I met a friend for lunch and no trouble parking in a nearby free carpark just steps from the entrance. When you first enter you notice it is clean and reasonably quiet especially when taking into account its size. In addition there is adequate seating for a variety of group sizes and the tables do not feel cramped or crowded with unnecessary condiments or extraneous items. As you approach the ordering area you will be enticed to grab something sweet! I certainly was, but only with Herculean effort did I resist (this time). At this visit there was an orange polenta muffin prominently displayed at eye level and a raspberry brownie that called out to me from among the delicious and fresh looking selections... Looking over the menu there were a variety of selections to appeal to everyone, including veggos! I decided on a toastie with smoked salmon and scrambled egg. It had an attractive appearance and was, indeed, delicious if just a tad too salty. Though I didn't have coffee at this visit I will be back as I understand it is of the cold pressed variety!! And make no mistake, I will be back, that polenta muffin is still calling out to me... read more

If you live nearby this will soon become your preferred meeting spot or oasis of solitude. If you don't live nearby, you'll wish you did. Quality breakfasts, variety of roasted beans, friendly and professional staff. A variety of seating options, from booths and tables to long share tables. The only option missed is some lounge chairs. Free wifi, just ask staff for the current code. read more

Came here on recommendation of a friend, oh what a lovely place! I never knew such a chic little restaurant existed so close to home. Sefton and Northpark areas are a bit of a dead zone for fine dining, unless you consider Mcdonalds 'fine dining' so this place just makes me happy to my little pink haired core! The place had a welcoming feeling to it, patrons dotted the inside and out, some utilizing the free Wi-Fi others seemed to be in business related meetings, it felt like you were in a typical New York City Cafe, without the busy, busy, busy rush n' go part. The place was fairly clean, however the table we sat at was slightly sticky, not enough to make me shift, but enough to make me notice it. I ordered a lime milkshake, as they had no white hot chocolate - and a Ham and Cheese Croissant. The milkshake came out after about 10 minutes, in a big yellow cup...not exactly sure what they were going with there, really lost at their intention with the cups considering everything else went together so darn well, top to bottom. The food came out seconds later. I HIGHLY recommend their Ham and Cheese Croissants, at $7.50 I was a tad weary, but they were well worth the price. The Ham - cheese ratio is great, I've had croissants that have either been too hammy or too cheesy, maybe I was just lucky, but that croissant was crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, and filled with melty, cheesy meaty goodness - the kind that when it hits your belly it fills you with a happy warmth. The lime milkshake was mediocre, not as flavourful as I'd have liked, there was a hint of lime there, but it felt like I was drinking a big cup of milk from a kids cup, it didn't stop me from enjoying the lovely service and meal. Too bad I am not a coffee person, if I was - this place would probably gain the elusive 5 star rating from me. Ah, who am I kidding, I love this little place! 5 STARS! read more

I'm always really torn when it comes to bagels. I love them, absolutely love them, but they're also often quite small. So when I order one for lunch I'm always umming and ahhing over whether it will be enough. Imagine my surprise when the spectacular smoked salmon bagel was brought to my table. It was gorgeous, and took a bit of deconstructing before I could eat it. You know I kind of wish it did leave me unsatisfied, only because I was really dying to sample some of the sweeter things on the menu as well. Their waffles, French toast, and blueberry bagel all sound amazing, but I think I'll have to save them for a weekend breakfast sometime. It was packed full of Mums and bubs, many of them seemed to file out at around 12:30 and that's when people showed up for their lunch break. I was actually sick, and I was able to get a comfy spot in the corner an just enjoy some food without having to cook anything myself. I've only been in the area for 2 weeks, but I'm hoping many weekends are filled with a breakfast at the Coffee Barun. read more

