Makuto swaps standard beachside brunch fare for vibrant Venezuelan plates and precision coffee on Hall Street. Ditch the routine bacon and eggs for hot, crispy empanadas and breakfast arepas stuffed with perico, ripe avocado, and grilled cheese. The kitchen laces daytime staples with South American heat, turning out Caribbean chicken curries alongside fresh pineapple juice kicked with chilli. Between pulling dialled-in espresso shots and shaking brunch margaritas, the counter team keeps the room humming to laid-back tunes. Solo laptop workers get routed to a shared communal table, protecting the dining spread for leisurely tables sharing plates of warm corn cakes and iced chai.

- Spiced Sips & Coffee: Precision espresso, house loose-leaf chai, and fresh pineapple juice spiked with chilli round out daytime drinks alongside cocktails.

Why Choose Makuto for Your Bondi Brunch
Discover how authentic Venezuelan flavors, masterfully crafted coffee, and relaxed hospitality set Makuto apart in Bondi.
Authentic Venezuelan Arepas & Dishes
Authentic South American fare including Perico arepas with avocado and grilled cheese offers a flavorful departure from standard cafe breakfast items.
If you’re after a breakfast that’s more than the usual bacon and eggs, try their unique South American take on almost everything on their menu. I love the Perico breakfast arepa myself with both avocado and grilled cheese.
