Little Sup Cafe

Little Sup Cafe sits in a sweet spot in Cottesloe, a stone's throw from the beach. I'm a sucker for places where you can grab your coffee, then wander down to the water. Opens nice and early at 6 am, perfect for folks who like to start the day with a fresh breeze and caffeine. Cottesloe Beach is a solid ten-minute stroll from here, and trust me, it's worth it, especially when the morning sun is just right.

Walking in, you get a laid-back vibe that feels just right. The place isn't huge, but it doesn't need to be. Outdoor seating means you can soak up some sun while you sip away. Inside, you've got a cozy setup with an accessible car park, which makes visiting a breeze with easy parking. The interior isn't trying to hard with decor, and that feels refreshing. No pretentious vibes here, just a simple space that lets the good coffee do the talking.

Now, about the coffee. It's spot on, and that's all you really need. The baristas here know their craft, and it shows. A flat white in the morning is how I like to start. It's creamy and smooth, and the aroma wakes you up before the coffee even hits your lips. I've tried their espresso too. It's bold but not overpowering, just right for cutting through any morning fog in your brain. Prices are fair, which is always a win in a beachside spot.

While you're here, their brunch menu is simple but tasty. Nothing too fancy, but it hits the spot every time. I dig their smashed avo on toast. The bread is fresh, and the avo is the real deal, not that pre-mashed stuff. If you're feeling more like a sweet breakfast, you can't go wrong with their banana bread. It's moist and hearty, perfect for a quick munch before heading out. It's a straightforward, under-the-radar brunch setup that does exactly what you need.

Service is another plus. Staff seem genuinely happy to be there, which is infectious. Whether you're grabbing a quick takeaway or in it for a leisurely dine-in, the team is always up for a chat. They've never messed up my order, and that earns them huge points in my book. It's the little things, like remembering a name or coffee order, that keep me coming back.

A cool thing about Little Sup is that it's dog-friendly. Bring your furry mate along, and flop down outside for people watching on quiet Cottesloe mornings. Just across from the cafe, on Eric Street, there's a nice little park where you can let the dog stretch its legs a bit. Combine that with a takeaway cup of coffee, and you're set for a chilled out time.

If you feel like exploring, there are a few shops nearby worth poking your head into. Cottesloe is famous for its artsy vibe. On Station Street, not far off, you'll find some quirky local stores and pieces from Aussie artists. Plenty to scope out if you're in a wandering mood. And if your belly demands more than just coffee and brunch, there are eateries around with food from every corner of the globe. Whether you fancy Japanese, Thai, or just classic fish and chips, this area caters to all tastes.

Meeting friends? Little Sup offers convenience with delivery options, so you can have a brunch at home if you want. It works for those lazy days when stepping out feels too ambitious. But seriously, make the effort to stop by and sip a latte outside if you can. The atmosphere just lifts your mood, coffee or no coffee.

Watching Cottesloe go by from Little Sup is a perfect way to slow down and enjoy the little things. Life here isn't rushed, and that's what makes the morning standstill beautiful. You can almost hear the community breathing easy.

With high ratings and over a hundred reviews backing them up, this place isn't just a coffee shop; it's part of what makes mornings in Perth special, especially near the coast. So, if you find yourself in Cottesloe with a hankering for coffee, don't think twice. Head over, grab a seat, and just chill with a cup in hand.
