I have been to Holly Raye's many times now and it just gets better each visit . From the ambience to the best coffee and cake to the amazing menu ! I have pretty much tried most of the breakfast options and I have also been for dinner . Always friendly and Holly is a passionate owner and has been so helpful and made me a few cakes for friends which they loved . I can highly recommend .

I don't normally write reviews but after requesting a chocolate cake for a work function recently, well I just had to � The cake was absolutely amazing. I had so many comments about how lovely the cake was. It was possibly one of the best cakes I've had. I'm also addicted to their salted caramel slices !!!! Holly is so passionate about her business and it truly shows. Best service, best food and a beautiful atmosphere. We are so lucky to have them in Basso � x

Delicious brekky spot, our Basso fave. I also ordered a special occasion signature chocolate cake for an afternoon tea and it was absolutely amazing, beautifully presented and tasted awesome, everyone raved about it. Very very happy, thanks! :)

Delicious evening meal. Had the sardines, beef bourguignon and semi freddo with kirsch. Fresh sardines, fried so delicately yummm, scrummy beef, delish semi freddo! Also thankyou for putting up with us staying beyond closing, due to our huge conversation going on for ages. Atmosphere was gorgeous, wait staff lovely and helpful and the chef, superb! Lovely little cafe with Edith Piaf singing in the background, balmy autumn evening. <3<3

I love everything about this gorgeous cafe - from their friendly and efficient service to their excellent coffee, delicious food and efforts at sustainability. We went for breakfast last Sunday and although the cafe was very busy, our coffees and meals arrived at our table quickly and with a smile. Even the fellow customers were lovely! We are returning for breakfast with friends this Sunday and can't wait to try the French dinner! Congratulations to Holly and her staff for a warm and welcoming cafe, my new favourite!

Firstly - the rise and shine tart was superb as always (and that relish is THE best!), I also treated myself to a caramel slice (probably my favourite caramel slice anywhere ever). But most importantly, whoever was making the coffee today was on point! Sweet liquid of the Gods!

Popped in for morning tea with my two boys today. My 2yr old was in serious need of a nap so had to cut our visit short. Even with my little party pooper everything was excellent, friendly staff, speedy service and delicious food. My 4yr old already wants to go back for a choc/raspberry cup cake and best of all the Chocolate (and Banana) bread. Thanks so much

Hands down the best cafe in Bassendean! The pancakes are to die for and the coffee is superb! Can't wait to go back for another visit. I do wonder though, why no hash browns on the menu? I love a good home made hash brown :)

Neighbourhood gem. Cute vibe and lovely efficient service despite being full house for brunch on a Sunday. Granola was tasty with fresh fruit and rhubarb compote (which was the stand out!). Unfortunately they didn’t have DF yoghurt so I got it without. Tasted my friend’s gnocchi which was pillowy soft inside with a crisp crust and full of flavour despite not having a obvious sauce. Both of us were so full as the dishes had a generous serve. Will definitely return to try their other dishes and cakes. The cabinet of baked goods looked so tempering.

We visited Holly Rayes for their Friday night set price French menu after a foodie friend at work told us how good it was. And we weren't disappointed.  In fact we enjoyed it so much we've been back three times, with friends who also loved it.  The food is good, honest and extremely tasty - the crisp confit duck and lentils was truly one of the most flavourful and satisfying dishes I've ever had the pleasure of eating.  But then, the  pork loin cordon bleu and lamb were both amazing too.  Oh and don't forget to order the baguette with butter and tapenade.  The desserts haven't overly thrilled me (but I'm not a massive dessert person) and astonishingly they don't do coffees on a Friday night. But their corkage (it's BYO all the way) is very reasonable, the service is really friendly and it's a lovely small venue.  We will be going back again and again and again.....

Food was okay, had the eggs on toast + bacon. The poached eggs were completely cooked hard, so it was a little expensive for the quality. Nice enough place though, staff were friendly. Dog friendly too.

Not gotta lie – we love this place so so much! Okay, can we all take a moment to appreciate this eye-catching dog mural? With the cute little vintage interior that makes you feel like home, as well as the mouthwatering yet, creative menu, guys, you got us hooked. Scrambled egg sounds a bit boring. So let’s add a bit of fresh chilli, marinated feta and coriander, then serve it on top of a sourdough toast. Yes, it worked well and made it more interesting.

