Moore & Moore
Easy on the eyes, Moore & Moore in Fremantle features a spacious, breezy courtyard perfect for working. If you need a break, simply wander around their the adjoining art gallery next door. With everything from classic brunch ware and halloumi burgers to kombucha, there’s much to choose from when you’re feeling peckish.

Gordon St Garage
Free WiFi aside, Gordon St Garage is a winner with its stunning industrial warehouse vibes, which make for great eye candy. If you’re searching for a modern cafe/restaurant where you can get work done one hour, and fit in your dinner catch-up in the next, this one takes the cake.
16 Gordon St, West Perth
Yelo
Small but bustling with locals, Yelo is always alive with atmosphere – and on top of that, extremely parent-friendly. (Note their children’s play area.) With organic varieties of tea, acai bowls and freshly served food, there’s a whole array of healthy and nutritious options ready to give you that bit of extra brainpower. We admit, their enticing menu might get a little distracting!
402 Oxford St, Mount Hawthorn
Ootong & Lincoln
Perhaps one of the most famous cafes on South Terrace, Ootong & Lincoln is glorious in all the right ways. You could never go past it without recognising its iconic zebra mural. With its open layout, delicious menu, free WiFi and charming retro finishes, there’s everything you could ever need to feel right at home. Just simply type away as you enjoy the sea breeze!

Cranked Coffee
For those who prefer to travel by train, this all-in-one cafe is a no-fuss destination to get to. Simply hop off at Leederville train station and make your way down to the beginning of the Leederville cafe strip, and ta-da. Greeting you with a cosy interior and an equally charming outdoor dining area, Cranked Coffee is a relaxing work/play station indeed. Plus, there’s free WiFi.
5/106 Oxford St, Leederville
City Of Perth Library
Last but not least, the City of Perth Library deserves an honourable mention, for it certainly is no ordinary library. Sitting on the upper floor, its outdoor terrace offers an open outlook of the city as it meets the sparkling Swan River. As you’ll come to find, it’s one of the few places in the Perth CBD where you can duck away and enjoy some peace and quiet.
