Amazing haloumi egg foccacia and pistachio oat matcha! Vegetarian options are what i look for and this was so so delicious! Im a sucker for pistachio cream and this blew my mind!!
First time in the area and I’m so thankful to have stumbled upon Bertoni! A welcoming environment where almost everyone is known by name, that says a lot! The English breakfast muffin is the best over ever had and the coffee was equally as good! Keep up the amazing work, I’ll definitely be back.
Bertoni Cafe is NOT just a cafe. It’s a place where the owners Albert & Tony have created comfortable place where customers have become friends who have become as close as family and created an institution in the fabric of Balmain. Their mother Maria may she rest in peace created such a warm and inviting atmosphere and would sit on her stool greeting us with kindness and Ofcoarse banana bread and her charm. I have been going to Bertoni Balmain for over 16 years. I have just about eaten every menu item, indulged in many litres of their coffee ☕️. Breakfast spaghetti 🍝 is phenomenal and so is the lasagna burger and Ofcoarse the Meatball. If you like sweet, the toasted Nutella donut. The staff are all outstanding people. I hope I get this right. Souz, Sourav, Mitch, Brig, Ang and Ofcoarse Jerry. Their staff don’t change like other places. Whilst I didn’t live in Balmain it was my goto as Albert and Tony are amongst my closest friends and I have taken my friends there and they have always taken time to sit and chat and make them welcome. Whilst I have moved away from Sydney and miss my regular Saturday morning routine at Bertoni Balmain I always find myself there when I visit Sydney. So if you need to take a break and you can make it into Balmain, then head into Bertoni and take in the atmosphere and enjoy some homemade delicious food and Ofcoarse the coffee you will ever enjoy.
I had a catch-up with a friend, and he chose Betroni Cafe—what a fantastic choice! I skipped breakfast at home and asked for a simple combo of four eggs with multigrain bread. To my surprise, they served me an absolutely delicious dish, way beyond my expectations. The flavors were spot on, and the quality was top-notch. The cafe itself has a warm and inviting atmosphere, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy great food. I came here by chance, but this place is definitely worth planning a visit for. One of the best cafes in Balmain—highly recommend!
