Write a ReviewI visit coffee shops around Perth quite a bit, and Muffin Break in Midland always catches my eye. It's more than just a spot for a quick caffeine fix; it feels comfy and familiar. You know you're in for a good time when you walk in. The fresh aroma of the muffins baking pulls you in almost instantly. You can't beat that smell.
They serve up an array of muffins. There's a muffin for every type of craving—blueberry, chocolate chip, and even ones with a bit of a surprise twist. If you want something traditional, they've got you covered, but don't shy away from trying something new. These aren't just any store-baked muffins; they have that homemade feel, like someone's grandma put her heart into baking them. Throw in a perfectly brewed cup of coffee, and you're set.
The cafe cranks open early at 8 am every day but Sunday, when it opens at 11. It's perfect for a morning pick-me-up or a late brunch. Although they close at 5 pm most days, you still have plenty of time to swing by and chill for a bit. It's in the heart of Midland, so it gets quite a bit of foot traffic. Still, you can usually find a quiet corner to park yourself with a book or catch up on emails.
One of the best things about Muffin Break is its relaxed vibe. Whether you're in for a quick takeaway or you want to sit down and unwind, they make it super easy. They've got both dine-in and takeaway, catering to whatever your mood or schedule might be. And guess what? They even accept dogs, which is a plus for anyone with a furry friend in tow. It's super thoughtful and feels more like a community cafe because of it.
I was happy to see how accessible the place is. The entrance and car park are wheelchair-friendly, which is fantastic. Inclusivity matters a lot, and it's a big check in the plus column for Muffin Break.
If you're new to the area, Midland itself has a lot to offer. Just outside you'll find The Crescent, lined with shops and places to explore. A bit of retail therapy before or after your coffee stop can make for a full day out. The nearby Midland Gate Shopping Centre is within easy walking distance if you're in the mood for a bit of browsing. It's one of the bigger shopping centers in the area with lots of stores and eateries beyond the Muffin Break walls.
Food-wise, if you decide you want something beyond muffins, the area has some decent options. Maybe pop into some local spots for a proper meal or take the family out for a change of pace. There's something about Midland that feels warm and inviting, like it's built for wanderers and casual hangouts.
The coffee at Muffin Break also deserves a special mention. They do a great coffee roast here. It's consistently good, hitting just the right balance of depth and flavor. For folks like me who drink coffee religiously, consistency is king. Knowing you'll get a solid cup every time is what keeps you coming back.
When you sit there with your coffee and muffin, you'll see a mix of regulars and newcomers. It gives the place a lively hum without too much noise. The staff here are friendly and laid-back too, happy to make small talk while they whip up your order. You almost always leave with a smile after chatting with them.
Despite being a chain, this spot doesn't lose that personal touch. It doesn't feel like a cookie-cutter shop, but rather, part of the local fabric. Maybe it's the smells, the staff, or the comfort of a simple muffin that keeps people like me and others coming back. It's special in its simplicity.
So, next time you find yourself in Midland, don't miss out on this cozy nook. Whether it's the first visit or the hundredth, Muffin Break holds its charm with ease. Grab a muffin and coffee, settle in, and watch the day roll by in its gentle rhythm. You'll see why so many love to make it a regular stop.
