Thanks so much for this lovely review!💛 We’re so glad your team gathering went smoothly and that you enjoyed your time here. It was such a pleasure helping you get set up (and hunt down those lunch spots 😋)

"The Village Hive was absolute perfection for my small team gathering (6 people) in July 2025! The conference room with large monitor (+ HDMI) and whiteboard was all that we needed for a productive meeting.

Charlotte made booking a breeze and was a dream to work with. She helped me find local restaurants to order lunch and was very accommodating to all of our needs on site.

I found The Village Hive inadvertently after refusing to pay the exorbitant conference room rental rates at the local Markham hotels. The location was easy for locals to get to, easy access from Rte. 407 - and what a cute, historic neighborhood!

Nothing but good things to say about The Village Hive! I only hope that I don't regret posting this review because this best-kept-secret may no longer be one! :)"

Did you know the wifi reaches all the way to our gazebo at Duncan Mill? 🐝

It’s the perfect spot to set up your laptop, enjoy lunch outdoors, or take a quiet coffee break in the sunshine ☀️

Sometimes stepping outside for a change of scenery is all it takes to reset the day. Give it a try next time you’re here!✨
