Schelly Y.

I know this is called a sausage roll but the texture reminds me of a meatloaf in a very light pastry. It was delicious but came out so piping hot we probably had to wait five minutes before eating it. Delicious worth a trip.

PORK AND FENNEL SAUSAGE ROLL
Heather H.

Long line but it goes very quickly. Got the beef red wine and vegetable pie with house made tomato sauce. Also got the pork and fennel sausage roll. Ermagad so good. The house made tomato sauce is so gooodd. No seating inside but there are a couple of seats outdoors.

Almond croissant

Cute little bakery that packs a punch in terms of the variety they offer - food and drinks! We ended up getting a bunch of different pastries, but our favorite by far was the sausage rolls. We got both the beef and lamb, both had the perfect flakey crust and delicious meat inside.

Sausage Roll
Regina L.

We tried several meat pies during our stay in Sydney and Bourke Street Bakery was my favorite by far. We ordered their "Chunky Beef" and "Chicken Sweet Potato and Pea" ($8 each) along with a "Pork and Fennel Sausage Roll" ($7.50) and everything came out piping hot, fresh and delicious. The crust of the pies and sausage roll was flaky and crispy and the meat in all of the items were flavorful and tender. Definitely a must try if you're looking for a good meat pie! Service was quick and friendly and Bourke has a few outdoor tables and chairs for some casual outside dining.

Beef brisket, mushroom and red wine pie
Doug L.

This bakery was our favorite in Sydney. They served up coffees, pastries, meat pies and more for breakfast with both indoor and outdoor seating. As it was located next to Barangaroo Wharf, we opted to take our order to go and sit on the benches and watch both people and boats go by. While there was a line out the door when we arrived, the staff was quite efficient and quickly filled the orders. Their lamb sausage roll was one of the best we've eaten on this trip. It had a nice flaky roll and savory filling but tasted even better with the side of tomato sauce (thinner than ketchup), 25 cents extra. The unique design of the tomato packaging made it easy and mess free to squeeze out the right amount. The beef brisket, red wine and mushroom pie was also an excellent choice. It was a handful with lots of tender beef, mushrooms inside. The spinach and mushroom quiche rounded out our breakfast. Definitely one bakery that we will come back again and again on a future trip to Sydney.

Pork and fennel pastry & pistatio ginger crème brûlée
Lauren L.

Cute little bakery and busy during mid day for the business people wanting to come here for a quick coffee break. Got the two most recommended items : pork and fennel pastry and pistachio crème brûlée tart. Both were unique and delish in flavor. Workers seemed kinda of flustered when it got busy. Limited on outdoor seats

Walked down Bourke St and bought my favorite. I get it every time I walk by, except there's a bigger line. I love it!

Passed by and purchased it every time, still still a lot of people in line. This is my favorite. Recommended for everyone.

We are tourists visiting from California and stopped here walking by our first morning . The rolls and coffee were so good that we came here for breakfast our entire stay in Sydney (3 days). I wish we were staying long enough to buy one of the lovely loaves of bread.

Hello, beautiful!

BOURKE STREET!!! We ate half a dozen meat pies while on our trip to Sydney, and BS had far and away my favorite one. We rolled up around 2pm on the Queen's Birthday (a national holiday) and it was poppin' like you wouldn't believe with a line out the door--to be fair, all of Barangaroo was poppin' this day. The line moved very quickly, and we were able to snag a meat pie with beef brisket, mushroom, and red wine sauce. In other words, a combination that I've never turned down. You guys. This pie changed my life. The crust was buttery and flaky while still strong enough to support and contain the innards, and the winey briskety stew inside was everything I could've hoped for it to be. A good red wine taste without being overpowering, seasoned wonderfully without being too salty, and perfectly cooked tender brisket. I'm drooling again just thinking about it. If we hadn't had dinner reservations an hour later (yes, we did in fact need a pre-dinner snack), I would've happily gone back for second and thirds. Try this pie, you will absolutely not regret it. Fair warning: they are pretty limited on the number of tables they have, so it fills up quick when it's busy! Make sure you send someone to snag a spot, or you can always walk along the harbor and take in views with your warm steamy pie in hand.

