The Hungry Monkey - Our Story

The Hungry Monkey was originally the brainchild of two childhood friends. Both at pivotal points in their lives, with a dream and what seemed a wealth of experience in the industry they decided to take the leap. Flash forward seven years and they are now both the owners and operators of cafes in Kiama, Berry, Bowral and Thirroul + a Food Truck… with growing plans for the future.

Established in Kiama in 2015 when burgers were bland, a time where the phrase was used to describe processed and passionless food. Here at The Hungry Monkey our licence to grill is much more poetic. We have proven that the secret to a good burger is more of an art form than anything else. We are dedicated to creating food that makes a statement.

Since its conception we have only had one goal, to provide a wholesome dining experience from the table to your taste buds. With customer satisfaction always a core focus, we never just wanted to be a stop on the way, we wanted to be the destination. As a community driven business, building a rapport with everyone who walks through our doors is paramount to us. 

Located just 1.5 hours south of Sydney, our distinctive and mouth watering menu will ensure there is something for everyone. Open seven days a week for breakfast and lunch and Wednesdays for dinner. Don’t just eat food, experience it here at The Hungry Monkey.
