Gertrude & Alice

My favourite book shop in Bondi...
If you're feeling the need for a soul warmer than this comfortable second hand book store is you're perfect choice. They have all types of books from old poetry, philosophy, fiction & non-fiction and my absolute favourite the cooking section... Many hours have been lost immersed in book looking in this overcrowded but cosy book store.

A warm drink of coffee, tea, chai or chocolate is a must, perhaps try this little hot spot alone as you're company may become slightly bored of your constant wandering eye (over the books that is!).
Wholesome and hearty meals are divinely dishy; vegetarian Mexican burritos are Moorish laden with buttery guac and creamy sour cream, vegetable soups for the spirit and sweets galore adorn the glass cabinet. For the early bird the breakfast crumble is oh so sweet.

I cannot remember a day I have visited this delightful little spot without a new book in hand.

You can find Gertrude and Alice on Hall St. Bondi :-)
