Bungalow 8

i went bungalow 8 for a friend’s birthday i had a amazing time i had fish and chips also the melon dollar baby mocktail i liked the mocktail and fish and chips cant wait to come here soon

I have throughout the year been eating on and off at Bungalow 8, always with family. As a pescatarian, I always found a variety of amazing options. The Fish & Chips and Barramundi (the previous recipe with Asian noodles, not the revised one) were something to die for. We used to visit for dinner at least twice a month - easy walk from my Kent St. apartment. The decline started from around October 2025. While service remained good, the cooking standards and portion sizes started to dwindle. In November, I was thoroughly disappointed with the small portion / ultra-thin cut of the newly introduced tuna. But, the rock-bottom was tested today, on NYE. I ordered my old favourite Fish & Chips to celebrate bidding farewell to 2025. I moved to Sydney from Singapore, where culinary standards are high, but I never found top-notch Fish & Chips there. I have always loved the Fish & Chips in Australia, viz. the batter being nicely puffed and crisp, the fish inside being succulent and fresh, piping hot, perfectly cooked, yet not the least oily. And, amongst all the places, my vote always went to Bungalow 8 for rustling up the best. Today, however, It was pathetic; it was shockingly oily, with oil all over the plate, oozing, dripping out of the fried fish - see photo. In the first place, this change of serving one hunk of a fillet as opposed to two nicely manageable, leaner fillets - which started in November - didn’t win my support. Still, I didn’t bother much, as long as the total weight of fish remained similar and the dish tasted right! Imagine my disappointment today at being served fish that was soaked wet in oil. Crowded lunch hour? Not really … at 12:30 pm, although it’s NYE, it wasn’t that crowded. New chef? Who knows … maybe standing in for the main one who’s off on break? Whatever the reason, shame on you, Bungalow 8, for serving that dish and daring to call it Fish & Chips!!! All I can say is that you have your work well cut out, if you have any desire to recover old standards. Otherwise, it’s just a matter of time before that rating slips below 4.

Very vibrant happening bar in Barangaroo plaza with variety of food and drinks. Digital touchless order available at tables. Seatings are FCFS or through reservations. Ordering at the bar can get hectic but overall welcoming and responsive staff. Great location with view to the harbor and people watching.

A great vibe and DJ we spent time Sat, night it was just 2 of us and we loved and enjoyed the e vibe to the most. Music was so good, we had ordered a plate of food was delicious. The cocktails and the drinks were beautiful. Very popular club 2 separate levels we were mostly upstairs.

We popped in for a quick drink and a snack. Loved the vibe! The Halloween decorations were fun, and the atmosphere was chill. Drinks were on point, and the chicken wings were tasty and juicy. The only miss was the calamari, which was a bit too dry and didn’t feel very fresh. Still, a great spot to hang out and I’d definitely come back to try more!