This is one of my favourite Perth cafes. The coffee is great and the cakes made on premises are amazing. The carrot cake is the best in Perth! Some of the other cakes can be dry though, ans the portions are getting smaller...
Give this place a shot, Im sure you wont be disappointed.

Love this Bassendean local- the food, the fit out, the atmosphere- everything is on point. We went to Holly Raye's on a busy Saturday morning and we were greeted by kind staff. We ordered the Bacon and Egg roll- so delish. The coffee is amazing too. And the cakes are just so gorgeous and we couldn't help ourselves and grabbed a slice of the cake of the day- a triple layer vanilla bean cake. So tasty. Its a must try when you are down Bassendean way.

The only reason we actually came here was for the cake, and Holly Raye's cafe didn't disappoint! We got a massive slice of the chocolate malt cake. The icing was so rich and sweet, it was amazing! The ratio of icing to cake was actually perfect. The cake itself was moist and was so rich and decadent. It was the best cake I have actually ever eaten.

Holly Rayes is one of the better additions to the Bassendean strip – it has a great feel – from the eye catching mural on the external wall to the comfortable dining room – painted floor boards, exposed concrete floor towards the kitchen, and an inviting area out front on the footpath with blinds for protection from rain, wind and sun.

I went to Holly Raye's last weekend and had the AM breakfast salad and a couple of flat white coffees. Service was friendly, food was fresh and delicious. I felt very healthy eating it! And coffees were excellent. I grabbed a take-away chocolate brownie and a piece of the Sundae Fudge cake. Both were scrumptious. I wish this cafe was closer to my house but I can highly recommend to anyone who wants to try it. I really enjoyed my experience here and I can see the passion than has gone in to this little gem.

Holly Rayes is bloody awesome! Delish food, great coffee, and really lovely staff.

The cake is always on point, and looks stunning as well, and the interior is beautiful. They have a pretty small menu, but it caters to pretty much everyone with classic breakfasts and a few healthier options as well.

I love that they use great quality products such as Mork chocolate, The Pure Press almond milk, and also organic eggs and toast. This is what all cafes should be like :)

With rain threatening, we sat outside in the autumn sun .. on the edge of the quiet Sunday morning street .. the cafe was busy but the road was not. Chilli scrambled eggs, burrito and smoked salmon were all superb .. plentiful portions served hot by friendly wait staff. Poached eggs were runny, scrambled were "soft but firm" and creamy - all perfect and yummy. The benedict eggs weren't drowned and the marinated pulled pork was wonderful. Adults ordered coffee which could have been a bit quicker, but when we got it the taste was great. A peanut butter hot chocolate was a novelty for the children and a delight to taste. All in all a place for the bookmark to come back again.

Quaint, little place that's become quite the feature of Bassendean, adding to its overall charm. Holly Raye's boasts a gorgeous interior and their staff just as fantastic and as glowing as this place is. I opted for my favourite, the smoothie bowl and it was fresh and great as usual. In the past I've had the jalapeño corn bread which was also quite nice. Today i was asked to sample their new chai pudding which was a little bowl of cinnamon goodness. I also enjoy their fresh produce for coffee experiment but am yet to try any of the sweets they have on display. I love this little place but i think im a little bias because i grew up in Bassendean.

I almost ordered the bright eyes (mostly due to the name) when the friendly staff informed me that it was a cup of coffee of my choice with espresso on the side. I decided to go with my usual soy flat white. I didn’t wait too long for my coffee and breakfast guacamole to arrive.

The jalapeno cornbread had enough spicy kick and this dish was exactly my kind of breakfast especially since it was filled with my favourite items like the avocado, sweet corn and black beans. It wasn’t overly spicy and the salsa on it gave a really fresh tomato-ey flavour. 

My coffee was really delicious too and came with the right temperature. I’m not a coffee connoisseur by any stretch of the imagination and the only requirement was for my coffee to not be burnt (which unfortunately I experienced many times…).

