Salumerie Bondi

Overview

When Donato Salomone opened Salumerie in Potts Point in 2024, his mission was straightforward: bring the energy and flavours of the delis in his native Naples to Sydney. Two years on — and with additional outposts in the CBD and Manly under his belt — Salomone has unveiled his fourth Salumerie in Bondi, bringing his pillowy house-made focaccias and sliced-to-order deli meats to Hall Street lifestyle precinct The Hub.

Rather than a carbon copy of its siblings, Salumerie Bondi leans into crowd favourites while also offering a few exclusives. Expect signatures like mortadella with buffalo ricotta and pistachio pesto; seasonal combinations such as peach with stracciatella and hot honey; and an unapologetically saucy, Bondi-only vodka lasagne sandwich.

As always, you can build your own focaccia from the deli selection, piled high with antipasti, fresh salumi and cheeses. There's also house-made lasagne and tiramisu on rotation — you can also try the tiramisu with the $2 espresso al banco, another Bondi exclusive served with a generous spoonful of the dessert.

While daytime is devoted to the focaccias and deli staples, things take a turn from 4pm. Wednesdays bring lasagne and wine nights, while Thursdays to Sundays see the laneway shift to aperitivo mode, with DJs, antipasti and spritzes setting the tone.
