Best place to catch up with a friend: Gertrude and Alice
Sit yourselves in a nook at the back of Gertrude & Alice, the gorgeous bookshop and café by Bondi Beach. Let the onshore breeze, the iconic location and the scent of second-hand books provide the perfect setting for your reunion, while you stimulate your conversation with a strong Campos coffee and a corn-fritter stack.
