Write a ReviewEver find yourself wandering around Northbridge, looking for a good coffee spot? Lulu Lala is where I keep coming back whenever I'm in this lively part of Perth. With over 180 reviews and a solid 4.6-star rating, it clearly holds a special place in many hearts, including mine. It's conveniently located on Aberdeen Street, which is close to other attractions, making it an easy choice if you're planning a day in the area.
The coffee at Lulu Lala is consistently good, which is something to treasure. Whether you like a strong espresso or a smooth latte, they know what they're doing. Plus, it's one of those places that truly understand the right temperature for a great cup of coffee. None of that lukewarm stuff that makes your heart sink.
The staff here are friendly and remember faces, which gives the place a nice, community feel. It's easy to see why they get repeat customers. They keep the service laid-back, yet prompt. It's the type of place where a simple “Hello” feels genuine and not forced or mechanical.
Now, let's talk about the space. They have outdoor seating, which is perfect for those breezy Perth mornings. Grab a seat outside with your dog and watch Northbridge go by. It's dog-friendly, so your furry friend won't have to miss out on the outing. Inside has a cozy vibe, with lots of natural light pouring in. It's a mix of retro and modern, making it an Instagram-worthy spot for sure. You'll often find various groups, from solo coffee drinkers to friends having brunch or people tapping away on their laptops.
The food offering isn't overly complicated. Think of classic brunch menus without too much fuss. They keep the options comfort-driven, which to me, enhances the whole coffee experience. Plus, having both takeaway and dine-in options is great, considering how many people could be on the go.
If you're planning to visit, it's good to know their hours. They open at 7 am except for weekends when they kick off an hour later on Saturday and take Sundays off. You can catch them up to 6 pm most days, which is handy for an after-work caffeine fix or lazy mornings.
Beyond this cozy nook, Northbridge itself holds lots of attractions to explore. Art lovers can head to the Art Gallery of Western Australia, only a short walk away. For something a bit different, there's the WA Museum Boola Bardip, which opened to plenty of hype and doesn't disappoint.
If you're into food, Northbridge won't let you down. It's basically a mini-world of culinary delights, with Asian, European, and other international eats all lined up just around the corner from Lulu Lala. It's a foodie's dream, as tasty as it is varied. So if brunch doesn't quite fill you up, there's a complement of cuisine waiting to tempt your tastebuds.
Nightlife in Northbridge can really buzz. So if you're in the mood to transition from coffee to cocktails, places like Ezra Pound and Sneaky Tony's offer a good haunt. Not fancy, just cool and laid-back. After a day of exploration or even just a long coffee-driven catch-up with a friend, unwinding with a drink feels just right.
Lulu Lala is perfectly situated if catching an event at the State Theatre Centre is on your list. Being nearby makes it easy to grab a quick coffee before diving into some live performance. Same goes if you're there for a festival, which Northbridge has quite a few of throughout the year.
In summary, Lulu Lala isn't just a coffee stop. It's a place where you can chill, enjoy a good brew, and experience a slice of life in Northbridge. It's a declared favorite for coffee lovers, brunch goers, pet owners, and anyone in need of some downtime on a busy Perth day. Don't overthink it—give Lulu Lala a visit.
