Best Coffee in Perth: Specialty Cafes and Roasters

Perth has developed a strong specialty coffee culture, particularly in inner suburbs like Leederville, Mount Lawley, Northbridge and the CBD. The city's geographic isolation has if anything sharpened its independent food culture, and several Perth roasters export their beans nationally. Many of the best cafes are connected to small-batch roasters and serve a rotating single-origin menu alongside seasonal espresso. Menus and partnerships change regularly, so checking current offerings before visiting is worthwhile.
