Cafe 196 - East Perth

During my hotel stay, I dined at the restaurant multiple times and found the food to be consistently delicious. My partner also enjoyed their meals.

The coffee here is excellent and the service is top-notch.

I was thrilled to hear that Cafe 196 had reopened for breakfast when I arrived, meaning there was no need to walk over to Adelaide's. The staff were friendly and the chef cooked up a delicious buffet-style breakfast. There was a good variety of hot dishes, juices, and more, and we left satisfied on both visits.

I ordered salmon, which was delicious. My husband ordered Porterhouse steak with 'creamy mashed potato ', which tasted like the dried stuff you add water to and his steak looked anaemic but he said it tasted good. $33 for steak, mash but no veggies!

Plenty to eat and with good variety. Asian as well as European breakfast, hot and cold food. Fruits, yoghurts, eggs done two ways poached or fried, French toast, pastries. Coffee wasn't hot but the hotel staff are quick to rectify. Breakfast was included in price of stay and happy to say this was all very reasonable.
