Review #199 – ☕️ Beth’s Bakery☕️
📍EAST VIC PARK📍 ─── Vibes 🍃 10/10 – We were awestruck walking up to Beth’s. This bakery/café hybrid is located in a beautiful old maternity hospital that overlooks a gorgeous park in East Victoria Park. The interior is gorgeous, filled with soft lighting and an old dining room style decor. The outside verandah was packed and certainly looked like the place to be. We are certainly fans of the vibes at Beth’s. Taste 👅 7.1/10 – Today we tried the house single origin, a natu

Review #198 – ☕️ Hear This☕️
📍MORLEY📍 ─── Vibes 🍃 8.5/10 – This week we ventured out to Hear This in Morley. This spot feels like a Turkish coffee house - very cool. Lots of blue, and a big communal table in the middle makes for a welcoming vibe. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly, and it’s certainly an enjoyable place to be. Taste 👅 7.5/10 – We were sipping on the House blend by Good People Nice Things. Our friend and coffee expert Dan nailed the tasting notes, experiencing dark chocolate, nut

Review #197 – ☕️ Willing Coffee☕️
📍MOUNT LAWLEY📍 ─── Vibes 🍃 9.8/10 – One of the best vibes for a spot we've checked out in a while. Willing oozes a luxurious vibe, with wooden and royal red accents all through the coffee bar. The filter bar is mint, and the filter menu is even cooler. It is certainly a place to check out and post all over your socials, they have nailed the design here. Taste 👅 8.2/10 – Willing serve a Micrology custom blend for their house coffees, featuring a washed Colombian bean. We e

Review #196 – ☕️ Daisies☕️
📍COTTESLOE📍 ─── Vibes 🍃 8.3/10 – The vibe at Daisies is unquestionably cool. Famous as a post beach location, even on a cold and wet morning the place was packed. We can certainly see the appeal, in the summer this would be an incredible place to enjoy a brew or two. Taste 👅 6.3/10 – Daisies run a blend from Melbourne based Dukes Coffee Roasters. These brews tasted good, but lacked some character, we got some chocolate and caramel notes, but not a whole lot else, it was a

Review #195 – ☕️ Daily Practice ☕️
📍APPLECROSS📍 ─── Vibes 🍃 8.7/10 – We might have been the only people at Daily Practice who weren't at pilates today (apparently we are all too fit to do it, will just stick to golf). In all seriousness, Daily Practice is a busy and trendy spot on Canning Highway, and we can see why. The vibes were vibing, good music wqas playing and it was all taking place inside a cool venue that doubles as a retail space - oh, and the truffle chicken toasty has truffle in it, to the surp

Review #194 – ☕️ Sonder Coffee ☕️
📍VICTORIA PARK📍 ─── Vibes 🍃 8.5/10 – Sonder means the realisation that everybody else has a life as profound as your own, and what better place to ponder this thought than out on the deck overlooking all that Vic Park has to offer. Between the car yards and cute little park, Sonder certainly brings the vibes. The tunes were pumping, bagels were toasting and the staff were even friendly enough to point out a Bloke's slight wardrobe mishap (let us know if you see it in the c

Review #193 – ☕️ Phyl and Tom ☕️
📍MOSMAN PARK📍 ─── Vibes 🍃 8.2/10 – Doggo, Doggo, Doggo, Doggo, Doggo, Doggo - number of dogs we saw this morning. These furry friends know how to sniff out good vibes, plenty of lovely undercover seating with good food and friendly staff. Taste 👅 7.0/10 – Little Owl’s signature blend gave us bites of caramel, chocolate and nuts. While it didn’t do anything wrong, it lacked a bit of character. Definitely a classic crowd pleaser. Temp 🌡 6.7/10 – Scorchers today - pretty wa

Review #192 – ☕️ Fa Cafe ☕️
📍WEMBLEY📍 ─── Vibes 🍃 7.2/10 – Right on Granthem Street where Mellow Coffee used to call home. Certainly a busy place and absolutely packed. Food was kinda elite (see video), wouldn’t have minded a bit of a cooler interior for coffee drinking season. Taste 👅 8.2/10 – Pleasantly surprised by what this Blacklist Opus blend offered us today. Beautiful silky texture with a medium body (much like my first girlfriend). Flavour wise; tasted like dried fruits, i’m talking sultana

Review #191 – ☕️ Little Laika ☕️
📍KARRINYUP📍 ─── Vibes 🍃 8.1/10 – Directly adjacent to, and in direct competition with sweet treat merchant Yochi - Little Laika occupied its own territory to sling some great brews. The blokes were supported by heaps of seating options, all with cushions, some with basketball hoops... Taste 👅 8.0/10 – The Blokes were met with Apollo in the hopper. The Perth based roaster had a great taste profile going for them, we agreed on caramel, nutty undertones and blackcurrant. Uni

Review #190 – ☕️ Queen of Leeds☕️
📍LEEDERVILLE📍 ─── Vibes 🍃 8.1/10 – We thoroughly enjoyed the cozy vibes of Queen of Leeds. Nestled proudly on Oxford Street, this busy Leederville institution is warm, welcoming and the staff are enthusiastic and attentive. Taste 👅 6.0/10 – QoL pedals Proud Mary beans through the hoppers, and while we enjoyed sipping on it, we had a mixed experience with it. Three of the brews tasted pretty good - chocolatey, caramelly and featuring some nice acid, but one brew didn’t qui

