help but taste vinegar in my egg Benedict, I know why though but I wasnt too pleased with this. Love the fact that its not saturated with alot of young people. It only gets vibey here when there is a performance otherwise youd definitely enjoy your drink unbothered.
Their pasta is amazing and affordable. I like that they cater for groups. Their cocktails are to die for. It was a bit cold, no heaters on site despite being winter. I hated that, I even left early because of the cold.
Loved the prices and the service. Definitely going back when lockdown restrictions ease
Drinks are great, but its quite expensive. Not the best service, but good overall.
Friendly waitress and great food.
Looking at the pictures and discriptions of the meals in the menu got me very excited, but I was completely disappointed with what I received. I asked for a meal with rye bread and ended up getting soggy, half-toasted white bread. The waitress didnt even know their meals, she had to look at the menu when taking down our orders. We had to little cutlery and the waitress ended up bringing me cutlery in her hands still wiping them. I will not recommend this place to anyone and will certainly not be going back there
Met a friend for coffee to help with university work. We asked for the WiFi password which they happily gave to us but were not happy when we ordered only coffee and no food. Wasnt the ideal relaxed atmosphere. When I was ready to pay he shook his head when I presented my card to pay just for coffee. WiFi is very helpful - the restaurant is clean and good for a meeting or to work. I hope the service improves on accommodating all customers.
It was nice and cosy😅,Food is good, not great but good
Very friendly and efficient staff!
It isnt a place to order food. Just for drinks. The food was cold, raw. Inedible to say the least. The drinks are always on point though.
It is a nice place but they didnt have the food I wanted,theyran out of food.
Had the worst experience at the Hatfield branch. the food that we ordered was different to the food that we got. for example , the menu says the one sandwich came on toasted ciabatta but it came on greasy white bread. we all found the menu very misleading. my one friend also didn’t have any cutlery and when she asked , the waitress bought it in her hands whilst still wiping them. i found this experience extremely disappointing. definitely won’t be recommending or coming here again.
It is sad that news cafes are facing extinction. Please stop by for a plate of nachos
I had the WORST EXPERIENCE of my life here on Friday, 19 March. Had the rudest waiter, made me feel so unwelcome since the minute I came into the door. What a disappointment since they promote with having good vibes and sevice. Will Never go back.
Very good atmosphere , good vibe and music. Date night kind of place
Its actually a cool place to have drinks.
Slow service. Bathroom not well serviced (toilet not very clean, and hand wash liquid soap kept in plastic cup for everyone to dip into).
The food was terrible. The waiter got my order wrong and even after that didnt change it. Pity I didnt take a picture.
Great tasting coffee ☕
I really enjoyed stopping here for coffee and go over some files from work, staff rock, keep up being awesome
I used to go to this place when it was still at The Square. Its still one of the places I can go to for a meal and drinks and have more than I expected. The new location still has a lovely chill, a great vibe and the ambience, mncwaaaa out of this world.
Lekker service.... would have put five... but I dont think I enjoyed it enough... so next time definitely I guess
Very nice!
New menu, which was great. Drinks on point as always.
Great service, they need more wifi access outside.
Always live and music is nice with a good crowd
Great food, good music, clean & friendly staff.
The waiter was very friendly and quick, the food extremely delicious. Chilled vibes, loved it.
Surprisingly good nachos to share
Had some time to kill and ran in there for a quick drink with a friend. Service fabulous and waiters very pleasant
The food was good and fresh, the waiter was friendly and efficient. It is a good spot to relax with friends for a good drink and food.
Food so-so. Not value for money
A great place to chill in
Waited almost 45 min for our food , even though the restaurant was almost empty. Also my first 2 options on the menu they didnt have enough ingredients for so ended up having to take something else
Vibe is amazing
Absolutely love this place 😭❤️ best chilled place ever
The best thing on the menu for me was the cocktail (a pink gin) . Had finger foods which were not bad. Casual environment. Service was a bit slow but not bad.
They play club music (amapiano) but not too loud. Not much traffic. Good vibes. Good food. Not too expensive
It was good. The waiters really try to be helpful and attend to you. I dont think they are flexible in tailoring some things to how you want.
Ordered what I thought was going to be a really good steak. Their Signature Melt. Instead of a luscious piece of steak I got cardboard, riddled with sinewy pieces of inedible meat. When I told the manager he only replied with oh, I hope youll call again. Not offered to bring me a new one. Definitely wont go there again.
