Perth's Best Cafes: 15 Coffee Spots Worth Your Visit

Perth's cafe scene is one of Australia's most independently confident, the geographic isolation that forced the city to develop its own cultural infrastructure also created a specialty coffee culture that the west coast resources wealth funded at a quality level that has regularly produced national and world barista championship winners.

Proud Mary, Perth, the Perth sister venue of the Melbourne original provides the same house-roasted coffee programme, the direct-trade sourcing, and the quality brunch menu that made the Melbourne original one of Australia's most influential cafes, the rare successful transplant of a city's cafe culture to a different market.

Commonfolk, Fremantle, the Fremantle specialty roaster and cafe is Western Australia's most celebrated coffee operation, with the founding barista's world championship background translating into a coffee programme that draws visitors specifically to Fremantle for the espresso experience. The cafe's stripped-back industrial aesthetic and focus on coffee over food makes it Perth's most specialty-coffee-focused venue.

Typika Artisan Roasters, the multi-site Perth roaster (Claremont, West Perth) has built a loyal following through the consistent single-origin programme, the barista training school, and the quality-over-quantity approach that specialty coffee roasting demands. The Claremont location is the most community-embedded of the sites.

Mary Street Bakery, multiple locations, the multi-site Perth bakery and cafe (Perth CBD, Highgate, Victoria Park) has become the city's most successful cafe expansion story, with the house-baked pastries, the all-day brunch, and the reliable espresso creating the accessible quality that has allowed it to grow without sacrificing the standards the original site established.