After a not-so-incredible visit last week, my partner and I dropped in this morning to give Holly Raye's another shot. I'm SO glad we did. Having worked in hospitality, I totally get having off days, and I'm sure that's all it was last week, because today the lovely staff were all smiles and efficiency, and we were greeted as soon as we walked in.
The fitout is bright and airy; all white with accents of mint and teal, which gives the small space inside a super comfortable feel.
My partner ordered the brekkie burger, and I pinched a bit of the awesome smoky bacon (yum!). I had the breakfast guac, which was a huge serve, and heaven on a plate. The star of the dish was definitely the jalapeño cornbread, with just the right amount of heat. I would have loved to see a bit more guac on the plate and less beans, but considering the price of avocados at the moment, there's no complaints here!
To top it all off we had a malted chocolate milkshake (hell yeah), and a soy flat white. Outstanding coffee, guys. We'll be back again soon, no doubt!

Popped in here for brunch, I had the bacon and egg brioche bun and my partner had the sticky gingerbread.

I absolutely love, love, love Holly Raye's! I've been there a few times now as it is (sort of) local for me and I've loved every visit so far! I usually get the pulled pork eggs benedict which are so delicious and flavoursome! The eggs are cooked perfectly every time, the pulled pork is always melt-in-the-mouth and the bread is so good and fresh. I have also had the smoked karri bacon breakfast burger which was great too! The coffee and juices are great and their cake cabinet looked mouthwatering every time I have visited! I can definitely recommend the mars bar chocolate brownie, yum! Haven't been able to fit in any of their cakes yet but it's on my list :) the place has a lovely atmosphere and service is friendly. Can't wait to be back soon!

"Love the interior." Those were the first words I uttered as we stepped into the new Bassendean cafe Holly Rayes. It's beautiful - simplistic with it's use of light wood, vintage feel and turquoise accents. There's a counter laden with cakes (if only I'd had the stomach space to fit some in after our savoury brunch), and tables outside with diners who've brought their dogs along for an excursion out and about.

Went here on Wednesday for lunch on a what I thought would be quiet afternoon and was surpised to find the cafe almost full! I made it just in time for the 2pm breaky cut off and ordered the 'sticky gingerbread' as I was in the mood for something sweet. I was not disappointed! The sticky marshmallows and creamy mascarpone were such good textures together. I always get long blacks and love to try different single origins so was happy to have the barista come over with a special card detailing the single origin of the week which just happened to be an awesome Ethiopian. She also brought some sparkling water and told me about the different 'notes' of the coffee. I love this kind of attention to detail! I took a cold pressed apple and lemon juice away with me and a meringue brownie (it was sooo good!) for my man friend. So stoked with this place and cant wait to go back!!

Amazing interiors, stunning colourful Anya Brock out the front and smiley staff to brighten your morning. I'll admit I've been stalking Holly Raye's on Instagram since the early building stages and couldn't wait to visit. It was worth the wait! The menu is pretty healthy with sweet and savoury options to please the crowds. The cafe was busy but we managed to squeeze in right under the air con. I went with the Guacamole on Jalapeño Cornbread. E went with the Pulled Pork Benedict. My dish was full of flavour, not too spicy and very pretty to look at. It was fresh with just enough zing. E's pork was melt in your mouth soft, the eggs were cooked perfectly and the hollandaise was nice (she did say she wished it had more though)! The coffee was smooth and just strong enough and the crockery was super cute and vintage styled. Love it! We will be back for sure - I need to try the sweets!

Thoroughly enjoyed my first visit to Holly Raye's recently. Went for breakfast and everything was a hit. I was feeling the need for a bit of health and so chose the acai bowl. Wow. Wouldn't normally get excited about this but everything - coconut, fresh fruit, granola, etc - was on point. Perfectly balanced, good contrast in textures and oh so fresh and healthy. Felt very virtuous whilst watching the other half devour the brioche with Karri smoked bacon. I did of course taste the mouthgasm that is Karri smoked bacon, because let's face it, it ain't breakfast without a little bacon in your belly!

Coffee from Micrology was nice and fruity. Turmeric in the juice a fine touch (now added to my own cold pressed juices). And almond milk babycinos ftw!

The location feels like they got the early jump on a little precinct ripe for the rejuvenation treatment such as Maylands has received in the last 5 years. Hoping Holly Raye sticks around long enough to see it happen.

