Booked council ($800+) to come in for an inspection, paid for 3 hours to book the kitchen. Very disappointed.
There was a long list of items to be cleaned and repaired.
Council gave the kitchen 2 stars and asked for things to be fixed.
But having pool of water on the floor of the food storage area, dead insects and oil splashes on the wall, come on, get your act together.

I've been operating my business out of the green hive for the past 6 months. Great place to start a business as you can rent the kitchen by the hour and test your business rather than signing a long lease only to not be successful. They provide all the equipment and also information about licenses and government requirement which was very helpful.

We have been working with the guys at the Green Hive for a few months now. The kitchens are all well equipped and clean.
Management are great I would not look at going anywhere else.

No communication at all. Couldn’t even get an appointment to inspect the kitchen
