La Tazza Cafe & Catering

I've been hitting up coffee spots around Perth for years, and I found a pretty neat one in Midland called La Tazza Cafe & Catering. This spot's tucked inside Centrepoint Shopping Centre, which makes it convenient if you're in the area doing some shopping. They've got those prime hours. You can swing by from 8 am to 3:30 pm on weekdays, which is great for grabbing a coffee before work or for a mid-day break. They open on Saturdays too, though they call it a day earlier, closing up at 2 pm.

La Tazza boasts solid reviews, holding an average rating of 4.1 across 49 reviews. It's decent enough to give it a try, especially if you're around the Midland area. The vibe here feels laid back. When you walk in, it's not overly crowded, and the space is accessible too. They're really on top of accessibility with a wheelchair-friendly car park, entrance, seating, and even a toilet. If you've got mobility needs, this place has you covered.

Got a dog? Bring them along! Dogs are allowed here, which is always a win in my book. It's nice to have the option to grab a coffee and brunch with your furry friend. Speaking of brunch, if you're on the hunt for a spot to grab a light meal and sip some freshly brewed coffee, La Tazza has you covered. Their menu is pretty straightforward, with options for both dine-in and takeaway. Plus, they do delivery if you're looking to enjoy their offerings at home or at the office.

Now, Midland itself has quite a bit to offer if you're planning on making a day out of your visit. Not too far from La Tazza, you've got the Midland Gate Shopping Centre. It's one of the bigger malls in the area, so if you're in the mood for some retail therapy, that's your go-to spot. You can find everything from fashion to electronics there. Stroll around, maybe grab something from the shops, and then head over to La Tazza to unwind.

If you like a bit of nature, the nearby Coal Dam Park is a neat spot to stretch your legs. Perfect for a little walk after enjoying your coffee. The park isn't massive, but it's got enough charm to warrant a quick visit. The dam in the center adds a bit of character to the place, making it pretty unique as far as parks go.

For those with kids, there's the Midland Railway Workshops not too far away. It's a slice of the area's history and often hosts events that are great for a family outing. It can be an interesting detour if you're interested in the local culture and heritage. Plus, with the workshops being a significant site in the area, it can be cool just to walk around and soak in the industrial vibe.

Back at the cafe, things are pretty relaxed. You won't find an overwhelming amount of people there, so finding a seat isn't usually a struggle. The staff? Super friendly and keen to make sure you're having a good time. Service is efficient without being rushed, which is always a plus. You might wait a bit during peak hours, but nothing too crazy.

The coffee itself? It's got a good kick, which is all anyone can ask for in a morning brew. They don't do overly fancy concoctions, sticking to the basics which they do well. The regulars appreciate that, and once you've had a cup, you can see why. The food is fresh and tasty. Again, it's simple bites, but they hit the spot, especially if you're in the mood for a fuss-free meal.

If you need a place to get work done, the calm atmosphere can be a nice change from busier cafes. It's not filled with hustle and bustle, so you can sit down with your laptop and get things done. They've got internet if you need to connect, and the tables are comfortable enough for a couple of hours of work.

In a nutshell, La Tazza Cafe & Catering is a solid hangout if you're around Midland. Their straightforward approach to coffee and brunch, along with a chilled-out atmosphere, makes it a comfy stop for any time of day. Plus, with plenty of nearby spots to explore afterward, it makes for an all-around enjoyable visit. Whether you're popping in for a quick coffee or planning to sit and chill for a while, you're likely to leave satisfied.
