Koshari Korner is a little pop up Egyptian Vegan street food vendor inside the Addison Road Community centre. The store originally opened in 2016 as a pop up stall, but now permanently part of the centre. The venue is super casual, you sit on little picnic type tables under a marquee type tent adjacent to the parking lot. The vibe is calm and the music makes you feel comfortable. Owner Walid migrated to Australia and has made this business focusing on selling his Egyptian food, and in particular the iconic Koshari dish. We tried this and really enjoyed the vegan mix of lentils, pasta, and rice into a single dish topped with chickpeas, crispy onion rings and a fragrant tomato salsa. We also shared crispy cauliflower with tahini, falafel bites with pickles and tahini, grilled eggplant with rocket and tahini. We also tried the crispy little sambousek parcels, made with sweet potato, onion, cashews and spices. The food was really tasty, sold at really reasonable prices and staff were nice and hospitable. Drink wise they have coffee, tea and soft drinks. We tried a really refreshing iced hibiscus tea. It paired perfectly with the meal. They open daily from 8 - 4, so a good option to pop by for a meal.

Loved the middle eastern vibes. Authentic Egyptian food, absolutely delicious!

Great authentic Egyptian koshary. Great place for vegetarians. Must try the koshary, with Chili if you like spicy food.

Such a cosy relaxed venue tucked away in the inner west. We got the share plate and the cauliflower which was so delicious. The flavour was on point and the falafel was so crunchy but also not dry. Would come back for sure!

I've tried so many vegan foods but Koshari Korner had foods that was so tasty. The outdoor seating ambience was even more amazing with the Egyptian set up along with Egyptian songs. They had a very friendly service as well. I would say even if you are not vegan its worth a try. I will definitely come back again to other dishes as well.

Beautiful exotic flavors! We visited this gorgeous restaurant and loved the experience. You’re spoiled with a large all-vegan menu and there are so many options to try. Customer service was amazing and even though we didn’t get to try the famous koshari as it was sold out, we tried the falafel wrap, ful and shakshouka and fell in love with the flavors! The decor is very tasteful with humble and exotic Eastern vibes. I highly recommend their cashew baklavas as well. They’re soooo delicious, very crispy, authentic and balanced and so reasonably priced. I had never tasted vegan baklavas so good before! I’ll get a large box next time! 11/10! We’ll be back!!!

We just loved the place as we had not tried authentic Egyptian food before. The main guy is really humble and would give him 10/5 for hospitality and service. The food is super duper tasty and portion size is sufficient: we promised to come back with friends next time. Loved the gesture of not charging us for the baklawa at the end.

Absolutely top notch! It really is like being in a part of Egypt. Koshari and Falafel were very authentic. No difference than Egypt. Atmosphere was great. Staff were super friendly. Highly recommended

Amazing food and super friendly service! If you’re looking for a casual and tasty vegan lunch or dinner out in warm surrounds, this is your place! The Egyptian moussaka was crazy good!

Hidden inside a beloved community centre in Marrickville, you’ll find a trailer-turned-eatery called Koshari Korner serving Egyptian street food. It’s a really charming set-up. There’s an undercover eating area with wall-art and floor mats of what appears to be a traditional Egyptian design - lots of red and yellow-hued patterns. I was first told about this place last year by someone who used to work in the community centre, and finally got the chance to visit with my friend Cherie from @thrivingonplants . We have a You Tube video coming soon so stay tuned! As the name suggests, they specialise in koshari. It’s a dish that mixes pasta, rice and lentils, topped with fried shallots, chickpeas and sauce that very much resembles a tomato salsa. Despite being a carb-heavy dish, it feels exceptionally light when you eat it. I loved the tomato and earthy chickpea flavours coming through as you stir into it, and the crunch of the toppings. I was told that koshari is served on carts all over the streets of Egypt! Other Egyptian snacks on the menu were quite reminiscent of the Middle Eastern Lebanese and Iraqi foods I was more familiar with - but different. They do sambousek (triangular pastries), but instead of a cheese or spinach filling, it had other veggies inside and you dip it into tahini or that tomato salsa sauce. They do falafel too, but the Egyptian falafel uses fava beans instead of chickpeas which results in more of a deep green colour, and a less soft filling texture. The BEST thing here though was the shakshouka. Their version used chickpeas, tomato, garlic and onion, olives and some of the tastiest slices of eggplant and silken tofu I’ve tried. Phenomenal with some flat-bread. Note that there’s no egg in the shakshouka, so it’s a vegan dish. Actually, everything on their menu is vegan. Apparently meat was very expensive in Egypt when KK’s owner Walid was growing up there, so Egyptian street food with meat was uncommon. I’ve also heard they serve an incredible molokheya stew, a thick and flavourful soup, from another customer. I didn’t try it though, maybe next time 🙂 📍 Koshari Korner, Marrickville @kosharikorner

This is our first time having Egyptian dishes and wow, we love it a lot (inspired by the YouTube video by Sydney Food Boy)! We were here on Saturday just before 1pm and we ordered a mixed plate (everything on the plate were spot on), shakshouka and fried bread! First time trying the koshari and it was so delicious (love the combination of spaghetti, chickpea, lentils and rice in a single dish especially paired it with the vinegar and chili oil, just so flavorful). Also love the vegan version of the shakshouka with tofu, so flavorful. We also love the ambience and also the service was excellent (super friendly). Highly recommended and we will definitely be back 😊 Note that this is located in the community center, and when we were there, there were plenty of parking in the parking lot!

Absolutely delicious vegetarian food. Love the fun setup and relaxed atmosphere. Food is good value and good portions. We shared the Mixed Plate, Cauliflower Plate, rose hot chocolate and lemon mint drinks. My favourite was the cauliflower, as well as the falafel and eggplant in the mixed plate. It’s not a fully enclosed place but it doesn’t get very cold. And they have heaters. Just bring a jumper 😊 We’ll definitely be coming back!

Short and sweet review here... Needed a quick bite. Just a roll and some sambousek. No other customers other than someone grabbing takeaway coffee. Unfortunately I got a case of the dreaded double combo - slow prep time and smallish portions (for the price). Now, I'll come back and say that both staff were super friendly, perhaps were recently busy with dine in patrons that left as we arrived. The food that we were given was tasty-a-f... ... But there just wasn't much. For $32 and fifteen minutes, the result was a large snack not a late lunch. Will try again, because other aspects were great.

Great experience!! Tasty Egyptian food as if you are eating in Egypt.. perfect choice for vegans.. Mix plate is highly recommended if you wantnto get a taste of everything delicious item, then end your meal with a piece of lovely vegan Baklava...

I recently ordered food for a get together at my home and the food was really amazing. It was the first time my friends and family members tried Egyptian cuisine and everyone loved the food. Thank you so much for the wonderful food. Would love to come down to store and try other dishes as well.

Delicious Egyptian falafel wrap in a quiet and comfortable setting, all for the reasonable price of $12. I thought the falafels were very well cooked, crispy and fluffy on the inside. I enjoyed the flavours of the spices, but thought there was a bit too much whole coriander which made for some intense bites. I'll definitely be back to try out more of their dishes.

Cute little outdoor room that is decorated with red carpeted walls and small tables, just off the caravan which serves up some great middle eastern dishes to have in our take away. It's straight forward street food but predominantly wraps and other vegan based dishes. Nicely tucked away at the back of the carpark which is well known to locals.
