sonido!, fitzroy

You know the place - you can’t miss it. The amazing aromas and the bright-coloured umbrellas! We love Sondo! in Fitzroy. The Latin American favourite is a haven for locals and a destination of its own!

This colourful sanctuary is the perfect spot for breakfast or lunch.

The menu has simple Colombian and South American cuisine with arepas a must to try. What is an arepa? Well, an arepa is like pita bread crossed with a tortilla and filled with meats and salads. It is the street food of South America and Mamma LOVES them!

There are also delicious rice bowls, yummy breakfast options and amazing sweets.

For the little ones, there’s the small Arepa with grilled cheese or the beef and potato empanada is a good option.

Mamma’s little one never goes past the regular chicken, avocado and tomato arepa and even though it has a little spice - it is always the pick of the bunch.

Sonido does great takeaway too which is always handy on those busy nights when Mamma doesn't feel like cooking plus they also have a sister cafe, Arepa Days in Preston, with a similar menu…you will most definitely find Mamma at one or the other!
