I’m always on the lookout for healthy, whole food options when out and about. Whether it’s to meet with a friend, enjoy a celebratory dinner, or just to savour a cup of coffee in the morning, Sydney is home to some truly spectacular gems. From old favourites to new and exciting cafes, I’ve put together a list of my top go-to food spots here in Sydney. If you’re a local or just visiting, be sure to add these delicious options to your eating out arsenal.
Healthy cafes:
Bondi’s Best – My favourite! The best place to get a piece of grilled fish, salad and the best roasted carrots you will ever taste. I love their seaweed salad! They also make yummy sweet potato chips for a treat. The photo above is one of my recent feasts!
LUXE in Woolhara – Ottolenghi style food. I love their miso eggplant, fennel slaw, cauliflower salad and poached chicken. An incredible staff, too – knowledgeable and friendly!
Lox Stock and Barrel – My favorite dish is a delicious pumpkin, kale and quinoa salad with extra chicken.
Earth to Table– Raw vegan style foods. Incredible raw treats. I love their raw banana bread for breaky- such a treat!
Bondi Wholefoods – I always choose their quinoa porridge and scrambled eggs.
Raw Bar – I adore the raw bar salad (seaweed, avo, carrot, cucumber, etc.) with tuna tataki. I also love their salmon teriyaki and miso eggplant.
Bondi Health Emporium – Great juices, smoothies, raw treats and a fabulous health store in general.
O – Café in Surry Hills – LOVE their brown fried rice with vegetables and egg. It is the house special.
Malibu Surry Hills- A secret little hole in the wall. Huge, amazing salads that they make up on the spot. I usually get a big salad with poached chicken.
The Café in Paddington – Fresh and healthy salads! Love.
Henley’s Wholefoods– A new and fabulous café in Bondi Junction. They change up the menu every week. It always has an amazing selection of salads and healthy proteins on the side. Great spot!

THE GROUNDS In Alexandria- love their chicken salad and eggplant salad.
Bread and Circus– delicious salad plates and protein sides!
Porch and Parlour– LOVE their green breaky bowl- kale, quinoa, avocado and parsley rolled boiled eggs! Gorgeous spot.
My fav coffee:
Il Dolce dell’Amore “Roco” in Vaucluse – The best coffee in Sydney run by Roco, dear friend to us all. Be prepared to wait for a few minutes because it is THAT popular and that good! It is worth the wait!
La Piadina Bondi – AMAZING coffee in Sydney. You feel like you have spent your mornig in Italy. Creamy and rich coffee – just how I like it.
