The Lunch Stop in Wangara is a little gem I stumbled upon recently, and it's become a bit of a go-to for me. Tucked along Prindiville Drive, it's got a simple vibe that makes you want to kick back and relax. Plenty of places say they're accessible, but this one really does make the effort with wheelchair-friendly parking, entrances, and seating. Big plus for that in my book.

It's open from 6 am to 3 pm during the week, which makes it perfect for breakfast or a midday coffee run. The staff here are warm and welcoming—exactly what you'd want when you're just rolling out of bed or looking for a lunch break escape from work. When you walk in, you're greeted with that warm coffee smell that seems to wrap around you, promising a good brew.

I've noticed a few dog owners relaxing outside with their pups. It's one of those spots where you can just kick back with your furry friend and sip your latte without feeling rushed. Yep, dogs are totally welcome. There's something very "Perth" about enjoying a coffee outdoors, and The Lunch Stop nails it. It's simple, with no frills, but that's sort of the charm you appreciate.

The menu covers the basics really well. Sometimes you don't need a thousand options, just ones that are done right. I typically go for their brunch options, which are available for dine-in or takeaway. The eggs are spot-on, and they have this way of making simple toast and jam seem like a grand start to the day. Their sandwiches and wraps make great lunch choices, and you can tell they're made with fresh ingredients. Nothing too fancy, just real food.

Wangara itself is a bit of an industrial area, so don't expect loads of touristy stuff around. But if you're looking to do a bit more than sip coffee, there's always a way to make an outing. Hit up the local markets if you have the time. A little-known fact: there's quite a range of factory outlets nearby. If you're like me and love a bargain, the area's a goldmine for that.

For anyone with business in the area, it's a perfect coffee stop. Whether you're on a job or just passing through, The Lunch Stop is more than just a place to grab caffeine. It's a local spot with a loyal following, probably because they get the formula right. The coffee? Consistently good. Never too strong or too weak. Whether it's a flat white or a cappuccino, you'll find they hit the mark.

Service is quick, and they never make you wait too long, even when it's busy. With only nineteen reviews logged, it seems to have flown under the radar, but those who have found it have Christened it a 4.6-star favourite. People like me, who like their coffee shop experiences smooth and grounded, appreciate places like this all the more.

Wangara might not be the first place you think of for a coffee outing, but for those in the know, The Lunch Stop is an oasis. Amidst workshops and office buildings, it's our little breath of fresh air. You'll find regulars chatting with staff, and if you're toting an office chair on wheels, there's room for you too. None of that awkward balancing act to get through the door.

Speaking of balance, there's enough in this area to spend a morning or afternoon on foot. After fueling up at The Lunch Stop, you could swing by some nearby parks to walk it off or visit the Wanneroo Botanic Gardens nearby. You can't go wrong with a little nature to round off your visit.

All in all, this spot is unassuming yet consistently good. Just what you want when you're seeking out a local coffee haven. If you're a regular Perth coffee seeker like me, you'll appreciate the simplicity and quality without the fuss. Wangara's little lunch haven, The Lunch Stop, exactly where you need it when you need it.
