The Hemporium Wellness Centre

The Hemporium Wellness Centre in Stockton, Newcastle brings together a wholefoods cafe, plant-based products and wellness consultations with a strong focus on hemp and its potential uses. The venue’s approach is grounded in nature, wellbeing and practical support, with consultants available for people looking to begin a general wellness routine or explore support for concerns including pain, anxiety, insomnia and other debilitating conditions. Consultations also provide guidance on using the centre’s plant-based products.

The on-site cafe is designed as a relaxed place to eat, meet and connect. Its offering includes hemp seed smoothies, specialty coffee and tonics, broths, soup, dahl, raw treats and other plant-based food, with hemp-infused meals available on the full cafe menu. The cafe is proudly seed-oil-free. Monday and Tuesday offer a shorter grab-and-go style service with coffee, smoothies, raw treats and prepared meals, while Wednesday to Saturday brings the full cafe menu. Uber Eats ordering, table bookings and catering requests are also available through the venue.

Beyond the cafe, The Hemporium stocks superfoods, supplements, organic beauty products and other plant-based goods through its store and online shop. The venue also offers space for wellness practitioners, with two clinic rooms in its Tiny Healing House, plus indoor and backyard areas for educational workshops. The backyard can be hired for small private gatherings outside wellness clinic hours, giving the centre a broader community role than a cafe or retail shop alone.

The business was founded from a commitment to making hemp more accessible and supporting local wellbeing. Its founder, Karen, is described as a long-standing figure in the Australian hemp industry and as having advocated for access to medical cannabis while supporting the community through the Ubuntu Wellness Clinic. The Hemporium may suit solo visitors seeking a nourishing cafe stop, people interested in plant-based products or consultations, and small groups attending a workshop or gathering. Its focus is clearly on wellness, connection and hemp education rather than a conventional cafe experience.
