I am a pure and utter carnivore so it took some goading to come in here. But I needent have worried. The food was pretty good especially considering its only rabbit food. I had the breakfast burrito which was pretty good and the coffee was fantastic. The smoothies are *brilliant* and the wait staff don't lay on the hippy speak too much so I was pretty content. The place is pretty comfortable, the atmosphere is laid back and happy. They have yoga classes and a shop out the side.

Approximate cost: $25

It can get very busy so you'll have to wait outside for a takeaway, but the coffee is excellent and the muffins are tasty. Definately worth a visit.

This used to be a great place to go for an ice chocolate back when I was a kid but man, has it gone downhill. Ordered the usual, got an exasperated look from the staff member, then waited 20 minutes to get the ice chocolate all while waiting at a dirty table that I eventually had to ask to be cleared. Not impressed by this Freo institution.

Can sometimes take a little bit of time to get the coffee out, and the place can get very busy (and stifling) but overall excellent coffees, muffins and people. Its also a bar and a sop and has a large function centre that can be booked upstairs. Really like this place!

excellent coffee in a wonderful location. The guy Barista is the bomb, so make sure you get him to make your coffees. It did take a little longer to deliver than most, but certainly not unreasonable. People were friendly and all in all a great experience.

Hidden away in a cool little laneway, this place is simple with great coffee. Perfect for hipsters. The staff seem a little less organised than other Perth coffeeshops so its definitely not a place to get your morning rush-to-work brew. The toasties are pretty tasty, but given the simplicity you would think they would be cheaper.

Approximate cost: $8

Favourite coffeeplace in Perth. The coffee is good, every time and with different baristas. They are quick to produce it and they are always happy to serve you, no passive aggressive behaviour at all! They also have an app (which I haven't used) which means you can order your coffee in advance. Nice to see a little innovation

I wouldn't call this fine dining, but it was a restaurant. I had a lamb burger here for $15 and was very impressed. The service and atmosphere are great. They also offer a discount to people who work in the Oracle building.

Recently attended the theatre here. The seats were fantastic, the service was quick and parking was plentiful. It is THE place to go for independent cinema on the coast!

There are a few bits and pieces which are pretty cool, but for the most part its one to miss. Its small, hard to negotiate around without smashing something and the stuff is pretty overpriced.