Excellent customer service and delicious food.
Great specials. Good for group outings. Service is not that great. Staff members tend to have an attitude.
Good lamp chops
Beautiful place we ordered a platter and they gave us well prepared platter that we shared and enjoyed 👌👌👌. I also enjoyed their cocktails. I wont mind going there every week. PLEASE DO YOURSELVES A FAVOUR BY GOING THERE💃💃💃
Very, lovely place. But the service was a little bit slow.
Great people and open.Wings and chips to die for.
I was there for a meeting. The place has outside seating if you prefer it. Lovely environment.
It was a sad day when the old news cafe over the road was pulled down, because it was a key focal point of the Hatfield nightlife, but like a phoenix it has been resurrected, now just over the road. Good food and great atmosphere. Expect the liveliness barometer to hit the high points on Thursday and Friday
Excellent service. Nice food. Only downer was the music volume was too loud, making conversation almost impossible.
Excellent service! I only had a beer while catching up with some work but the enthusiasm of the staff will make me come back. Well done
Great place to vibe with friends👑
Spacious, good vibe day and night. Food its okay, service its okay. Great experience
This is ideal for all sorts of occasions. The interior is beautifully done, the leather and wood look give it a nice classy vibe.Totally enjoyed my food each time I was there , they never disappoint. Try their big beef burger and thank me later.The customer service is amazing, nice and friendly staff.
Rude waiter that really annoyed informed me they had no smoothies, which would be fine if you told me differently! Only went there for two coffee in the morning which were mediocre and had to wait long for this. Would not visit again, especially the way he was upset we only tipped him 7%.. would have given nothing if I knew that in advance!
Chilled. Great music. Can hold a conversation without screaming. Its really a great place for after drinks and dinner
The music....they play nice music, I recommend the place for a young/mini social
The food was amazing. I really like the new spot and it is closer to the gautrain station which is a bonus. The service wasnt great.
Service was lacking. We only had one coffee waiters never ask if I want it with hot or cold milk, a Cappuccino drinks and a spicy latte that was not even spiced, basically hot milk with a little bit of cinnamon in. Send it back 3 times and then cancelled it. Place will not see me again...
With a menu with quite a few finger foods that are finger licking good - no finger bowls. Using the perfumed wet wipes spoil the taste of the food. Food was 5 star, service average.
Nice place to chill with friends or family. The food Is good,good vibe and good service too. I recommend that you go to news cafe if you looking for a nice,fun experience..
Amazing time and awesome vibe
Too loud music and there was no food even though I called first to ask what time they were closing. They still didnt mention that their kitchen is closed.
Delicious food and friendly service at this place. Nice place to hang out with friends.
My son and I travelled on the Gautrain from Rhodesfield to Hatfield. We stopped at the News Cafe for lunch before we made the return trip. It was really not nice. The service was slow, the order inaccurate and the food was less than good. It was mid afternoon and there was no News Cafe vibe that I have experienced at other News Cafes.
Chilled good service
Good service. Food was also good. Music was great, very good sound system. Good for groups and going out for drinks with friends.
Well designed restaurant. Friendly staff. Its has a nice bar. Decent outdoor seating
Beautiful team thats dedicated to a beautiful ambiance. Really lively and safe place to chill and have brainstorming meetings.
Love the food and bathrooms
Nice metro vibe in the heart of Hatfield PTA , have only been there for the breakfast run ... will be back to catch the evening vibe FOR SURE!!!
They had no food at 7pm on the day, most drinks were not available either, music was too loud for a Monday evening
My waiter was friendly and made sure to inform me of all the specials they have. The service was quick and efficient. Thoroughly enjoyed myself
Hatfield cafe is the oldest restaurant in Hatfield still serving good food and drinks. It was originally located where rapsudy restaurant is now and moved across at the right end of the parking lot with ample parking and sitting area. It looks much better now with i side and outside sitting spaces.
Its an amazing spot with good food, drinks and great hospitality.
Best Cocktails in Town
The service was very great and the waitor *Musa* was just so awesome
A hearty helping for breakfast and eggs perfectly done. Good value for money. Friendly service too.
Coffee is great and the service is excellent and fast. Clients are treated with much respect.