I don't venture up this way often but when I do, I make every opportunity to stop here. Always great coffee and an interesting menu. Food is fresh and delicious, none of which leaves any greasy sickly taste in your mouth. We also found their portions to be generous. The kitchen certainly delivers on the flavours be it their breakfast, big burgers or other lunch menu items. Over time we've had the big breakfast, Thai style beef salad, and salmon. Proteins have been cooked perfectly each time. The beef salad's dressing had just the right balance with generous tender slices of seared beef. I haven't tried any of their pastries or cakes but they always look good. I should really try some next time, good companion for a coffee. The restaurant itself has abundant seating, it's quite lovely spacious and bright in there. read more

This is a cafe a frequent a lot and every time I go there, I'm not disappointed. First up, they roast their own coffee which makes them a winner already. The coffee is on the strong side but delicious. Their food is always yummy and well priced - but make sure you get in before 2.30pm as they close their kitchen early. As for the space, it's warm and comfortable and I LOVE that they have a little kids corner with a large table where we can hang out and watch the little ones play. It's perfect for a mum's group catch up and I often go here for business meetings. Parking can be found at the back but there are only a few parks available so I recommend parking in the car park across the road. It does get busy so be prepared to wait to find a table at busy times of the day. If you haven't been here, you should. read more

One of my favourite places to go for breakfast and/or lunch, always very friendly staff and always greeted with a smile, I even got complimented on my comedic t-shirt I ordered the ham and cheese croissant, this is one of my favourite things to eat here, in my opinion one of the best ones I've eaten to date, soft fluffy pastry on the inside with a nice crispy flaky shell, the ham to cheese ratio was great, but could use a tad more cheese I also ordered the Belgian hot chocolate, also fantastic, a very creamy and nice tasting chocolate, nothing like the usual chocolate powered 2min drinks most places sell, Only negative is that they have stopped making the Belgian White Hot chocolate, that was the main reason i began dining here many years ago, but the food and remaining beverages make up for it's loss read more

This would have to be the best place in Adelaide for coffee hands down. I stopped here one day on my daily drive to work in the CBD and now it is my daily morning coffee stop. They do a great bacon and egg roll and also have had the pleasure of trying their home made crumpets which were the best I have ever tried. Do yourself a favour and try their chai latte, you won't regret it. read more

Great coffee, great bfast menu. Highly recommend the omelet. It's often busy on weekends so u will need to go early. meal sizes are big. Baristas are very good and there is a good selection of coffee styles including cold drip. For parents there is a small corner for the kids. read more

What an excellent cafe! I'm sad I didn't know it was there sooner! I've seen the signs and thought it was just a small cafe, little did I know hiding inside was a bustling secret that is too good to keep a secret. The staff were all too happy to serve, friendly, engaging. Their coffee had all the attention to detail that you need when you just want a good coffee! I had eggs Benedict, amazing. Excellent hollandaise, cannot be faulted and the serving size which was very generous. This is what Adelaide is about! I hope to come back a bit more when I'm in town!!! read more

Good coffee but quite expensive. Not many GF options either and breakfast is very expensive given shitty location on busy main road. Won't return for a while... read more

This is by far the best coffee in Adelaide! There is one word to describe the Barun: consistency. This place is my regular during the work week, and much to my wife's chagrin, the bane of my bank account. It's absolutely cracking coffee is roasted on site and you can buy their beans by the bag there. They do take-away coffees for relatively standard prices, but I've found it tastes far better if you grab a seat and have your coffee as the Lord intended it (not to mention you can then partake in the coconut sugar jars they have there). Haven't eaten here that much, but the three times I have, I haven't been disappointed. The food seems pretty fresh and tasty. Adding to that, I've found the staff to be fairly friendly and provide good service. read more

Perfect place to hang out and with good food. Best eggs benedict Ive ever had. The bread was toasted to perfection, bacon was cooked the way I like it. That hollandaise sauce, amazing... Everywhere I had have eggs benedict the sauce was always too sour. Just parking will be a hassle.. read more

