The Shop & Wine Bar

This venue is one of Good Food’s 100 Essential Sydney Cafes and Bakeries of 2026

Things come and go at Bondi, but this all-day cutie has been feeding locals since 2004. Maybe its “homey” vibes are the secret to its staying power – with a handful of tables (inside and out) and an efficient, barely-there kitchen, it makes regulars feel like they’re eating at their own tiny apartments. Joking.

Kind service and a well-rounded menu keep the cafe busy throughout the day: eggs and strong coffee in the morning; salads and sandwiches after noon; and glasses of wine at happy hour.

Good to know: Happy hour is 4pm to 6pm, with drinks from $9.
