Dog friendly, rustic cafe with a nice menu selection and counter display of cakes and other sweet treats. Order and pay at the counter and one of the lovely waitresses will bring out your food and drinks. The bacon and egg roll was top notch as was the coffee.

A tiny coffee shop in Balmain that serves great coffee. We popped in for some coffee and sweet stuff late one afternoon. The decor is ye-olden-day-wood-come-hessian-sack which is cute and creates a nice ambience for a casual coffee. It’s an order and pay at the counter system and our meals came quick. They have a range of cronuts, pastries (sweet and savoury). The cronut could have used a little warming to soften it since it was a cold day, but is was pretty tasty none the less and the spinach pastry had a lovely flaky buttery texture. My freshly squeezed juice was excellent (no pulp and good quality oranges). This is obviously a local favourite with plenty of customers in the half hour we sat inside. Worth the trek there for the coffee alone! foodiemookie.com
People often only write reviews when they have a bad experience they want to get off their chests, but in my case, I couldn’t disagree more with the negative reviews Hungry Bull has received. You have to order and pay at the register and the staff’s homely attitude towards customer service takes some getting used to, but if you’re not in a rush and willing to have candid conversation, then this is a refreshing break from the usual, distanced experience. The coffee is fantastic, they have a simple breakfast and lunch menu that is affordable and tasty (currently a brioche roll with bacon egg and cheese is $7, where down the road it’s $12) and they don’t charge extra for soy milk. Their juices are not going to blow your mind, but they are cheaper than elsewhere and the stuff behind the glass is a bit pricey, but overall, this is a beautiful little cafe with caring and friendly staff and coffee and food that won’t disappoint. Give it a go, and leave a review!
Bad Experience.To start with it is not clear where to line up to order.More like two awkwardly competing lines in a confined space.They are unsympathetic to those who don’t have cash and want to spend below $10 on eftpos. No bank card surcharge or any such compromise. I got the impression they just wanted to fleece you for everything you had. I ordered a coffee and pointed to the table my friends and I were sitting. I also ordered some food. The waiter confusingly brought me and me only a take away cup while they had mugs. They charged an astonishing $6.95 for an orange juice which was to a large extent was just water and ice. I asked for some butter with my banana bread which they agreed to but then did not deliver. In summary I would have preferred to go to McCafe than this place. It was Expensive, there was rude customer service and average food/ coffee. I am never going back.Balmain needs better cafes!
A coffee roasters in the heart of Balmain, Hungry Bull serves good coffee and a range of interesting food. Staff were friendly and engaged.
Very average. Came here for a Saturday lunch. The interior and ambience was nice, felt like you were in a time capsule of by gone era. However, the service was non-existent considering there were hardly any customers at the cafe. The food was slow and very average and bland. Won’t be coming back any time soon. It’s such a shame! Hoping to write a good review.
