Kinky Lizard Mosman Park

Kinky Lizard Mosman Park is a gem tucked away in a cozy corner of the Mosman Park Shopping Centre. I find myself swinging by here quite a bit, mostly for the chill vibe and a decent cup of coffee. The place is relaxed and easy to navigate, even for folks with wheelchairs. Parking is straightforward, with accessible spots available. Getting inside with a stroller is also no biggie, which makes it family-friendly too.

The staff is friendly and laid-back, offering quick service without any fuss. Most days, you can catch a good blend of locals grabbing a coffee before hitting the nearby Mosman Park or heading for a stroll along the Swan River. Since Kinky Lizard opens early and closes around mid-afternoon, it's perfect for morning people and those midday coffee cravings. Trust me, starting your day here with a hot brew is a great idea.

Coffee is the main draw for me, and Kinky Lizard doesn't disappoint. They take pride in their blends, and the aromas are enticing from the moment you step in. If you're not into coffee, their menu covers brunch staples pretty well. Think pancakes, eggs on toast, and a solid avo smash. Food here is unpretentious—hearty and satisfying, with portions that fill you up just right.

Outdoor seating is a big plus. Perth's weather can be fantastic, so having the option to sit outside with your pup by your side is always welcome. Yes, dogs are allowed, which adds to the place's charm. A well-behaved pup by your feet while sipping a latte under the sun sounds like my kind of Sunday morning.

Not into sitting? No problem. They offer kerbside pickup and no-contact delivery, which means getting your caffeine boost is hassle-free even on busy days. Plus, the takeaway service is convenient if you're in a rush. These options came in handy for me, especially during the earlier days of the pandemic, and it's great they continue to offer them now.

Once you're done with coffee at Kinky Lizard, there's more to explore around the Mosman Park area. You can check out the Mosman Park Golf Club if golfing is your thing, or just enjoy a leisurely walk along the nearby beaches. The shopping centre itself has some nice local shops worth visiting, making it simple to do a bit of shopping after brunch. There's a relaxed, community feel to the area, which adds to the cafe's charm.

For art lovers, the Heathcote Cultural Precinct isn't too far away, offering a hit of culture and creativity. Exhibitions here can be quite inspiring if you're looking for something different. Mosman Park's location between Fremantle and Perth makes it accessible and an easy stop if you're traveling between the two. They're perfect for grabbing a quick bite or just taking a breather.

As a regular, I've settled into a routine of sorts. I enjoy watching the varied crowd that frequents the cafe. From students with their books spread out to old friends catching up, the mix is ever fascinating. The atmosphere is warm, with just the right amount of background chatter for those who, like me, enjoy people-watching.

Finding a spot that ticks all the boxes can be tough, but Kinky Lizard Mosman Park gets a lot right. It's well-balanced, combining quality coffee, approachable food, and a chill setting. Next time you're in Mosman Park, pop by and see for yourself why locals, like me, keep coming back for more.