Review #189 – ☕️ Stereo Stereo☕️
📍MORLEY📍 ─── Vibes 🍃 9.2/10 – Stereo Stereo feels like a combination of a record bar and a diner. The vibes are super high here, with a sick interior, tunes pumping and a queue out the door of this new Morley establishment. Taste 👅 7.5/10 – We were once again treated to Twin Peaks’ ‘Profiler’ blend. We tasted dark chocolate, caramel and a stonefruit acidity. While it was enjoyable to drink, we weren’t quite blown away. Temp 🌡 8.0/10 – The brews were a tad toasty for our

Review #188 – ☕️ JUNI Cafe☕️
📍MAYLANDS📍 ─── Vibes 🍃 8.1/10 – Juni is nestled in a cozy residential part of Maylands, and is clearly popular with the locals. They boast a delicious range of bagels, scrolls and toasties and the staff are welcoming - what more could you want? Taste 👅 8.1/10 – Juni’s custom blend from 5 Senses is a treat. This mix of Brazilian, Papa New Guinean and Indonesian beans has a really nice, punchy character. Notes of red currant, chocolate and fresh pine needle were quite enjoy

Review #187 – ☕️ Holmes Coffee☕️
📍SHENTON PARK📍 ─── Vibes 🍃 8.7/10 – A recent addition to Shenton Park, Holmes has a bit of an industrial vibe, with some classy wooden accents. Groovy tunes fuel some sweet vibes here. The staff are very friendly and know their stuff, which is always a nice bonus. Taste 👅 8.6/10 – We tucked into Holmes’ custom blend from Micrology this morning, and we were pretty darn happy with it. It was well extracted and balanced, with a nice hit of chocolate, cookie dough and a

Review #186 – ☕️ Voodoo Priestess☕️
📍KARRINYUP📍 ─── Vibes 🍃 7.8/10 – Priestess has a very cool vibe, especially for a shopping centre location. It feels grand inside with lots of royal blue and golden tones, and the place was certainly bustling. A great spot to sit down after (or instead of) doing the shopping at Karrinyup. Taste 👅 6.3/10 – We tried a custom blend from Northbridge Coffee Roasters, which certainly falls towards the crowd pleaser side of the spectrum. Think dark chocolate, nuts, and perhaps a

Review #185 – ☕️ Two Minds Coffee☕️
📍APPLECROSS ─── Vibes 🍃 9.0/10 – Nestled on the ground floor of a new development apartment complex was Two Minds Coffee. This morning it was absolutely bustling, get in early if you're keen on a good seat. Taste 👅 8.7/10 – In the hopper was their own custom blend from Five Senses Coffee, a real light and silky front of mouth taste. With not much information available, the blokes found notes of nougat, creme brulee and even cheesecake as it cooled - what a treat. Temp 🌡 8

Review #184 – ☕️ Cheol’s ☕️
📍MOUNT LAWLEY📍 _ Vibes 🍃 8.8/10 – Originally named Viaje, the blokes caught wind of a rebrand and felt obligated to see what was up. We were met to a very similar external facade, however an entire new internal outfit. Heaps of seating options as well as a great food operation in motion. Ticks here from the blokes. Taste 👅 8.7/10 – The blokes were met by Veneziano Coffee Roaster's 'Elevate' blend in the hopper this morning. As we got sipping, the blokes tasted some really

Review #183 – ☕️ Bishop St. Cafe ☕️
📍JOLIMONT📍 _ Vibes 🍃 8.3/10 – Right in the heart of Jolimont, this cafe had a good feel to it. Lovely interior with very friendly workers, and even drive thru coffee which u don’t see too often. Huge for the program. Taste 👅 6.5/10 – Decent little drop this morning. Dimmatina Blend was very dark chocolate intense which the blokes did not mind at all. Was very light on in character and almost tasted like a latte, so definitely a crowd pleaser. Temp 🌡 8.4/10 – Just a chill

Review #182 – ☕️ Academy Cafe ☕️
📍CLAREMONT📍 _ Vibes 🍃 7.5/10 – Nestled off to the side of the Claremont Quarter shops, Academy Cafe well exceeded expectations of the quintessential shopping centre coffee experience. Adequate seating paired with great food led to some pretty cool brews this morning. Taste 👅 8.0/10 – The 'Calibre' blend by Darkstar Coffee Roasters was in the hopper. Absolutely no qualms with the bean of choice; it was well extracted and tasted great. We were just missing a final tasting n

Review #181 – ☕️ Wild Bakery ☕️
📍INGLEWOOD📍 ___ Vibes 🍃 8.3/10 – Pretty darn cool place, huge bakery with large windows to watch the baking take place, not heaps of seating and a great place to take someone if you want to make them feel small (put them on a crate). Taste 👅 6.0/10 – ‘Gesha Coffee Co.’ on the roaster (slight misnomer) Where did the coffee go? Perhaps only 1 shot snuck its way in there, but no taste is better than a bad taste I suppose. Temp 🌡 8.5/10 – Back to that 60 degrees the bl

Review #180 – ☕️ Earl’s ☕️
📍MOUNT HAWTHORN📍 _ Vibes 🍃 8.7/10 - What a place for a morning feed, the blokes were subject to a plethora of food options to enjoy inside of a great lil venue, popcorn walls trimmed with coffee brown lining everywhere. What a mood setter. Taste 👅 6.0/10 – Courtesy of Perth roaster Singlular, it certainly didn't blow our socks off and hard to taste through the heat... caramel, choc, cinnamon; usual suspects. Temp 🌡 6.3/10 - Hot hot hot! The blokes much rather a slightly
