Foam Cafe

Foam Cafe is one of those spots you stumble upon and instantly love. It's tucked away near South Trigg Beach—a slice of chill with an ocean view. I've been to quite a few coffee places around Perth, and this one definitely stands out.

First off, Foam Cafe is open every day from 6 am to noon. Whether you're an early bird or not, that works! I usually drop by after an early morning walk by the coastline. It being so close to the beach means it's the perfect spot to start your day, especially if you enjoy watching the waves crash with a hot cup in hand.

Coffee here is really good, with many folks mentioning it in their reviews. The cafe has a 4.3-star rating from 29 reviews, which isn't shabby. What I like is how consistent their brews are. Sometimes you hit cafes and get a dud, but Foam keeps it steady. Whether you're into a robust espresso or a mellow flat white, they've got you covered.

The staff? Super chill and friendly. They've always got a smile, and they don't rush you, which is nice when you're trying to ease into your day. They get your order out quick, though, so no worries if you're in a bit of a hurry.

One thing you'll notice right off the bat is how welcoming the place is. It's got a wheelchair-accessible car park and entrance, which is always good to see. You can bring your dog too—yay for pet-friendly spots! I've seen a few doggos there enjoying the sun while their humans enjoy their coffee.

Seating is relaxed, with options to sit inside or out. I prefer outside because, really, why waste a view like that? The vibe at Foam Cafe is laid-back, fitting well with the beachy setting. It's casual, which is just right if you've just finished a dip in the sea or a jog along the shore.

Food options at Foam are solid, focusing on breakfast bites. You get your basics and some with a twist. I'm a fan of their avocado toast. It's fresh and hits the spot without being over the top. And if you're more into something sweet, their pastries have gotten a fair bit of praise. Croissants and muffins—they do those nicely.

If you're looking to explore beyond the cafe, Trigg surrounds you with options. There's Trigg Beach just a short walk away, perfect for surfing or just basking in the sun. Catching a sunset here is something you won't regret. Whitford's Nodes Park isn't far either, offering a bit more green space if that's your style.

And if you want a bit of retail therapy or more food, the Karrinyup Shopping Centre isn't too far off. They've got a bunch of stores and eateries, so it's an easy next step after you've fueled up at Foam.

Parking in the area can be hit or miss, depending on the time, but Foam having its own car park makes life easier. No one likes cruising around looking endlessly for a spot, right?

Throughout the week, Foam Cafe keeps busy with a steady flow of locals and visitors. It's one of those places where you can feel the community vibe and regulars chatting with the baristas. Even when it's bustling, it never feels overcrowded or hectic.

One quirk? They close at noon every day, so no lingering for afternoon tea. It's not a huge deal, but something to keep in mind if you tend to lose track of time.

Trigg and the surrounding area offer quite a bit, but Foam Cafe is a gem. It's great for anyone who loves a good brew with a view. If you're in Perth and haven't checked it out, you're missing out. Slide it into your weekend plans, or pop by any weekday if you need an escape from the city buzz.
