Review Black Circle Cafe - Newcastle

Great coffee. Very simple menu but everything I've had here has been good. Enjoyed a coffee and bagel and enjoyed doing a little bit of work whilst relaxing in the outdoor setting.

Great coffee and food spot. Eat in or out, and dog friendly tables available. Food is fresh and tasty, staff are friendly and super helpful.

When you spend $27.83 because you pay a 15% public holiday surcharge which is because you have to pay extra for service…but then wait 24 minutes for 4 takeaway coffees of which 1 of The orders were wrong (served hot instead of iced…) then what do they say “well that’s not what was ordered”…and I say “…umm… yes it was what was ordered….it was 4 iced drinks. She must’ve just put it in wrong”…to which they said “oh well that what’s on HERE (the order slip). I go “oh well…umm….” And she says “well if you WANT…..I could remake it for you, but-“ (then looks around as if to say ‘we’re just soooo busy, I don’t know how long it’ll take’. I say- I just don’t have time though, to wait. They just look blankly. As I walk off I said to my mother-in-law…”I don’t think they care much.” And the male Barrista gave me a smug smile. Yeah, I’m not sure about this place. Nothing professional about it.

Dropped by for a quick lunch before heading back to Sydney in the train. The lunch special was pumpkins soup and it was the best I’ve ever had!!! The sourdough on the side was toasted perfectly and had a herbed type butter smeared lightly which gave it that extra taste. I’d highly recommend, the staff were friendly and helpful and the cafe was comfortable and easy to get in and out of and the seating spread out so that you weren’t listening to the persons conversation at the table next to you :)

Nice staff, didn’t rate the 20 minute wait for a $6 takeaway coffee tho, esp when it’s not busy.

for super strong teeth curdling espresso, this is the place to go! great coffee, mean desserts, good service, nice fit out!

Quirky, cute, rustic. Great coffee & sweet treats. Almond or soy available. Meat & vegetarian options. Toilet avail. Courtyard playground & outdoor tables. Great vibe.

Reliable service,great coffee and food,great people,awesome-unique atmosphere and serve the community in a charitable way,highly recommend!!