With a bit of a funny location, situated on a main road a few k's from the city, Coffee Barun has relocated a short time ago to a much bigger newer residence only a few doors down. The Coffee Barun serve wonderful breakfast (all day for late risers like me), the coffee is the real winner. They roast on site and supply to a few other cafes in SA. You can buy beans or ground coffee, along with equipment and learn from the best first-hand about your coffee and how to use it. read more

Only just discovered this place and I'm so glad I have!! The breakfast was next level amazing. My partner had the big breakfast and he's a big eater.... he struggled. My breakfast was from their lighter menu and I struggled to finish it... I made sure I ate it all though as it was delish!! The avocado was so fresh and the potato hash brown was amazing.... and the coffee!!! Oh my! I think I'll be here every weekend now! read more

Had an amazing brunching experience today at the beautiful Coffee Barun. Being a Saturday afternoon, it was fairly busy, but the room is spacious, it's almost impossible to not get a seat. While looking through their delicious and mouthwatering menu, which offered the perfect breakfast, brunch, or lunch meal, I found myself indecisive. So, when I finally went up to order what I would normally get (eggs benedict), I was waiting in line and saw the specials board! OMG - And I'm so happy I did! I got the Avocado salsa, bacon and poached eggs on rye, sprinkled with sunflower and pumpkin seeds! And it was incredible!! Once I ordered it took about 5-10 minutes not the food and I was pleasantly surprised seeing as they were so busy! Overall, I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a filling and tasty brunch. Next time, I look forward to trying their coffees - I've heard they are great (: read more

Stopped here on the way to the Barossa, recommended by a friend. We were not disappointed! The food was excellent - very tasty! We had the Barun burger and the breakfast quesadilla. Both very good! Service was great as well. They were very friendly and keen for a chat. Would highly recommend! read more

What an awesome discover. Somehow ended up in this part of town looking for a coffee and a bite to eat and I stumbled upon The Coffee Barun. I ordered a Flat White and a Bacon and Egg Roll. The coffee was perfectly made and delicious. And the roll was fresh and hot! Perfect! To top it off, all of this was made quickly and with great service. read more

Owned by my beautiful friends Mark & Kate, their vision for great quality roasted coffee and great service has expanded as much as their business has grown. Starting it's days in a teeny, squeezy, little place quickly showed the need for their presence in the neighborhood when they fast surpassed expectation and space requirements. Moving to their current residence hasn't just shown their boom in popularity, it's allowed them to show how they handicraft their passion for coffee through open cupping sessions, roasting beans in-house with the public invited to watch, participate and get their coffee knowledge soaring. And if that couldn't possibly be enough, they have increased their menu items to accommodate fresh flavors and ideas, presentation and range by enjoying cooks and staff who are equally as passionate about great quality service as the Baruns are. Have you never been? Change that! Change that now! read more

I really love this place. Finally a groovy little establishment on the cultural wasteland that in Main North Road. The food is good, they do a great breakfast. Coffee is amazeballs, although very strong so beward the heart palpitations. read more

A nice place with good feels but no wow factor to make me want to drag anyone back here in a hurry. The cafe/restaurant scene in Adelaide is pretty fierce and without something to set your place apart, it can get lost amongst the shining stars. This is the second time I've been here and both times I've liked their (standard) breakfast fare - think bacon & eggs on toast - but found service & speed to be a (little) bit lacking. However the atmosphere is nice & I'm sure for those living within walking distance, this place must be a godsend! read more

The coffee beans are roasted in the shop and the coffee is consistently superb. The service is friendly and attentive but not obtrusive. The food, much of which is produced on the premises is excellent. The prices are reasonable. This is a place where coffee is understood and respected. The best coffee in Adelaide? Quite possibly, but five Yelp stars, any day. read more

I've been here a few times, meeting up with fellow mums which seems to be the done thing at this particular location. Although confusingly, the entrance is by stairs with no visible ramp for the multitude of prams that visit. The family friendly nature is reflected in the dedicated play space and kid friendly offerings. The coffee is good with a variety of types and serving styles available. The food is upmarket and also tasty but you get what you pay for, it's definitely on the pricey side which is unusual in that particular area. Still it's pretty popular and offers a discerning coffee drinker a lot of choice outside of the CBD. read more

