My favourite breakfast, lunch & brunch places

The best salads and sandwiches in Bondi Beach and one of my favourite lunchtime spots. They do breakfast - It's kosher .so pastrami rather than bacon. They also switch it up for dinner.

Saturday morning food markets. Opens at 9 and closes around midday. Lot's to choose from for breakfast or brunch & coffee snacks. It's also the place to shop for organic produce from surrounding farms that come to you.

Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch & Wine Bar

I favourite with locals . The menu is simple - but what they do they do well. Small with most of the seating outside. Great for coffee with snacks or wine with a cheese platter. Tip - the late afternoon happy hour is a great deal.

Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch & Dinner

A little more upmarket than the usual casual beach vibe of most other places I recommend. Pricier - but quality food and luxurious surrounds with plenty of space still makes this a value offer.

Dinner

Great Asian food in Bondi Beach. I think they are open for lunch or and even a version of yum-cha now as well.

Bondi needs more leafy courtyards - and this one by Justin Hemmes shows the way forward. This is particularly good for grounds with fab share plates - but it's also a fab date spot too.

They have a double cheeseburger that is the bomb - it's not on the menu - you have to ask for it. Unfortunately, it's not the best place to hang out (Bondi Tony's burger joint is better for hanging and have better fries and beers) - but it's the best burger I've had in Sydney.

For when you want to treat yourself or impress guests. Best for lunch or early dinner to take in the views. You can also just go to to bar without booking - the bar menu is more than enough to keep you happy.

The views are better at lunchtime, but the cocktail bar (which also sells barfood snacks) can become a sexy little scene around sunset - epecially on Sundays.

Actually not my favourite burger in Bondi - see Burger Park for that - but it's a great place to hang and they do the best fries and have great beer on tap.
