Slice Of Italy

I checked out Slice of Italy up in Joondalup. It's a neat spot, especially if you're around the university area. You might think of it as just a pizzeria, but they do coffee too. Perfect if you're jumping between lectures or just passing through.

The look of the place is pretty old-school. It feels like they took a slice of Italy and plopped it here. The vibe is chill, which is great if you're hanging out alone or with friends. It's not just about the food or coffee; it's the whole setting. The staff know what they're doing, and they always seem to keep the place running smoothly.

So, the coffee. It's solid. Not too fancy, but it gets the job done. Nice and reliable, just what you need to start your day or get through a study session. There's something comforting about a good, no-nonsense cup of coffee, and Slice of Italy gets that right.

While you're at it, the pizza is something you shouldn't ignore. It's one of those pizzas where each bite tastes like they made it for you. Not too greasy, with a good mix of toppings and crust. They serve it up fresh, and you can smell it while it's still a few tables away.

Their hours are kind of niche—7 am to 2 pm, Monday through Friday. So, don't plan a coffee run on the weekend. It's all about catching those weekdays, perfect if you're in the area for work or study.

Accessibility seems to be on their radar. They have a wheelchair-accessible car park, entrance, and seating. It's important and sometimes overlooked by other places. The outdoor seating is a bonus when you want to enjoy a sunny Perth day with your coffee.

And hey, if you're cruising with a furry friend, Slice of Italy is dog-friendly. That gets a thumbs up from a lot of folks around here. Nothing like sipping a brew with your pup enjoying some fresh air beside you.

If you're thinking of takeaway, they've got you covered. But I'd recommend hanging out if you can. The dine-in atmosphere gives you a bit of a break from the hustle. It's more personal when you can sit back and relax, feeling connected to the space.

The Joondalup area has some good stuff around too. Next door, you've got the university, which means plenty of young folks buzzing about. It keeps the area lively, and there's a kind of energy you can feed off. If you want to stretch your legs, the Joondalup Shopping Centre isn't too far away. It's got a bunch of shops for the retail-minded folk or just anyone looking to poke around.

The HBF Arena is also nearby. If sports or events are more your style, you might find something interesting going on there. It's a local spot that hosts a range of activities, so planning a day in Joondalup can easily fill up with various things to do.

Parks are around too if you're just in the mood for a stroll. Yellagonga Regional Park offers space to clear your mind or stretch after sitting in coffee shops. It's a bit of nature amidst the urban sprawl and gives a good contrast to indoor spaces.

Even if you're not hitting these spots, Slice of Italy on its own makes for a nice visit. It's like one of those hidden gems that might not scream from the rooftops but has a firm following from those who've been. Sometimes consistency and friendliness go a long way, and this little coffee and pizza spot seems to get that.

Slice of Italy is a nice nook in Joondalup that's laid-back and satisfying. If you're ever up this way, it's worth sticking your head in. Drink some coffee, try some pizza, and take it slow. They seem to run the place with the intent of making sure you leave a little happier and a lot less rushed.

Keep in mind the place isn't open on weekends. That might be a letdown if you were thinking of dropping by then. But perhaps that's part of their charm—it feels a bit exclusive, a treat before the day gets too much.

If you find yourself wandering around Joondalup during the week, drop by Slice of Italy. You've got coffee and pizza to enjoy and a relaxed vibe to soak in. Grab a seat, adjust to the slower pace, and let the world outside take a breather for a while.