If you go here on a weekend prepare to wait for your food and maybe even a table unless you are willing to share. That said there's a reason for the long wait. Despite the location The Coffee Barun is an amazing place for a delicious cup of coffee and a decadent breakfast or lunch. My partner always gets the eggs benedict or the big barun breakfast. Myself, i like the french toast which comes with a serve of bacon and maple syrup. We're both always full to bursting and so satisfied. The staff are wonderfully kind, despite the stress they must be under. The atmosphere is lovely and there is a constantly changing display of art on the walls which ranges from interpretive to classic. If you're driving along Main North Road and want a coffee or a delicious meal stop by the coffee barun. But be warned, the long wait and competitively high prices may not be worth going out of your way it. read more

Stumbled across this place on the way back from a work trip. First impressions count and when we entered what a surprise! The waft of grinding coffee hit us as we made our way across the polished concrete floors to the counter. We ordered coffees and a couple of salads. I had the spiced lamb salad and it looked AMAZING as you can see from the pic. And the taste was equally impressive. Lamb nice and rare, green leaves so fresh, and combo of olives, cherry toms and fetta went perfectly together. The generous spill of beetroot raita topped it off! My colleague was just as chuffed with her Roast Pumpkin Salad. This is a must try if you're anywhere near it, in fact even if you're miles away! read more

The Barun - Too good to eat! - Cafes Near Me - Sefton Park, SA

So disappointed. Finally decided we would try this place since there's been so much hype. HUGE LETDOWN! We pulled up and there was someone standing outside and they were still standing outside after we parked. Now it's after 7 (they open at 7 per their posted opening hours) it's cold and there are 4 staff wondering around inside. 5 minutes later it's now even later after 7, staff still wandering, doors still closed. No we didn't wait around. If your going to post opening hours then open when you say. And if your machines aren't ready no big, but let your customers in outta the cold, don't make them stand around watching you In your cozy warm surrounds. Huge thumbs down on this. Won't be going back. And PS, heard from a friend that the coffee is sub-par anyway. Good for us the customer service is crap too. Give this one a miss. Head to muzz buzz a few metres up the road or Cibos on Prospect. Don't waste anytime standing around here! read more

I have been to the Coffee Barun on numerous occasions, inviting others to experience it's "wonderfulness." I have to admit, this time it was a little disappointing-but note that I found that the exception. The good stuff - they roast their own coffee, have beans for sale, and make a mean latte. No bucket cups though, so I am limited to three shots in their large cup. They also have a great kitchen and turn out fine brekkies. They have some interesting sweets from the kitchen too, along with a limited, but high quality selection of cakes, tarts and brownies on display. Today's visit was less than stellar though. Absolutely NO napkins out for guests to grab. None, nada, zero, zip. No napkin, not even a little one came out with my latte. Then brekkie arrived. An omelet - but still no napkin. The knife and fork were on the plate, but the serviette was absent. I hunted about, but finally got one by asking at the barista station, where I was grudgingly handed one skimpy napkin by the server who brought out my breakfast. I love trees too-but this was a bit much. My second issue was asking for onions instead of cheese on my omelet. The order taker had to confer with the kitchen, but I ended up getting permission to order what I wanted. I mention this because on an earlier visit I requested a change to an order, the kitchen conference took place, and I was told that they were "too busy" to accommodate my request (I think in that case it was for tomato instead of onion, I really don't remember-but it was simple.) There are lots of coffee cafe choices and one way to distinguish yourself in the marketplace is with customer service. Sadly, today the Coffee Barun was undistinguished. I'll be back. They always make a great coffee. But if I have more bad customer service issues, I'm outta' here. As always, eat, drink and be merry. But not too much! JD read more