Bourke street was one of the places recommended to me when I said I was coming to Sydney. It definitely stacked up to the recommendation. I had a beef meat pie and a chocolate cookie. I also had an orange juice and a chai latte with almond milk. The beef pie was very good - the dough was great and it was nice and hot. I think I would have preferred minced beef over the shredded way they had it though. The cookie was fabulous - it was chocolate but had cranberries or something in it which was unexpectedly delicious. The chai latte was really tasty and well made. Also it smelled delicious inside. I'd definitely return.

Pork and fennel sausage roll
Cyrus A.

Bourke Street Bakery became part of my Sydney itinerary at the recommendation of several friends, and I'm glad they told me about it. I feel like everyone already knows how good this place is, but I'll say that the sausage roll still caught me by surpriseb with how tasty and filling it was! The crust was crisp and flaky, while the sausage was juicy and packed with flavor. I also really liked the flat white, one of the best I've had in Sydney so far. I can't wait to try some of their sweet options at another location!

Amazing food, great service. This is built in a great little courtyard with several other businesses. There was a 20 minute wait but it was definitely worth it!

Meat pies are famous in Sydney and Bourke street was great. The beef pie was delicious with great tasting crust. I posted the current menu for 12/27/2019. The chocolate croissant was also excellent. It is a small corner shop with outside seating for about 12 people. It is located on the east side of Darling Harbour in Barangaroo. The mince fruit pies also a good option.

First impressions count, and GC had me at hello... That 'tash, is to curling what.... Curling is to the winter olympics. Awesome sauce! I fully expect moustache rides will be on the menu if business ever hits the skids. Alas, despite the gleeful charm of the curly coifed one, nothing short of an excellent coffee with character was going to make the all important lasting impression on me and sadly in that area GC disappoints. I gave GC the Soy Latte test and the Long Black test and it just doesn't measure up to other coffee in the area. I like strong coffee with complexity and GC just doesn't have that. It's not the worst but it is very weak despite using the same La Marzocco espresso machine (that Barista's rave about for ease of use) as other places in the area. The service at GC however is very good and to some people that's first priority. So if you aren't too fussy about your coffee and are looking for a smile and a spring in your step from an energetic soul then get your morning fix at GC, and start the day on a happy note.

First time in Australia experiencing the culture and culinary experiences. Please take that into…read moreconsideration when reading this. I also reserve 4 and 5 star reviews for exceptional service with unforgettable dining experiences. The ambience is intimate but also noisy. I will say the coffee here and in Australia in general is some of the best coffee I've ever had. I ordered (2) espresso martinis, pancakes, and the sirloin steak breakfast with a side hashbrown. My pancakes were stone cold but I will say the aesthetics on it made it edible. The pistachio butter cream was to die for. My steak was ok ; for the price I simply just wanted more. I could be wrong but I doubt it was even 6oz. If you have this place on your radar be sure to make reservations. This goes for almost every restaurant in Sydney. My server was Cassie who was very personable and even gave us tips on what to watch out for dining in Sydney.

We came in thinking it was just a coffee shop, but it's essentially a restaurant that also has a focus on coffee. They have a full bar and a window to the outside where you can order just coffee and tea to go. As for the interior it's dimly lit and sort of has romantic date night vibes. We essentially only ordered coffee and one person ordered a cake slice. The lychee cake was pretty good per my aunt. A couple people ordered the Coco Loco, which is basically an espresso martini on steroids with Nutella and something like a Ferrero Rocher. I ordered a latte and their Affogato. The latte was very smooth and BI is arguably one of the best I've ever had. Is the Affogato a cheat code because they use like a tiramisu ice cream? You could argue that case. You can also buy their blends of coffee beans, subject to availability. While the latte was very smooth, I can't say it was mind blowing but it was still pretty good.
