Best Bike Friendly Cafe's in Perth?

[Downhill]

Recently I was horrified to discover that one of my usual coffee stops had decided to charge $5 for a miniscule capuccino. I don't mind paying extra for good coffee and good service, but sadly that wasn't the case. Time to move on.

So which are the best bike friendly cafes in Perth? In my opinion the Pickled Fig (South Freo), Tranby Tea rooms (Maylands), Sticky Beaks (Kings Park) and Leapfrogs (Joondalup) would have to be fairly high on the list. Any others?

$5! I'm more of a smoothie connoisseur myself.

+1 Pickled Fig. Great place to stop. The smoothies are top notch.
Sassy's also does a mean smoothie and hearty breakfast.
The Junction Ice Creamery in Midland is a cooling stop after a hot day in the hills.
Zamia Cafe in Kings Park has a good smoothie list.
Zephyr's on the river in East Fremantle is just a great location more than anything, the grub is pretty good too.
Kettle Cafe near Lathlain Park is friendly and has charm.

Just spent 10 days cycling around the Piednomt region of Northern Italy. The most expensive coffee I had was $1.50!!! Bloody marvelous tasting coffee with a "prego" and a smile!

Just putting it out there!

I noticed in France and Italy that drinks are ranked according to price thus:

• Most expensive - Coke Zero
• then beer
• then water
• then wine

We drunk a lot of wine in Europe.

I'm flying into Perth tomorrow to spend a week watching my son play lacrosse. We are staying at Murdoch University and the matches are at Success. I won't be riding but are there any decent cafes near either location?
Also - where is the famous Sassy's located? I've read so many mentions of it on this forum over the years, I feel I need to try it! (Mind you, it's mostly Colin who mentions it!!)

Rifos in Maylands

New management, excellent service, the best coffee and good food. Gone from very average to very good

Where abouts is that, Flash?

Iv previously found a cafe in North Perth pretty good, and very cycle friendly.
Its on Hobart St, I think... Dont know the name though.

Atomic in South Perth has always been pretty good, too.
And there is one just toward the bottom of Mount St near the freeway overpass bridge that is good if you've been doing some Kings Park stuff before work.

Corner 8th and Guildford.

+1 for Atomic, my favourite post ride breakfast spot at the moment.

Ah, I know the one.
Ill have to try it and report back.

I thought that closed years ago?? I used to go there post Jacob's Ladder workout.

Great tip, thank you! Haven't got there myself but passed your recommendation to other parents in the group and they came back raving about it.
Such a shame - we have been here since Sat arvo and have just seen the lacrosse pitch, Murdoch Uni Village where we are staying and the points in between!
The only other spot we have been to was a brief late afternoon trip to Fremantle. I saw what looked like an interesting bike shop opposite a car park there but didn't get inside.
The tournament finishes tomorrow and our boys are in the grand final.... Then we fly out Sunday morning - Sassy's will have to wait!

I have been there a number of times for coffee after a couple of pre-work KP loops this year (mostly through winter), so it's most definitely still open...
I have however, only used it this year - So I am unsure as to whether it closed and re-opened or is under new management or whatever.

I can't think of the name of it... So I hope we are talking about the same place.

It does only open at 7am on weekdays though, for those that start work really early (might miss it?!).

[Red Rider]

Yes, maybe the times changed. I'll have to check it out tomorrow morning
