San Churro Hillarys

San Churro at Hillarys is quite the unique spot for a coffee break. I'm a regular around Perth, and this place has a charm all its own. You'll find it on the busy Boardwalk at Sorrento Quay. It's pretty hard to miss with its welcoming vibe and vibrant setting. I often come here to chill with friends or get some work done, and it delivers on both fronts. The highlight for me is their churros. They're crispy on the outside and soft inside, and always served warm. Pair that with their fair-trade coffee, and you've got a winner.

Their menu has a good variety of desserts, which keeps it interesting. I've tried their hot chocolate, and it's as rich and smooth as it gets. Not overly sweet either, which I appreciate. If you're into sweets, their dessert range will not disappoint. The churros are definitely their star, though. They get them just right every time. With several dipping sauces to choose from, there's something for everyone.

San Churro isn't just about the food. The location is perfect for soaking up the Perth sun. There's plenty of outdoor seating, which I prefer when the weather's nice. If you bring your furry friend, there's no problem, since dogs are welcome too. That's a big plus. The vibe is laid-back, and it's rarely too noisy, which makes it a nice spot to hang out for a while. Kids love it here—probably the dessert appeal—and it somehow still doesn't get too chaotic.

Accessibility here is thoughtfully covered. There's a wheelchair-accessible entrance and parking, which is handy for anyone needing it. It's good to know they're making an effort in that area. The toilets are accessible too. Little things like that make a difference. And yes, there's Wi-Fi. It's a lifesaver when I need to send a quick email or lose myself in some reading.

The owners are responsive on their Facebook page, which I find quite useful. There, you'll find the opening hours, which are generally from 9 am to 9 pm most days. They stay open a bit later on Friday and Saturday, till 10 pm. It's a good option for a late-night sweet fix or a relaxing evening with coffee. Whenever you visit, the staff are friendly and efficient. They keep the line moving, even when it's bustling.

Hillarys itself isn't just about churros and coffee. If you're already there, take a stroll around the boardwalk. There are plenty of shops and boutiques to explore. It's a lively area, especially on weekends. You might even spot some dolphins if you're lucky. The beaches nearby are some of Perth's finest. Sorrento Beach is just a stone's throw away if you want to dip your toes in the water. It's family-friendly and perfect for an afternoon outing.

For those who enjoy a bit of maritime action, Hillarys Boat Harbour offers some neat ocean activities. You could even book a fishing trip or just watch the boats come and go. It all adds to the relaxing, seaside atmosphere that makes this area a popular choice. Grab a coffee to-go from San Churro and enjoy the view.

If you're more about shopping, Westfield Whitford City isn't far off. It's pretty convenient if you need to run some errands or just browse. The shopping is diverse enough, covering everything from fashion to electronics. Not necessarily my first choice over the sunny boardwalk cafés, but worth a visit for the variety.

San Churro's accessibility goes beyond the physical sense. The takeaway option works well when I'm in a rush. They offer delivery too, which could be handy on lazy days. But really, there's something special about sitting down, sipping on a quality coffee, and munching on freshly fried churros right there.

Australia can get pretty warm, so it's nice to find a spot that's consistent with both quality and comfort. And it's only about a half-hour drive from Perth's city center, which is pretty manageable for a quick getaway. To me, it's a perfect blend of good food, friendly service, and a scenic location.

In the end, San Churro at Hillarys makes its mark not just with churros but with an inviting, community-focused setting. Whether I'm there for the desserts or just the atmosphere, it's always a pleasant stopover on my adventures around Perth.
