The best coffee in Bondi

Melbourne’s Sensory Lab Roastery (our Melbourne office loves coffee so much they've even set up in the same building) have opened up a caffeine cavern that plays Cash and Dylan while serving kick-arse coffee.

Little Marionette beans are always a safe bet and the coffee here is rich and strong. Change things up and go for the cold drip. It comes with a little jug of coconut water that gives the coffee a perfumed, almost floral flavour.

It’s all about bagels, brioche and brisket at this New York deli-inspired bakery café. But did you know they also pull an excellent espresso? Expect long lines, but deliciousness as an end result.

Get your fix of sandwiches, Single Origin coffee and tea and plenty of fresh baked bread at Sonoma's newest offering at Bondi Beach. Take advantage of their earlier opening hours for a post-surf carb attack.

Nothing gets left to chance at this bustling Bondi café: there's an exact, time-tested formula to the strong, creamy coffees pumped out by owner Rafi Aruch and his crew these past 12 years.
