Alice and Gertrude, a charming bookstore cafe in Bondi, offers a unique concept of combining a coffee shop with a library. While some customers appreciate the cozy ambience and vast book collection, others have criticized the owner for being unwelcoming and displaying passive-aggressive signs about overstaying. The lack of wifi adds to the old-school charm of the place, although seating can be limited. Despite mixed reviews on the quality of coffee, many visitors enjoy the opportunity to unwind with a book and a warm drink in this quaint cafe. Overall, Alice and Gertrude seems to be a hidden gem for book lovers seeking a peaceful retreat in the midst of a bustling tourist area, Gertrude and Alice usually has an average rating of 4.3.
