Why Choose Shuk Elizabeth Bay?

Shuk Elizabeth Bay is a relaxed neighbourhood spot known for its Israeli-inspired menu, including house-made bourekas, rugelach, bagels and the standout shakshuka locals travel for.

About Shuk Elizabeth Bay

If you're after breakfast or brunch in Elizabeth Bay, Shuk is a relaxed spot with an Israeli-leaning menu and a neighbourhood feel that's especially nice on a sunny morning. It's part of a Sydney group that runs a bakery side alongside its kitchen, and the baked goods include cheese and spinach bourekas, rugelach and a cinnamon bun. Cheese and spinach bourekas, rugelach and a cinnamon bun all feature, along with a signature bagel.

The shakshuka is the dish people travel for. We've heard of someone coming all the way from Burwood just for it, and locals will tell you the tomato sauce tastes properly authentic. The hummus has its own following, with one regular so taken by it they bought a box with pita to carry home. The bacon and egg roll is another favourite, generously sized and served on good bread, and the wraps (falafel and chicken among them) go down well with people settling in for a few hours of laptop work over coffee.

Service gets plenty of praise. Staff are described as welcoming and genuinely friendly, and QR code ordering keeps things moving when it's busy. It's a great option if you're bringing a pet, though book ahead. Outdoor seating, vegetarian and vegan options and wheelchair-accessible seating and toilets round out the practical side.

To be fair, it's not flawless. One local was let down by a smaller chicken portion than usual, and another felt a breakfast plate was missing a few components. Another found the front-of-house a little slow to greet them on a quieter day. These sound like the odd off visit rather than the general experience.

Shuk does takeaway, delivery, dine-in and catering. It's open early through the week and on weekends, but check the hours before you head in.

Bread

“I really love a brunch spot that has a point of difference and Shuk's Israeli inspired food ticks all the right boxes. Their signature bagel is terrific and my companion's Israeli Breakfast platter was a real feast for the eyes.”
