About Bennett St Dairy

Perched along Bondi Road away from beach crowds, this neighborhood nook pairs serious morning espresso with Sydney’s gooiest monster cookies. Regulars pile in for hefty morning staples—think crisp rösti with smashed avocado, or double-bacon brioche rolls smeared with house onion relish. Come evening, the tight room softens into a candlelit wine bar pouring chilled Somos Garnacha alongside heirloom tomatoes with burrata.

  • Monster cookies: Massive, freshly baked chocolate chip and white chocolate macadamia cookies served warm with molten centers, alongside take-home rolls.
  • Hearty brunch plates: Generous morning fare spanning golden rösti with avocado to stacked double-bacon rolls on buttery brioche.
  • Evening wine bar shift: Sundown brings low lighting, curated boutique wines by the glass, and share plates like burrata and charcuterie.

  • Cozy Neighborhood Setting Off the Busy Strip

    Compact indoor and outdoor seating provides an easy, comfortable retreat along Bondi Road away from crowded beach tourism.

    It is a smaller restaurant so our group of five was a bit cozy inside but the staff were very kind to accommodate us.
