I went with a group celebrating a special birthday and what a treat we had. The food was delicious -everyone in our group thoroughly enjoyed their choices. All the meals arrived in a timely manner and our waitress Nellie was a delight. She was so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. She is a credit to your company. I am sure that you will have many returning customers from within our group. Unfortunately as I am from Christchurch I cannot be one of them Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

We have been coming to the Village Green from the day it has opened as it is our local and have always had a great expariance we have celebrated birthdays on many occasions and tonight was no exception as it was our daughters birthday and we decided to choose your restaurant to dine . I made the booking over 2 weeks ago And tonight arrived with a birthday cake as we have in the past , But on going to Seattle our bill that was $140 odd on Food and $50 on Drinks we were told we had to pay $15 for bringing the cake in , We were never informed of this either on the booking or when i handed the cake over to the lady that greeted us . When my husband asked to speak to the manager she said she presumed i knew as this was the policy because i just handed the cake over !! and also said it should have been mentioned upon booking . She was clearly annoyed that we were asking about the charge and we also said we have never been charged anywhere else ever for a cake Corkage i understand but not a cake and not $15 she said it covers what the restaurant will miss out on with dessert When infact i would never normally order dessert or the other people at the table so there is no missing out on anything . Village Green Under the current financial struggle that hospitality is having with many People choosing to not dine out unnecessarily charging customers like this is unresonable at the very least put this on your menu or website to give customers the choice of wanting to take a birthday cake into your establishment instead of blindsiding them , it was embarrassing and we will never dine at your resturant again Your Manager handled it very poorly She may have apologized but it was more to get us going out the door . The right thing would have been was to waiver the fee as we feel totally duped and there was no mention from your booking person your website there was nothing in writing near the counter or menu so How are we suppose to know this. It made what started off a lovley evening ending up a stressful and very annoyed as we could have easily gone somewhere else Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

A very busy venue for lunch with apologetic staff for the wait. Totally understandable. However a really disappointing vegetarian burger experience, today. A burger with tomato relish, lettuce, mayonnaise and two hash browns, all served up with fries. Now I’m a vegetarian, not just limited to spuds and I quite fancy other veggies, such as tomato, beetroot, cucumber, even carrot. Waitress apologised for the lack of vegetables and agreed that there should have been at least some tomato. She said that she would raise my concerns with the chef. When paying at the till, I explained my concerns, and apparently se was the Manager, and she kindly gave me 25% of my $26.00, burger. So kind of her, however her lack of apology was deafening. She too was going to talk with the chef. Unfortunately, I didn’t and won’t ever get the benefit from the Chef’s new training,but I hope someone else does. I won’t be back.

Was here for a gathering and intended to buy morning tea for two of us. However there are no prices on the cabinet food - come on, prices are a basic requirement for cafe customers. Can't be bothered going through the palaver of asking prices, so decided just coffee. No coffee types or prices displayed either? Finally found a drinks menu on the counter with coffee/tea listed on an inside page. But despite having been standing at the counter for some time, and two staff being in sight, no-one came to serve. Ended up walking away without coffee. Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1
Pleasantly surprised with the setting and ambiance of the place. Food good and reasonably priced. I'll be back. Service Dine in Meal type Brunch Price per person $90–100 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5

So disappointed with our blue cod, it's not like the traditional type, 3 small nugget type pieces with some kind of egg batter, not crunchy just blah. Salad was a poor coleslaw type and description was not what we expected, crispy potatoes weren't crispy at all, real bummed about our $100 lunch, won't return....ever Food: 1 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Cheese burger and fries was delicious. The place is a little gem hidden in a sports complex which suprised me a lot. Will definitely be coming back Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5
Stopped in for a quick breakfast. Was lovely service and the food was amazing. The only problem was that the tables were are reserved, but empty. I had to ask permission to sit down. Was nice looking at the soccer teams on the field practicing. Service Dine in Meal type Breakfast Price per person $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5
