Write a ReviewAs someone who's explored many coffee shops in Perth, Epic Espresso in West Perth is a real find. This place is a cozy spot tucked away on Hay Street, just doing its thing without pretending. The space is a breath of fresh air, with a simple, genuine vibe that doesn't try too hard.
Their specialty is coffee, paired perfectly with creamy hot chocolates. If you're a caffeine enthusiast, be ready to indulge. I've tasted my fair share of lattes, but theirs stand out. The balance between smooth, rich flavors and just the right notes of bitterness is a win. They don't just rely on fancy tricks—good beans and skilled hands make a difference here.
Their hours work well for early birds and those wanting a late morning pick-me-up. Open from 6:30 am during the week and 7 am on Saturdays, this spot calls to those in need of a wake-up shot pre-office or weekend adventure. They close by mid-afternoon on weekdays and noon on Saturday, so plan your visit accordingly. Sundays are off the cards as they're closed then.
Epic Espresso is accessible and inclusive with wheelchair-friendly facilities and outdoor seating. It's the kind of place where you can grab a cup and snag a spot outside, soaking up the West Perth ambiance. If you've got a dog, feel free to bring them along. The staff seems to welcome both human and furry company without fuss.
Need to plow through some work or browse online? They have Wi-Fi, perfect for catching up on emails or just browsing while sipping away. If sitting in isn't your thing, the takeaway option lets you grab your drink on the go. And yes, they've got delivery, keeping it real with convenient options.
The place keeps things genuine with its lack of a fancy website, which somehow adds to its charm. It reminds you that the focus here is the coffee, not the bells and whistles. They've got a decent amount of reviews, over 180 of them, averaging a solid 4.2 stars. That should tell you something about their consistency.
West Perth itself is a mix of business and leisure. You're just a skip away from Kings Park, one of the world's largest inner-city parks. It's perfect for a walk before or after your coffee. This part of Perth is also a hub for dining and art. Nearby are a range of restaurants, offering everything from Italian to Asian cuisine, making it a fantastic area if you're in a peckish mood.
If museums are your thing, the Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts isn't too far away. It offers a burst of modern art in an open setting, worth popping by if you're near. For a more corporate vibe, you'll find plenty of high-rises around, given West Perth's business heart.
In short, Epic Espresso gives exactly what it promises. It's a no-fuss coffee spot that respects good flavor and casual comfort. Whether you're an office regular needing more than a mid-day buzz, or just a visitor exploring the local offerings, this coffee shop fits right in. It blends seamlessly into the West Perth patchwork, a place worth including on your coffee checklist. The espresso may be epic, but the real winner here is the simplicity done right.
