You are greeted with delicious bakery smells when you walk in and there are endless choice at okay prices. Absolutely love their crispy and flaky croissants and they do great coffee too!

Nicely hidden bakery with friendly service and obviously good food! Coffee was delicious and so were the sweets we ordered. They also sell bread and granola so I will be back for those !
The Ginger Creme brûlée tart is a must! I’ve had it a few times and it never disappoints. The carrot cake was mouth watering, the ‘icing’ is in the middle of the cake rather than the top, making it nice and moist and it’s not too sweet. It was the first time I tried the apple crumble tart and without a doubt I will be back for more!
Love love love this bakery 😍

Ginger Creme Brûlée Tart : 😍 Amazing
Apple Crumble Tart : 😍 Amazing
Carrot Cake : 😁 Great
Cherry Choc Brownie Cookie : 😁 Great
Coffee : 😁 Great

The smell of pies from the bakery could literally be smelt from down the street. Walking inside I could literally feel the warmth hug me. Freshly baked bread loaves and desserts were at the ready. Tarts are to literally die for. Specifically the Apple Crumble & the Ginger Creme Brûlée. Coffee was good to have on a windy day. Service was great.

Tried their fennel and pork sausage roll which I thoroughly enjoyed.Have been meaning to try Bourke street bakery out for quite some time now, and very happy I actually got around to it. Very cute atmosphere with friendly service too :) Would return to try one of the other many things they have to offer.

I had heard so many good things about this place online so i had to pay a visit!!!! We walked into a really nice and peaceful dusty brown atmosphere and chose the beef brisket red wine & mushroom pie, lamb, almond & harissa pie, toast with jam & whipped cream and a Belgium iced chocolate to top it off!! We were definitely not disappointed cause everything was so fresh, service was super fast & the food was very high quality for something so cheap. Definitely recommend the beef pie with red wine as it was super tasty and hearty 👌🏼👌🏼

This is my go to for a quick lunch with my toddler. I love their beef and brisket pie, lamb & harissa sausage rolls, bacon & gruyère quiche, pear & blueberry muffin and they also have a really great pear and blueberry tea cake that's perfect for a little "thank you for having me over for lunch" gift. Good coffee too! Needless to say this is a kid friendly cafe, they have a few toys to play with, quick service and all items on menu are kid friendly.

I went here on a Sunday Arvo whilst I was in the area and as soon as I turned the block I could smell the fresh aroma of BREAD! The cafe has outdoor and indoor seating and the outdoor seating is very pet friendly. This place also offers vegetarian options and the workers were very attentive, knowledgable and friendly! Would come love to come back here with my fur baby for brunch ☺️

Delicious pork and fennel sausage roll and creme brulee ginger tart! Definitely will visit the Marrickville bakery more often as there are less customers, more food availability, seats and great service.

Tip: I was lucky enough to get a parking spot out the front on a weekday around 2pm. Otherwise parking can be found on Victoria Road.

The ginger brûlée tart is my all-time favourite menu item from Bourke Street Bakery. Crunchy toffee atop a luscious ginger infused custard in a buttery pastry tart. Yum! If you haven't yet had the pleasure of this exquisite dessert, you must!

Every so often, I'll try something different if there is someone to share it with. The rhubarb tart is pretty good too.

The Marrickville store is one of their larger stores so finding a spot to enjoy a coffee and tart isn't a problem.

I can't believe I feel this way... And I don't know how to break it to you...But the ginger crème brulee tart is like food porn. That I want to do over and over again. That is all. ;)

Coffee was a bit too cool as we had small chat and the cup turned icy cold. Ginger cake, holy damn niga that stuff was heavenly good as it dressed my mouth with sweet cheesy filling, wiping up the grossness of ginger as ingredient ( I abhor ginger) and left me shocked after first bite.

Definately recommend this place to any cake or sweeteries loverss

I always love getting goodies from here and each time I pass I can't help myself but pick up a few goodies. All the bread is great & fresh but my favourite is the chewy, foccacia like olive oil loaf. My 2 favourite cakes are the carrot & walnut and the pear & rasberry butter cake. The latter so full of fruit its almost like a tart. Both are as delicious as always but I do think the portion size has reduced. Or maybe I am just getting more greedy...

Heard good things about the pastry at bourke street bakery and was not disappointed at my 2 trips here. The beef, beer and bacon pie with cheesy mash had great flavour to it and the lamb sausage roll was delicious with a great crunch to its outer pastry. The sweet pastries are tasty and they give off a slightly-burnt texture type of feel which I enjoy

I'm a very big Bourke St bakery fan and have been for years. You can't go wrong with this place. I'm not a coffee drinker but the hot chocolates here are amazing, such a pity they don't actually make a hot chai latte (they have a cold one available in bottles). I've had everything here from the apple and rhubarb muffins to the eggplant sandwiches to their amazing pies and I have no complaints. The staff are super friendly here and the barista makes your drink before you have even finished paying. Great place for early in the morning to grab something and go, gets a bit busy around lunch time and you may not find a seat or parking.

I have been to the one in Alexandria, North Sydney and marrickville and they ALL reliever. Such amazing tasting tarts. I haven't seen the strawberry one in a while so I suspect that the berries aren't in season so
I hope they come back soon. They also have sandwhiches which are pretty delicious too - try the one with pancetta in it so yummy.

