News Café — Restaurant in Marbella

Writing this review following spending several nights in here this week alone with great company and friends and putting plenty of money behind the bar and on their VIP area! Tonight left within moments of entering the place (and will never return happily) as completely ruined my night and holiday when entering a VIP area to meet friends (completely sober) to be blocked by a doorman with his arms outstretched, for me to then try explain I have had to give the party details at the door and point over to the group of people I was with, all said in a completely ‘sober’ and ‘polite’ manner to then have a doorman literally place two hands on my chest and push me with some severe force into a group of people behind me, shock and anger consumed me immediately and I am Absolutely disgusted that door ‘MEN’ think this is acceptable and I will pursue this in writing with management, I immediately left after of course telling.this particular member of staff to never put his hands on me again, I understand their role in order to manage and protect the public however it is not within job descriptions to be physical and abusive to paying customers whom have not caused them or any other person any harm or bother, shame really as lovely venue, nice bar staff over ruled by aggressive and awful doormen, looking at previous reviews appears to be a theme here, would absolutely not give them a penny of...

Had a few drinks in the News Cafe yesterday, the waiter on the outside terrace was very surly and extremely poor customer service.

I would strongly suggest to avoid the “News Cafe”” until the News Cafe replace the waiter or help him to undertake further training. Till then Avoid...

A lovely place to sit for a drink and I know you expect to pay over the odds here given that it is a wealthy area but we where well and truly ripped off we where charged 50 euros for 2x 25cl small bottles of cava as I said you expect it to be expensive there but 50 euros for what amounts to 2/3 of a bottle of cava you can buy the 25 cl bottles of Cordoniu Benjamin in the supermarket for around 4 euros per bottle. The mark up on this is excessive. Maybe I should have questioned it at the time but I was a bit shocked and thought that everywhere would be the same as this was the first place we tried, but we found other places that although are still expensive where still reasonable enough given the area....
