Hungry Bull Co. - Feock United Kingdom

Came here for coffee on a hot 37 degree day. Strong smooth latte and aircon, just the caffeine hit and fresh air I needed! A prime example of their amazing service: the waitress noticed a child looking droopy from overheat and she asked how he was feeling and offerred him icewater to help with the heat.

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!

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!

A coffee roasters in the heart of Balmain, Hungry Bull serves good coffee and a range of interesting food. Staff were friendly and engaged.
