How many cafes does Starworks rank in Tweed Heads?

Starworks ranks 42 cafes in Tweed Heads, NSW, holding 6,610 Google reviews between them. Across the 42 the median rating is 4.6 stars from a median of 68 reviews. Of the 42, 28 are rated 4.5 or better and 20 have passed 100 reviews. The most-reviewed carries 925 reviews, more than the top-ranked cafe holds, which is why rating alone does not set the order.

What star rating should I expect from a good cafe in Tweed Heads?

The median Google rating across the 42 cafes Starworks ranks in Tweed Heads, NSW is 4.6 stars, and 28 of them sit at 4.5 or above. A rating at or near that median is ordinary for cafes in Tweed Heads, NSW rather than a warning sign on its own, and a rating well above it only means much when enough reviews stand behind it.

How many Google reviews does an established cafe in Tweed Heads have?

The median cafe Starworks ranks in Tweed Heads, NSW carries 68 Google reviews, and 20 of the 42 cafes have passed 100. The most-reviewed of them carries 925.

How does Starworks rank cafes in Tweed Heads?

Starworks gives every cafe in Tweed Heads, NSW a reputation score out of 100 from three things: its Google star rating (up to 47 points), how many reviews back that rating (up to 35), and whether customers can reach it by website and phone number (up to 18). Review volume is the one part that can subtract: below 15 reviews it costs points, because a near-empty review record gives a stranger very little to go on. No score falls below 0 and placement cannot be bought. The score measures the strength of a business's public review record rather than the quality of its work, so it is worth reading the reviews as well, and every listing links to them on Google.

Why does a cafe in Tweed Heads with all 5-star reviews score lower than one with a lower rating?

Because review volume counts as well as rating, and below 15 reviews it counts against you. Five perfect reviews are encouraging but thin evidence; three hundred reviews averaging 4.7 tell a stranger far more about what to expect on the day. That is a judgement about how much proof exists, not about the quality of the work, and a newer cafe with a handful of excellent reviews may still be the right choice in Tweed Heads, NSW. The star rating and review count sit next to every score so you can weigh both yourself.

Why does the same cafe not appear several times on this list?

Some businesses run more than one Google listing, often one per suburb they service. Those are the same company, so Starworks groups them and shows the business once, using the listing with the strongest review record. That is why this page opens with 42 distinct cafes in Tweed Heads, NSW rather than a longer list of repeats.

How often is this list of cafes in Tweed Heads updated?

This ranking of cafes in Tweed Heads, NSW rebuilds on a 30-day cycle and prints the date of its last rebuild above the list, which for the current version is October 2026. Ratings and review counts are re-read from Google over time rather than on a fixed schedule, so an individual figure here can be older than the rebuild date.

How can I improve my cafe business ranking in Tweed Heads?

Collect genuine customer reviews consistently, and keep a working website and phone number on your Google listing, because those are the three inputs the score reads. There is no placement to buy on this page. For scale: the median cafe Starworks ranks in Tweed Heads, NSW carries 68 Google reviews at 4.6 stars.