Mr C and I have been wanting to visit the famous Bourke Street Bakery for a long time, but I’ve always put it off as I heard it was located pretty far from Central. After a very long time we FINALLY we made it! In fact it was so good we even took the time to visit the Marrickville store a few days later store for some more delicious pastries The not-so-long-queue I expected a pretty long line but surprisingly it wasn’t ! We were either lucky or my definition of ‘long queue’ must be different from all the popular places we’ve been to… Eggplant, Spinach, Chick Pea & Feta Sausage Roll I so loved the pastry of the sausage roll. I love the flavour of the small burnt on the pastry, it was crispy and melts in your mouth! The goodness inside was so delicious, I’ve never had a sausage roll with eggplant and feta before. A great combination along with the spinach and chick peas !!! I didn’t use much tomato sauce (which I normally do), because there was enough flavour to it already. Beef Brisket,

The reason Bourke Street Bakery Marrickville has been on my to-visit list forever is that I heard rumours there’s actually room to sit down. And guess what? The rumours are true. The interior, although hardly spacious, does have sufficient seating and there’s also a clump of tables outside. The large windows give lots of light, which bounces off the polished concrete floors, and glints off chrome industrial stools. There’s a big rack of bread at one end of the shop, a mesmerising fridge of cakes and pastries in the middle and a large communal table at the end. I order two macchiatos and a chocolate croissant and we grab a seat.

The pork mince is luscious, but not too fatty, and the fennel adds just the slightest aniseed flavour to the mix. I'm in love. The pastry is thick and flaky, as I take my first bite little pieces of pastry rain down into my lap. It's not pretty, but it sure is tasty!

The bakery is located in a part of Marrickville not best known for its views. An outside table will secure this lovely streetscape. If the view isn't enough, having to raise your voice every 10 minutes or so to compensate for the planes overhead may just

Core products but they do them so well. Been here many times - parking in Mitchell Street can be a bit limited with lots of people at the bakery. Lots of shops closed on weekends to park outside of or else stick on Victoria Road and walk there. Had some of their highlights - lemon curt tart, beef brisked, red wine and mushroom pie, pork and fennel sausage roll - some of these have now become semi-Sydney institutions.

Good stuff.

Awesome sausage rolls but can do better pastries. After rave reviews I went to the much anticipated Bourke St Bakery in Marrickville. The Pork and Fennel Sausage roll was to die for, I can't wait to taste the other flavours.
I must say the raisin scroll was average, bordering on a bit stale and hard to tear apart. I've had much much better at La Banette in Glebe.
All in all a great experience - perhaps I'll try the pastries again

Their bread is best. I love everything from this place. The marrickville shop is my favourite because you can sit at a table and have a quiet coffee. I have their cook book and still come here (even though I can make it all myself). Their pies and saussage rolls are scrumptious, their bread is superb, their sweets are succulent and the coffee is to die for (if you like strong coffee).

What a Little Gem!. Every now & then Katrina has special (email list invitation only) dinners where she just presents you with food (whatever she feels like cooking) for a fixed price per head + you can BYO. We were fortunate enough to be invited along with some friends who were on her mailing list & were very pleasantly knocked out. We had:

Appetizers:
- Plate of Polenta chips (thick cut like real chips & lightly deep-fried) with sour cream (2 plates for our table of 8).
- Plate of their homemade sourdough bread slices accompanied by white anchovies & a selection of olives (again 2 plates for our table).

Entrees:
- Ricotta & mushroom Gnocchi with roast cauliflower & tarragon.
- Jerusalem artichoke soup.

Main - Oxtail braised in white wine & grapes with chestnut puree.

Dessert - Fig gallette with Manuka honey ice-cream.

The food was excellent (the Gnocchi was the best we've had in living memory!); the portions were quite generous; service was friendly, efficient - probably some of the best service we've had including in much more expensive upmarket restaurants. Cost was $55/head + tip; coffees etc are extra. A tip for those with bad backs - there are no chairs - u will sit on small stools all night.

A hungry love. A hidden secluded gem! you can smell the baking as you approach the shop. nice little set up inside for those who want to eat there (and seating outside as well). Irresistable pork and fennel sausage roll. lots of bread to choose from, esp love the single servings of sourdough and baby paninis!! coffee also good. but desserts can be a little lacking. despite the demand, service staff are highly efficient.

If you have read any of my other reviews, you will know that I am a fan of good pies and good coffee! Whilst both are available at Bourke St Bakery (Marrickville), the main reason I come here is for the Lamb & Harissa Sausage rolls (pictured). The almond gives them a delicious crunch whilst the sweet currents backup the sweet sticky pastry on the base 5* everyday!!! I have been to othe BSB locations and to be honest whilst the standard is generally pretty high, this is by far my preferred location.

Bourke Street bakery has the most amazing food and artisan breads that are delicious, I used to love their pies and breads but since being confirmed as coeliac I can't have anything from their menu except the most important thing in my gluten free diet... COFFEE!!! Their coffee is next level goodness and the staff are super friendly and helpful. I've been to many Bourke Street bakeries across Sydney and their coffee is always amazeballs, every shop I've been too has been amazing coffee and service and no matter what time or day it is, still amazing coffee and service. Do yourself a favour and go to Bourke Street bakery and get some coffee and you'll never see coffee the same again. Thank you... Cheers...

Great bakery with a fantastic selection of sweet pastries and savoury pies and rolls. The bread options are all well done and worth a try. I highly recommend the chicken, potato and pea pie!

Love it! Food and service was great Only reason for not giving 5 stars is because most of the breakfast items were sold out and it was hard to pick in the end. However the croissant with jam and ricotta was surprisingly great! The tarts are always amazing my favourite is the ginger one, never disappointing.

A nice branch of the infamous Bourke Street Bakery. Situated on a quiet street off Victoria Road, most people take out bread or pastries but you can also sit down and enjoy any of their fine pastries or cakes with a cup of tea / coffee. Personally, I love their fig sourdough and all their sausage rolls. If you're in the area, well worth the visit.

Bourke street bakery never disappoints, with their excellent bread, coffees and delicious sausage rolls. A huge bonus is that it’s on quiet street and you’ll almost always find a spot to sit outside, highly recommended
