Review Honeysuckle Hotel - Newcastle

I visited on a Friday afternoon at around 4:30pm with two others. It wasn't too busy and we got a nice table by the water with a great view. We ordered some drinks, coffee, chips ($9) and oven-baked Turkish bread ($9). The drinks were nice and good value, the vodka raspberry was especially good. The chips weren't the best but the delicious Turkish bread made up for it. I liked that we could order our drinks from our phones, but it would've been good if we could order food as well. The service was friendly but not very fast. Overall, I highly recommend for the good vibes and views.

Friendly staff, with deck seating and indoor seating. The ribs and wings were delicious! The lobster was nice, the rump was alright. You can see the nice ships on port with the deck view. The inside is nice and spacious

Stunning view. Food was tasty, one came out slightly cold and one was quite delayed compared to the others. Staff were indifferent but overall did well keeping up with the orders as it's a busy night. I would attend again for the view alone to be honest.

Overall - 4/5 The vibe is absolutely amazing. Massive place looking over the water, nice smoking zone, live music, digital order from the table. LOVED IT!! Will definitely visit again for the view and the vibe! 1. Spice Dusted Squid w/ paprika aioli & chilli ($18) - 5/5, almost the best squid i have ever had. We took 2, MUST TRYY!!! 2. Garlic Prawn & Chorizo Pizza / 26.0 w/ Sugo al Pomodoro, garlic prawns, Spanish onion, cherry tomatoes & capers - 2.5/5. Pizza was just okay, very cheesy but not of great taste. Medium sized pizza (8 pieces) with 1 to 2 prawns per piece. Not great for the price 3. Bucket of Prawn (Around $20) - 3/5. Taking shells of is quite a challenge and taste was okay 4. Jug of Pimms - 5/5 ($30) Taste is really good but i think it’s a little expensive but very tasty and relaxing, we took 2.

Really enjoyed this place with a standout 1.5 kilo tomahawk steak which might seem expensive at $130 but it easily fed four of us with some left to take home plus an enormous bone for the dog. The rest seemed to be fairly standard pub Snittys etc. And a variety of bars, tab, outdoor areas etc which means if I am ever in Newcastle again I would be happy to go back.

A Newcastle favourite go to. Delicious food with a decent menu. Always a vibrant atmosphere. Food is on the pricier side, not unexpected for the spectacular views and establishment. The Lychee Martini is hectic fresh and absolutely delicious. An iconic choice.

Such a nice place to enjoy your time with friends or family. Excellent location, next to water with beautiful view, even better when sunset. Nice music add up the vibes. Food are great, pair with variety options of drink. Very humble staffs. What an experience!

Large and spacious venue with ample seating. Staff are hospitable and attentive. Love how you can order at your table through me&u app and food and drinks come straight to your table. Lamb Ragu spaghetti was cooked well and sweet potato fries are massive. Love the atmosphere here will definitely back next time I’m in Newcastle.

Organising my boyfriends surprise 25th at honeysuckle was honestly a breeze when dealing with a functions manager like Megan! The night ran so smoothly, we couldn’t have asked for anything better. From the food platters to Megan organising the cake stand and decorating the room for us so we didn’t have to do it ourselves. A big shout out to Mimi on the bar who made organising the bar tab super cruisey, to setting up a mic quickly for us to make speeches! You guys are both such a asset to honeysuckle hotel! I Would definitely recommend honeysuckle for any function!��

I had my farewell at honey suckle hotel last weekend in the function area on the verandah myself and my guest had the best time!!!! Having my event here was easy and enjoyable from the organising to tje partying (and im a stressy perfectionest hehe). I highly recommend having your function here. Honeysuckle hotel was found to be the best value for money (i did a lot of looking around), stunning venue, great music, good food, they let me decorate and the staff are out standing not only were they a breeze to communicate with leading up the event on the night they looked after me! i meet the manger and event staff who went above and beyond to make it a great night despite the rain causing a bit havoc. A shout out to Megan, Mimi and the Honeysuckle hotel for making my farewell grand! This post is a heart felt thankyou to u all. Cheers. I will definitely be having any future events here when im back from my travels!!

The share platter was amazing, the staff were lovely with great attitudes. Food was served quickly, cooked to absolute perfection. I honestly had such a lovely time, I wanted to be sure the staff knew it was appreciated. Thankyou :)

We booked the 'Honeysuckle Room' on the lower level for my brothers 21st. The venue was comfy and a perfect atmosphere for the event! The staff who dealt with the booking were super accomodating and made the whole process really easy. I thought the room hire was also incredibly affordable. We had canapés on the night, the staff were friendly, on time and the food was great as well. Overall we were very pleased with the whole experience and I would certainly hold another event here in future.

This place gets a bad wrap sometimes but it's always great to me the Sunday afternoon bands are a great addition with really friendly staff 5 stars from me

We recently had our work mid year celebration at this exceptional establishment. Many thanks to the function staff for all their assistance and flexibility! Excellent food and even better service made our function especially relaxing and enjoyable. Thanks again!

Went there on thursday night... had been recommended to me as a 'great place to eat'... i had the surf and turf... was pricey ($35+) and i was unimpressed when i got and ate my meal � steak was thin, both steak and prawns were overcooked, chips were soggy and salad was heaps of rocket lettuce and red onion, 1 slice of cucumber and 1 cherry tomato... wont be going back next time...

What a perfect location for any event! We held a family dinner in the Habour View room and it was perfect. Megan was wonderful and accommodating throughout the whole booking process and was so attentive on the night. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to hold a function on the harbour.

You can only live on a view for so long. Since my last visit the choice of beer on tap has gone down hill (please suport local brewers). Coopers Pale is now the only non Supermarket beer available. The 2 red wines I tasted, smelt and tasted like they were left in the Sun for a month. The bar staff told me that a Muskat taste and nose on a Tempranillo was normal. Really not good enough for such a potential showcase venue.

I highly recommend visiting the Honeysuckle Hotel. Caitlin ensured that we had an excellent experience. I will be visiting again.

Good place for a ripper saturday night, Eliza and the rest of the staff give great service. 10/10

Nice place but very expensive to have a drink there. Won’t be in a rush to go back unfortunately.
