Feeling famished after playing tennis at Sydney Uni on Sunday, the guys and I went for a drive and headed down to Bourke St bakery in Marrickville for a snack.
The outside has a very cool 80's retro feel.
The wooden shelves and the menu written on blackboards match the retro chic outside.
Unfortunately though, by 2pm most of the pastries were already sold out.
Lamb, Almond & Harissa sausage roll. The best thing about this was the sauce.
Pork & Fennel sausage roll. Sooo tasty! Winner!
Beef Pie.
Beef Brisket, Red Wine & Mushroom Pie.
Hot baked goods menu.
Overall it wasn't bad. The pastry was flaky and buttery, and despite looking a little burnt, tasted very good (that was probably because they had sat in the warmer for a while). The pork and fennel sausage roll filling was delicious though, and this place makes a good alternative to Harry's Cafe de Wheels/Hannah's Pies. I wish I had tried the chicken, pea, sweet potato, lime and pickle signature pie though.. maybe that would have made it amazing.
Sigh.. still haven't found an aussie pie to match the ones in New Zealand :(
