One of the best cafes I’ve been to,
Setting and facilities clean and tidy. With plenty of seating,
Staff very friendly,
Breakfast portions were so big, none of our group was able to finish the meals.
And the coffees were real good.
Cost X4 people =$150+
Highly recommended
You won’t be disappointed

A good friend recommended Kirk Café to us while we were visiting Hamilton, and we’re so glad we went!
There’s plenty of parking right outside, and the café itself has lots of seating options, both indoor and outdoor, perfect for groups or families. The portion sizes are generous and great value for the price, and the coffee was excellent.
We ordered the chicken burger, big breakfast, and cheese & bacon toastie, everything was delicious! The big breakfast was indeed big, with nice, thick, and crispy bacon. The chicken burger smelled amazing and tasted just as good.
Overall, we really liked the café, great food, good coffee, and a relaxed atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back the next time we’re in Hamilton!
Bonus as they are on first table!

Flash looking food. Mixed taste.
The Pulled pork Benedict was really tasty. French toast is probably the most complicated plate I have seen in a while, however flavours were a bit lacking.
Smoothie was too sweet and really just a thickshake.
Prices were up there for a cafe in suburbia.
It is on the same site as a church so nothing that spectactular.

I had the eggs Benedict with what the menu described as “lightly house-smoked dill salmon,” but it turned out to be a large chunk of cooked salmon fillet rather than smoked lox-style slices, which felt a bit odd for an eggs Benedict. The salmon was overcooked, dry, and lacked flavour, and the hollandaise sauce was also quite bland.
My friend had the mushroom eggs Benedict, which was similarly lacking in flavour. We chose this place because of the great reviews but were disappointed with the food overall. The chai latte was very sweet even though we ordered it spicy, and the coffee wasn’t great either.
Perhaps it was just an off day, as the atmosphere and service were okay. Overall, not worth the price.

Visited The Kirk Café in Hamilton and really enjoyed everything we tried — especially the sweet muffin, the pork & chorizo roll, and the samosa roll. You can tell the food is made fresh and with care. It is a little on the pricier side, but the quality definitely shines through. Cozy spot and tasty eats — worth a visit!
