Making your way to Subi to Swan on Sunday 16 November? Shift gears and refuel with a delightful breakfast in Subiaco. We’ve got an amazing collection of cafes and eateries to satisfy every palate. Join us as we explore some of the top spots to indulge in a post-race breakfast extravaganza.
1982 Food & Coffee
Start your morning off right at 1982 Food & Coffee, where passion for quality ingredients meets creativity in every dish. This cosy café offers a diverse menu featuring classics with a modern twist, from Buttermilk Hotcakes served with pistachio fairy floss to Kimchi Fried Rice with pork katsu or a Cheesy Omelette and Black Sesame. Sip on a perfectly brewed cup of coffee as you unwind and savour the flavours of Subiaco.
Architects and Heroes
For a breakfast experience that’s as visually appealing as it is delicious, look no further than Architects and Heroes. This stylish café combines sleek design with innovative cuisine, showcasing a menu brimming with artisanal delights. Indulge in their signature smashed avocado on toast or treat yourself to a decadent breakfast burger – the perfect fuel for a day of adrenaline-fueled excitement.
Bagel O’s
Who can resist Perth’s cult favourite purveyor of baked goods? Satisfy your cravings with freshly made loaded bagels smothered in cream cheese, with customisable options or fan-favourite flavours such as PB&J, Parm, BLT and Lox. After something sweet? Their glazed donuts, homemade cookies and strawberry matcha lattes are seriously to die for.
Bark
Known as Subiaco’s shrine to Australiana, this small bar and cafe also packs a mean punch when it comes to all-day dining. Grab a classic Aussie toasted sando (that’ll only set you back about $10) with a side of chicken-shaker chips, onion rings, or something more substantial. Pair it with a great coffee in the morning – or a beer if it’s closer to lunchtime, but who are we to police that?
Mimosa
Elevate your breakfast game at Mimosa, a chic café known for its elegant ambiance and impeccable service. From fluffy French toast to indulgent eggs Benedict, their menu is a celebration of sophistication and flavour. Treat yourself to a glass of bubbly or a freshly squeezed juice as you bask in the refined atmosphere of Subiaco’s culinary gem.
Nautical Bowls
Subi’s newest addition is slinging some serious superfood bowls that are perfect for those who prefer a light, healthy, summery start to the day. Plant-based, organic and packed with flavour, try their signature Nauti Bowl (acai, pitaya, peanut butter, crunchy granola, cacao nibs), the tropical Paddle Bowl or a classic acai. You can also build your own bowl for the perfect bespoke breakfast.
Koko Cafe
With its charming courtyard and laid-back vibe, Koko Cafe is the perfect spot to unwind after a thrilling day at Subi to Swan. Their menu features an array of breakfast options, from hearty omelettes to mouthwatering pastries. For specialty coffee lovers, don’t miss their pistachio and coffee crema lattes, or their deliciously sweet strawberry matcha!
Roma Republic
Conveniently located on Hood Street, Roma Republic is slinging some of Subi’s best coffee alongside a cabinet crammed with dietary-friendly homemade treats and delicious breakfast plates. Featuring all the brunch classics plus Instagram-worthy dishes like loaded banana bread and slow-roasted pulled pork tostadas, there’s something for everyone on the menu.
Dome Subiaco
Located in a beautifully renovated building on the corner of Rokeby Rd and Seddon St, Dome Subiaco is the perfect place to enjoy cozy interior comfort or grab some sunshine al fresco with a front row seat to the parade of stunning vintage cars passing by. The refreshed menu combines Dome classics you know and love, with new seasonal flavours. Pop in and rediscover a beloved neighbourhood staple.