Did well to fit us in on a very seedy Sunday, huge compliments to the barista(s) the coffee was stunning and the eggs benedict was godly. Highly recommended, but like most brunch places in/around adelaide, worth giving them a call to see if the cab fit you in as to avoid waiting for too long on a busy morning. read more

My husband and I had breakfast here this morning and it was so good, I just had to write a review. The food is amazing and coffee is beautiful. Friendly service and great environment. Highly recommend. The only downside (if I had to be picky) was that my husband ordered the big breakfast which comes with chorizo ... The sausage was one of those tiny breakfast sausages, when he was expecting a standard chorizo sausage, which disappointed him slightly. Still tasted great though! read more

Dropped by for lunch yesterday, although have been to the Barun many times before. It's one of those places that is good, but I always want it to be that little bit better. The coffee is good, my meat lovers pizza was yummy (although next time I will choose a slightly lighter option for lunch!!) but the staff never really seem happy. Have noticed on a number of occasions now, not sure whether its because the place gets so busy or what. A few smiles never go astray. read more

Just had the roasted pumpkin and feta salad and I can truly say this is the BEST salad I have ever had! The roasted almonds made the dish. My mum had the salmon salad which was disappointing..very bland and not much asparagus. Had one of the caramel baked cheesecakes for dessert - also amazing! read more

Great coffee and awesome atmosphere. The food was so good I went back two days in a row and had to go again a week later. Highly highly recommend read more

Their coffee is great and the smell of coffee roasting ON THE PREMISES is well worth a visit. Enough said. The coffee does change a little depending on what they have chosen to serve - personally I think they should stick to their BEST and sell the RESTbut each to their own. I've had breakfast here twice and enjoyed it on both occasions. It was appetising and delicious and hard to fault. The location isn't great and there's no outside seating but The Barun won't disappoint. read more

Where? Asked my hipster and eastern suburb friends. Sefton Park. Great coffee (they roast their own) and good food. I'll be back for sure.

A customer should never be made to feel publicly humiliated, and that's what happened today at The Coffee Barun, at 11:00am Fri 20th March. When customers ask me to make them exactly what they want I am appreciative, after all, they are paying for it. It is not hard to hold the dust on a cappuccino, nor is it hard to make sure it is frothy. The comments made were hurtful and humiliating in front of many customers and staff, and laughter at our expense was not necessary after we were clearly not impressed. This is the first time my colleague has been to The Barun and the last for us both. I have never seen such a rude, inconsiderate, self absorbed barista. Anyone can make a pretty coffee. A good barista will be able to build relationships with the customers of that business. They will respect the customer, make them feel special and valued. They will never consider their roll more important than another, and will be a team player for the sake of the customer, no matter who they're working with or how difficult the customer seems at the time. Above all they will always aim to delight the customer with outstanding coffee and service. Please, bring back the 'barista' that aims to please the customer, not themselves.

Barun is a funny word. That's the way I decided was best to start this review. Anyway on Main North Road there isn't much hustle nor bustle. Thankfully Barun's is there to make a mid-morning brew that much more special. Aside from the coffee, they serve up an delicious breakfast menu. With all the usual suspects and a nice selection of sweet treats to indulge. Calling themselves the connoisseur of fine coffee they hold up this reputation. I'm a fan of their blend, however sometimes the it can come out a little too hot. read more

coffee is good but nothing special, not as good as reputation suggests, not sure of food. Plenty of room for pranks which makes it family friendly and worth the fourth star. nowt else this side of town read more

One of the best places for coffee in Adelaide and efficient, friendly and helpful staff as well; food is pretty good too.

I love this place! Best coffee I've had in Adelaide. Consistently good. They use a different blend everyday, which is a great way to find out which of their beans suits your personal taste. They roast their own beans - they know what they're doing & it shows. I've never been disappointed with the food & all day breakfast is always a winner! If you enjoy good coffee, you MUST try this place! read more

excellent coffee and service every single time! super quick, experienced, friendly service, small but functional and funky space. a limited range of food, but always a selection to tempt you! read more
