Sonoma Bakery in Rose Bay is a beloved local bakery renowned for its sourdough bread, baked fresh daily, along with a wide selection of sweet and savory pastries.

This is a spacious, accessible venue where everyone is welcome. The entry is flat, so there should be no accessibility issues getting inside. As I write this, a family with a pram is at the entrance.

The bakery is quite large, so you’ll feel comfortable moving around with your device right up to the counter as you decide which pastry, bread, or hot drink to get.

Inside, seating is arranged in a circular layout around the walls, leaving plenty of space in the middle. Alternatively, you can order at the counter and head outside, where the friendly staff will bring your order to your table.

There are no designated accessible toilets, but the ladies toilet is adapted for people with reduced mobility. The door manually opens inward, and the lock is also manual. The ladies’ restroom is spacious, allowing enough room for devices to manoeuvre and access the left-hand rails by the toilet. The men’s restroom, however, has no rails and has limited space.

Sushi Train in Rose Bay is a local favorite, blending traditional Japanese flavors with a fun, modern twist! The conveyor belt sushi setup brings a bit of Japanese dining culture right to you, with fresh and colourful sushi plates rotating past for you to grab and enjoy.

Located on the main street, Sushi Train is close to local shops and super easy to get to with paths and ramps for a smooth arrival. The entrance is level with the sidewalk, making it easy for everyone to enter. If you’re craving a personalized sushi experience, just ask the friendly staff to set up a table on the left side to make your meal even more comfortable.

Takeaway orders are available as soon as you enter—just place your order at the front desk. While the main dining area has a step up to access the conveyor belt seating, the staff is happy to bring your favorite sushi to the front seating area if you prefer, so everyone can enjoy the meal their way!

Unfortunately the toilets are located at the end of the sushi belt hallway, meaning that unless you can manage the step, toilets are not accessible.
