Write a ReviewElixir is one of those warm hangouts that keeps me buzzing with good vibes. It's got that sweet spot on Stirling Highway in Nedlands. If you cruise around Perth and love a good coffee spot, you've probably heard about it. They dish out artisan coffee and sandwiches in really cool digs. It's sort of like hanging out at a friend's place, laid-back but with a bit more style.
Whenever I walk into Elixir, I'm greeted by the scent of fresh coffee. They open bright and early at 6 am on most days, except Sundays when they're closed. It's perfect for those of us who prefer to grab our caffeine fix before the day kicks off. Regulars like myself know that you've got until 2 pm to get your favorite brew, except for Saturdays when they close a little earlier at 1 pm.
Every time I pop in, I'm reminded of the community vibe they've got going. You can spot students, workers, and even some locals catching up. It gets pretty lively, which I think is part of its charm. The staff are super friendly, making each visit feel welcoming, simply put, they've got top-notch service.
What really sets Elixir apart is their coffee quality. Every cup is crafted with care, and it shows. You can tell they know their beans. Their espresso drinks have a nice rich flavor, just the right punch. No fancy jargon here, just really great coffee that hits the spot. If you're a fan of something a bit different, their iced coffee is refreshing and always done right.
Elixir isn't just about coffee though. Their sandwiches are quite the treat too. They keep things interesting with a variety of fillings and fresh ingredients. The taste is always spot on, never trying too hard, just simply delicious. It's the kind of food you want when you're chilling or catching up with friends.
This shop is also very keen on accessibility. They've got a wheelchair-accessible car park and entrance. This, along with facilities like a wheelchair-accessible toilet, means they really cater to everyone. The seating is inclusive too, so it's welcoming for all visitors. Plus, you can bring your furry friends along. Dogs are allowed, which makes for a super chill vibe outside.
Nedlands itself is a nice place to be, with plenty happening around. Just nearby, you've got the University of Western Australia. It's a beautiful campus to take a stroll through, especially when the jacarandas are in bloom. Matilda Bay is not too far off either. It's a lovely spot if you want some fresh air by the river.
Back to Elixir, they've got options for takeaway, dine-in, and even delivery for those lazy afternoons. For the regulars like me, it's those little touches that make Elixir special. It's not just a coffee shop; it's part of the community. Whether you're grabbing a quick coffee or staying to unwind, you feel that sense of place that's genuine and nice.
The average rating of 4.5 from reviewers isn't surprising. For a spot with so many glowing reviews, you can tell they're doing something right. The vibe here is genuine, no gimmicks, just a cozy and friendly atmosphere. It's the kind of place you find yourself wanting to come back to, like a home away from home. The place just feels good and that's pretty rare these days.
Cruising through Perth's coffee scene, Elixir stands out as a place that's authentic in what it offers. The coffee, the food, the vibe—it all comes together naturally. Sure, it's always tempting to try every new spot that pops up, but places like Elixir remind me why I keep coming back. It's that perfect blend of good coffee, atmosphere, and heart.
So, if you're wandering around Nedlands and need some decent caffeine, make sure to drop by Elixir. It's not just about drinking coffee; it's about enjoying the space, the people, and the buzz. And with easy hours and comfy digs, it's ready to be your new favorite hangout. Here's to those simple pleasures that make for a good day out.
