Perth Cafe Location Guide

FOODIES HIT THE ROAD

I recently participated in a Word Of Mouth food tour and must admit I was a little apprehensive at going alone. It was quite a mixed group, with some professional food industry people as well as a group of friends just out for an enjoyable day. But I was surprised at how easily everyone got along, especially when there was food to talk about.

    Our tour guide, Otto Kamenzin, was friendly and organised. He had cold water in the van to drink, storage space for any purchases and even an esky to keep food cold. He also pointed out a lot of interesting places along the way, without being intrusive.

The Swan Valley

A day in the valley is always good. Just recently we visited the Swan Valley's Spring In The Valley festival. It was a great day out. This is what we did...

We started the day at Chesters with some wine and cheese platters.

Then we dropped into Merrich Estate to try some olives.

Next we dropped into Mondo Nougat.

Then we found a new winery called Jarrah Ridge.

While we were at Jarrah Ridge we noticed a mobile coffee van. Something that seems to be popping up all over Perth.

Last of all we dropped in to Iron Bark Brewery to finish the day off.

Sorrento Quay or Hillarys Boat Harbour

"Cafes, Cafes, Cafes." Translated into the language of love "Romance, Romance, Romance."
This is the beautiful Sorrento Quay or Hillarys Boat Harbour.
Filled with cafes and surrounded by water. There is a range of cafes. Some suitable even for the kiddies.
This is a very happening place. Kind of like a small Darling Harbour only sexier.
There's an under water aquarium, water park, shops, pubs, clubs, a pool hall, restaurants and of course cafes. My personal favourite is Portofinos. I have wined and dined many women there in my time.
There is nothing more romantic than lights on water.

South Perth Foreshore

A view from the South Perth foreshore as the sun sets over the city of Perth. A romantic place to wine and dine with a large range of cafes, restaurants and bars to choose from.
A couple of suggestions would be Happy Valley or The Windsor
Cruises up and down the Swan River and to Rottnest Island, depart from the South Perth foreshores Mends street jetty.
A romantic place to take that special someone and maybe ask that special question.
