A spacious cafe inside the Entertainment Quarter, Rumfire has both indoor and outdoor seating ans plenty of space which is great for groups and those with kids. Menu displays classic cafe options which all looked great. On this occasion, I tried scrambled eggs, one of the ready made sandwiches and coffees and all were tasty and well made. Service is efficient and friendly. Apparently this cafe changed owners fairly recently and has had much better reviews then previously.
i actually cant fault it. excellent service and the food was amazing.
i had the roast chicken fillet and partner had king prawn meal. both sooo good.
Why the 2.1 score? The food and service was good. Came with a groupon voucher. Ordered eggs benedict with smoked salmon $18.50 and pineapple juice. Everything was perfect for the dish. Oozy egg, lovely hollaindaise sauce and that crispy sourdough bread. I think the juice was store bought. The only problem is the location. I do recommend though.
Came here for the $10 steak, it exceeded expectations! Asked for medium, it came medium. It's 200g and the one I had might have been more than that.
Admittedly it's not the best steak in the world, but for $10 it is incredible value. Give me $10 and I don't think I could even buy the raw ingredients.
The place is a bit drab and the service was average, there's an alfresco dining area so it can be nice if you sit outside 😊
I don't understand all the hate for this place on here. I went there tonight before the Sydney FC match and found the staff and food to be fine. Had the Angus and Camembert burger which was pretty damn delicious. Good selection of international tap beers like Sapporo and Carlsberg as well.

It is actually not a bad place the owners are friendly and the chef will go out of his way to help you. The decor had gone down over the years and could be brightened up.
Surprising good coffee with a really friendly barista. Shame they rest of the staff were either miserable or just rude. Great location in the EQ with 2 hour free parking during the day.
Children have their own menu - the Kid's Corner - and it is priced at $9.50. It contains your usual suspects - nuggets/calamari/fish with chips or penne napolitana. On weekdays at lunch time this menu is reduced in price to $6! The boys didn't eat from this menu, instead they shared the pizzas that we ordered. Pizzas come in two sizes - small ones are $15.50 and large ones are $22.50. Two large pizzas fed us easily. We had the Hawaiian and the Prosciutto pizzas and they are perfectly stone baked with thin and crispy bases. Being a bit of an olive fiend I would have loved for them to have thrown a few more on the prosciutto pizza, but that would be my only complaint.
Went to this place on Saturday night and had an amazing time, service was excellent, nice atmosphere and the food was overall good.
I don't understand why this place has such bad reviews, but I'll be back next time I'm in fox studios
Great burgers. Great food, service was as per everywhere else.
Would love to try the rest of the menu. Will be back.
Loved the bar and music. Good chillout place.
Brilliant. Had dinner here last Saturday night after going to the comedy store. Food was fantastic, we ordered a garlic bread, pizza and a burger. Service was fast and all the staff were friendly and efficient. Would definitely go back.
Had a Saturday night dinner here, reasonably quiet although was 9.30pm. Food was resonably priced for what we got and was really very tasty and service was prompt. Would visit again for sure.
Liked it. Good food, good service.. My husband and I were hesitant to go to Rumfire because of the poor reviews; however, it is a great restaurant at Fox Studios and I would definitely go again! We had 3 courses, and the food was very yummy and the servings were huge. we had the panko jalapenos and homemade tortilla chips for entres, for mains i had the steak and my husband had the ribs, and we had the rumfire cappuccino and the apple tart for desert (they were huge, we probably should have shared 1!).
The staff were friendly and attentive, and we received our food in a timely fashion.
I felt compelled to write this review because honestly, I have no idea where all the negative reviews come from because it was a good bistro / cocktail bar. We regularly dine in and around surry hills and Rumfire is as good or better as any other restaurant of the same category.
GREAT place to dine. I recently dined here (for the first time) with some of my family. I thought the service and the food was exceptional.
When I made the booking (days earlier) I asked about the full duck and how it was to be cooked/served etc. I was told that they no longer had it on the menu, but despite this they were still happy to order one in for me and fulfil my request. I was impressed!
So, we ordered a bunch of entrees to share and then we had the duck as main. Every dish that we ordered was perfect and delicious. The dishes were substantial and we struggled to finish our wonderful meal. We didn’t order dessert.
The staff members were amazing (it wasn’t too busy on this night). From the wait staff, to the bar staff to the chef ... they all receive 10:10 from me. Not to mention the bloke who took my reservation booking, as he gets an 11:10.
The chef also came to check that we were enjoying his deliciously cooked duck ... wow, it was great!
We enjoyed a nice bottle of white from Lisa McGuigan Winery (at a fair price) plus some delicious single glasses of reds. The wine list is rather small, but has some good quality at reasonable prices.
So, my experience here was fantastic. My family was very impressed and I could/would easily return.
One issue: The bathrooms are unisex and on a busy night I could see the ladies would hog them. How about installing a stand-up job for the blokes?!
I absolutely love this place! The mini burgers are a highlight and a perfect size as well! The vibe is great and the bar area has some great drinks went here on a date and we loved it the place has so many different sections its spacious but has an intimate vibe. I would definitely recommend this place I have been in many times for the burgers!
Good food and interior design - this is what matters and why I've 'liked' this place.
As previous reviews noted - and is permissible while a new place gets its legs - the service is abysmal.
No greeting, waiters (especially one in a floral shirt) avoid eye contact when trying to order, someone else we asked twice about ordering and went away without anything happening. Finally got to order when we got up and went to the cash register to ask for someone. From then in smooth sailing and smiles.
Crispy skin salmon with perfectly balanced sauces and nice waxy baby potatoes, a delicate fillet of charred barramundi with chips and salad and the kitchen whipped up a tantalizing vegetarian linguini at our request (sadly there is nothing vegetarian on the menu except for soup).
We had a wonderful lunch, sitting in the open,, watching the people walk by. My grilled salmon was cooked to perfection, as were the other meals we ordered.
Pleasant atmosphere and a decent selection of food that is actually really quite good. The prices are reasonable and the serving sizes are good too.
Good taste. But food takes awhile to come out from the kitchen. I guessed at the time, there were only three people working in the kitchen for a full house.
The best lamb shank I ever had!!!!!!! I can't imagine they can handle in that busy period with thousand people around and all of them in the rush to watch the game, Even though we have to replace our order to the counter, that's not a big deal for me, I still got excellent service from them either so whats the matter? The Lady in the counter was very nice and friendly and let us know, minimum half an hour waiting, but I didn't expect they send the food out, with the normal time. Will come again definitely. Really Recommended...
