5 Points Kitchen

5 Points Kitchen in Greenwood feels like a hidden gem. It sits on Coolibah Drive, a spot with easy access to the surrounding neighborhood. The place hums with a welcoming vibe, something often missing in larger, more fast-paced coffee shops. As someone who frequents coffee spots around Perth, I love the cozy nooks here. It's just across from Kalari Park, which is a nice spot to enjoy your takeout coffee if you want some fresh air.

This place opens its doors to morning early birds at 6:30 am, which works perfectly for those who need their caffeine fix early. It shuts by 2:30 pm, so popping in for breakfast or brunch makes the most sense. It's closed on Mondays, which can catch you off guard the first time. But Tuesday to Sunday, they're open and the service is reliably friendly.

Parking is a breeze here. There's a decent-sized, wheelchair-accessible car park. The folks here have thought of ease of access which is a plus. Once inside, the open space and seating options are hard to miss. Outdoor seating is my pick, especially with Perth's great weather. There's usually a breeze and plenty of light, so you feel relaxed while sipping on your coffee.

Speaking of coffee, it's solid. The baristas know what they're doing. Whether you like a classic flat white or need a double-shot espresso to kickstart your day, they'll serve it with care. I've met folks with a penchant for cappuccinos who swear by this place. There's also a decent selection of teas for anyone not into coffee, which is nice for a change.

Now, the food. This place shines in the brunch department. The menu is varied enough without being overwhelming. You wouldn't go wrong ordering the classic avocado toast or their popular poached eggs. If you're feeling particularly hungry, the full breakfast is a go-to. Portions are generous, and everything is well-cooked. Their baked goods are worth a try too. The muffins, in particular, make a perfect snack to pair with your coffee.

What I really like is that they welcome dogs. There aren't too many places around here that allow that, so it's a win for dog owners looking for a place to linger. You can sit outside with your furry friend and enjoy the relaxed setting together.

Inside, seating arrangements are practical yet comfy. They have some wheelchair-accessible tables which makes it spacious and easy to navigate for everyone. The tables and chairs, while simple, do their job without cluttering the room.

For those in a rush, they offer both delivery and takeaway options. The takeaway is prompt, and they pack everything neatly so you don't end up with a mess. It's fitting for quick coffee runs when you're out and about. Grabbing a cup on the go before hitting the road for work is no hassle.

Their website might not win design awards, but it serves its purpose. You can check the menu online, look up hours, or call them easily with a listed phone number. The social media presence isn't massive, but they're pretty responsive and occasionally post about special brunch dishes.

Greenwood itself is a suburb that's quietly blossomed over the years. 5 Points Kitchen fits right in as a great spot for locals to gather. Nearby, Warwick Grove Shopping Centre offers more shops and cafes, which can be handy if you're in a shopping mood. The area is calm with a touch of bustle from the nearby shopping centers and local activities. Not to forget, there's a library in close proximity if you feel like diving into a book post-brunch.

Overall, this spot wins on the community feel and good grub, so it sees a good mix of regulars and first-timers alike. It may not be the largest or most expansive café, but it doesn't need to be. It's a great little pocket of solace—a significant draw for those who just want to savor their day one coffee at a time.
