I kinda like what they've got going on here, the cool hipster bar/ cafe vibe
Location is nice but a little cramped in my opinion but I fuss you can only work with the space you have
Food is good with fair serving sizes against price to boot
I was looking for a burger joint while I was in the Marrickville area. Checked the reviews & it seemed like Beejay's was a good option for lunch. I ordered the cheeseburger which has been pictured in most of the posts. The burger was huge considering that it was just one patty. I had to squish it down a bit before I could take a bite. It was tasty & juicy enough and did I mention...huge 🍔🍔🍔 It's good for a try given the number of burger places in the Inner West & CBD!
Roaming the streets of Marrickville on Boxing Day, it looked like the hipsters had all upped sticks and headed off on holiday. So it was a relief to find Beejay's open and ready for service. Our truffled scrambled eggs and bacon and egg on toast with avocado were both very good. Standard dishes but well made from quality ingredients. A special shout out for the excellent bread and the friendly attentive staff.
Cute little cafe. One of the top rated in Marrickville.. Headed there after breakfast to try the coffee. Place was quite rustic meets industrial and a nice little courtyard out the back away from the busy street. Coffee was nice and staff friendly 😊
Good food, nice service. The tables out the front need levelling out. Dog bowl for puppy. Could do with a more child friendly menu. OK value for money.
Nestled in the midst of the ever bustling Marrickville, Beejay's Cafe and Wine Bar is a trendy and welcoming little establishment that's hitting the mark on quality food in a cool, casual environment. Boasting a delicious menu including all day breakfast (I know, I love it too), killer coffee, groovy decor and a sun soaked courtyard, it's no wonder why locals love this place.
Smashed Avo & Feta with poached eggs on sourdough, absolutely amazing. Reasonable prices, fast service and relaxed atmosphere. Would definitely go back!
...I only wanted salad. It was arrived with avocado, spinach and a delicious grain mustard dressing, delicious!

At nineteen years old, local lad BJ (Benjamin Terkalas) is one of the youngest cafe owners in Marrickville, converting a former Thai restaurant into an eclectic space that marries old LP records with hessian coffee sacks and revamped chairs plastered with strips of old newspaper. It's worth looking up toward the ceiling to notice the quirkier details, like the row of old and new cameras lining one wall, and a trail of vintage toy cars on the other. I'm enamoured by the procession of old cassette tapes that run along the brickwork, a mishmash of Greek artists mixed in with 1980
Beejay's tapas style dinner is brilliant, keep the good work up, my local gem!
Very friendly staff and most importantly very good coffee. The cafe has a really nice warm vibe to it which makes it a great place to hang out and enjoy a cup of coffee and some snacks by yourself or with company. George who makes the coffee is very knowledgeable and experienced and it clearly shows through in the quality and consistency of each cup of coffee.
The coffee shop has been recently taken over by new management which clearly know what they are doing with the place.
I highly recommend you visit this cafe 5/5!
Some of the best glazed ribs I have ever eaten. The cafe presents a humble, clean, relaxing family vibe. Highly recommend if you want a good quality affordable meal.
Have been to this nice and rustic cafe at Marrickville a numbe of times. Their porkbelly + bacon & egg breakfast is mesmerizing! Their service is always nice and easygoing. Great to spend the afternoon here. They turn into a bar at night too.
Coffee: BeeJays Blend (Roasted by Single Origin Roasters)
Passion: 8/10
Crema: 7/10
Honesty buys alot of cred from me and the barista here said straight up that he wouldn't serve the single origin coffee as it was too stale.
So I ordered the house blend as a mac and while nothing exceptional, it was well espressed, not too much milk, and quickly delivered. What more could you want. Obviously as soon as the milk went in the chance of tasting any of the lighter notes went out the window, but it is still makes a good showing for coffees made with house blends.
So with records over the wall and the atmosphere looking like it is a bar preparing for the night ahead (which according to other recommendations for cocktails is not far from that truth) and a relaxed kinda vibe, it is a nice spot to sit a chill for a bit. While not a cafe I would travel to, if I was in the area I'd see it as a good option.
N.B.

High quality food & coffee.
Great value for money too.
George is a good operator & has vastly improved upon the offering of the previous owner of Beejays.
Beejay and the team are always friendly and make a consistent cup of coffee. On top of that BJ's Cyprian heritage shines through with a Cyprian touch to a range of cafe classics. A very underrated little cafe in Marrickville and always my first choice for food and coffee in a town known for great cafes.
