OMG Coffee & Toastie

I stopped by "OMG Coffee & Toastie" on St Georges Terrace in Perth, and I have to say, this spot is hitting all the right notes. As someone who hops around Perth's coffee scene quite a bit, I walked in curious, and walked out happy. It's closed over the weekend, which is a bummer, but their weekday hours are perfect for grabbing a morning bite before work.

The first thing you notice is the inviting aroma as you walk in. Their coffee game is strong, and it's clear they know what they're doing. I got a flat white, which came out rich, smooth, without any bitterness. If you're into lattes or just a straight-up black coffee, you won't be let down. It's no surprise their rating average is 4.8; they've earned it.

The toasties are the highlight here, and boy, do they deliver. I went for the classic ham and cheese, and it was exactly how you'd want it—crispy edges, gooey cheese, and a touch of mustard to keep things interesting. It's the kind of food that's great in its simplicity. There are other options too, both meaty and veggie, so everyone's covered. If brunch with a buddy or two is your thing, this place should be on your list.

One thing I really love is their outdoor seating. Perth's weather can be great, and sitting outside with a coffee in hand is bliss. Plus, it's dog-friendly, so you might spot some furry friends lounging about. Inside, seating is simple and cozy, no fluff but quite comfortable. Wheelchair-accessible seating is a thoughtful feature, making access easy for everyone.

The lively vibe on St Georges Terrace adds to the experience. The area buzzes with energy as professionals and locals scuttle past. Close by, you've got the historic London Court, perfect for a quick post-coffee stroll. If you've got time, you can wander over to Elizabeth Quay. It's just a short walk away and offers those killer views of the city's skyline. Over by the quay, you can hop on a ferry or kick back on the grassy areas. It's a nice way to wrap up your morning.

Getting back to the café, service is quick and friendly. The staff are genuinely warm, and your order comes out without much waiting. They also offer delivery and takeaway, which is handy if you're on the go. The option to order in been a lifesaver for busy mornings when time is tight.

If you drive, know that parking can be a hassle in the heart of Perth. Plan ahead, maybe park a little distance away, which I find worth it for the walk through bustling streets. Public transport options are plenty too, with busses and trains that drop you close to the action.

While they don't have a website, it's not a big deal. Their reputation speaks volumes, and connection through social media keeps folks updated. Calling them at their listed number has worked great whenever I needed to check something.

It's interesting how something as simple as coffee and toasties can anchor your day. There's this understated charm in the simplicity of OMG Coffee & Toastie. Whether you're heading to the office or just meeting a mate, it's a reliable spot that doesn't try too hard—which, in itself, is refreshing. They stick to what they know and do it well.

Overall, this place is a little gem in Perth's coffee scene. It's not trying to be the fanciest spot around, but it doesn't need to be. The regular crowd, the quality bites, and that small café warmth all blend into something special. It's cozy, it's delightful, and it's exactly where you want to be on a weekday morning when coffee calls.
