Perth Coffee Exchange

Perth Coffee Exchange is a gem in Booragoon. It has a vibe that's laid-back yet energizing. The first thing you notice is the aroma of freshly ground beans. It's heady and pulls you in before you even enter. I usually visit during the week since they're closed on Sundays. I like the range in their hours, especially the shorter gap on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons.

A five-star average rating from nearly 90 reviews isn't for nothing. Each cup is crafted with care and skill. It's evident they know what they are doing. Their menu isn't crowded. Each item has its moment. My go-to is a flat white that feels like a warm hug. I usually grab a pastry too, which pairs well with the coffee's rich flavor. The almond croissants are a personal favorite. Crunchy outside and soft inside.

The atmosphere here is brighter and airy, with plenty of natural light. Seating is cozy, not cramped. There's enough space to work on a laptop or chat with friends. The staff is welcoming. They make you feel like an old friend, even on your first visit. I appreciate the good number of parking spaces, which are wheelchair accessible too.

They offer takeaway, which is handy during those busy days. You can order ahead for pick-up if you're rushing between commitments. If the weather is nice, there's a little area outside where dogs are welcome. So, a furry companion doesn't mean skipping your coffee run.

Nestled in Booragoon, this area isn't just about coffee. Across the way is Westfield Booragoon, where you can shop to your heart's content. It's got everything from high-end stores to casual outlets and a cinema too. Hendy Road Park is not far off either, perfect for a stroll afterward, should you need to stretch your legs. If you've got an afternoon to kill, a visit here makes for a relaxed time.

The coffee shop is more than just caffeine. They offer on-site services for coffee-devotees. An added reason to strike up a chat with the barista. They're filled with knowledge about beans, brew methods, and what's trending in the coffee world. For delivery, you might need to pop over to their website. I haven't tried it, but having this option is great for when friends drop by unannounced.

I love a good indie coffee spot. Perth Coffee Exchange checks all my boxes. It's the kind of place that attracts regulars, and for good reason. If you're in Booragoon, it's worth stopping by. Whether you're grabbing a quick pick-me-up or setting up a mobile office for the day, it fits the bill perfectly.

There's always a reason to visit this pocket of Perth. Whether it's the scenic strolls in the neighborhood parks, exploring Westfield Booragoon, or just soaking up the vibe of the local area – the coffee serves as a delightful anchor. Fences in some fantastic community vibes.

I spend about an hour usually, sipping my coffee and people-watching. Families, professionals, students, and travelers seem to love it equally. It's kid-friendly too. You could even grab a gift from here, with some local artists' crafts on display.

Booragoon, while not bustling like the city center, has its unique pulse. Close enough for city-centric folks, yet with the calm of the suburbs. It balances both worlds really well. If you have time on a weekday, try spending an early afternoon here. Perth Coffee Exchange offers moments of calm before diving back into busyness.

This little nook doesn't aim for extravagant tastes or over-the-top options. It's simple, welcoming, and consistently good. That makes it a keeper in my books. Exploring coffee culture around Perth is a joy, and places like this highlight why it's worth the journey. You'll leave satisfied, perhaps planning your next return even before you reach your car.