Friendly staff, wasn't pestered or interrogated as soon as we walked in. Beautiful cafe and lovely atmosphere, good coffee and lots of sweets on the counter. We paid $13 for a chocolate and strawberry meringue and 2 cappuccinos. Meringue was beautifully served with strawberries, double cream and syrup. Only bummer was sugar in a dish on the table. Can't wait to go back and try some breakfast off the menu! Pretty good for only being open 5 weeks!

As a matter of principle I won't spend more than $4.50 on a muffin, but I was quite happy to pay $5 here for the beautiful service and friendliness I received by every member of staff on my way to the counter. I was on the lookout for a matcha latte or red espresso latte which unfortunately they do not do currently, however they do have a few chai options for the non coffee drinkers out there. I am very much looking forward to coming back to eat in. It would be nice if they had seating around the corner so that we could sit and enjoy the magnificent mural of the owners' dog on the wall!

Though newbie Holly Rayes is tucked down an unassuming Bassendean side street, you won't be able to miss it with the stunning dog mural by my favourite artist Anya Brock. I was lunching with some of my favourites Kim and Kez. Kez had mentioned to me recently that a friend of hers, Holly, had opened a new café. I was very keen to try it, especially when I found out that Holly's mum is in the kitchen - she used to work at the fabulous Sherbet cake and bake shop.

The staff here all seem friendly. I had wanted a berry smoothie, but they were out of the ingredients. However, when we were eating, someone came up to me and said a shipment had just come in and would I still like one. So that was quite nice (of course it's beneficial to them in making a sale, too). There is food here for all budgets, with menu items around $20, and display case items around $5. The muffins, tarts, and cakes are of decent serving size. There's a wide range of beverages, as well. Value for money depends on what you get. The flat white "wasn't great, wasn't bad". The cafe would sit about 30 people comfortably (inside and out), so at peak times it would be a bit of a squeeze. There were about 20 there at 11:30am (on a Friday) but the service was quite fast.

Also, the Salted Caramel Chocolate Crackle was really good.

Great little cafe that has just opened in Bassendean. Coffee was pretty nice. The brioche burger is delicious - except perhaps a little pricey - and the scrambled eggs while very nice were the smallest serve I've ever seen, looked like less than two eggs in it. But I did enjoy the experience and will visit again.

Just like Maylands, Bassendean is going through a bit of a renaissance. There's apartments being built, a small bar set to open any day now and fantastic cafes popping up, with the newest being a little beauty called Holly Raye's. They opened last week to a loud applause of Instagram and Facebook love. Andy and I visited on Friday and I wasn't the only person there with a camera. When you have food bloggers there that early, you know this is a cafe with some serious hype.

A wonderful addition to Bassendean. Absolutely amazing coffee (Micrology) and the food is delicious and unique. Highly recommend the Sticky gingerbread, vanilla mascarpone, treacle toffee sauce, poached pear with campfire marshmallow - it was awesome!

Finally another spot in Perth using Micrology - Best coffee in the area. Don't know what Bek Saw is on about, but the pulled pork benny I had was 10/10! Perfectly cooked. Poaching was spot on. Super cool fit out and very friendly, genuine service. Seeing so many furry friends was a bonus. Keep at it Holly Rayes!

Holly Rae's brings some much needed funk in to the area. Good coffee, yummy food and the retro deco brought this local simpleton a tasty experience.

Fantastic meal, coffee and service.
Turned up with a couple friends for breakfast and was faced with a queue all the way out the door.
After a super short wait we still struggled to decide on breakfast as the variety of food on the menu was too good.
We choose three different dishes and were each impressed by the promptness,presentation and flavour. A call back by the waitress after about 5 minutes of serving was a good show of true business.
Coffees are the best I've had since leaving Europe.
We definitely be making Holly Raye's a weekend tradition.

Love this new little local! Was very busy as only just opened to we grabbed two take away coffees and a peanut butter biscuit to go! My husband is a massive coffee snob and the coffee definitely passed the test. Will be back to try a meal for sure. The menu looks really good!

Hooray! A "Mt Lawley" type cafe close to home. The decor is simple but perfect - exposed brick, painted floorboards, MDF faux exposed beams on the ceiling and simple furniture with the 50s style mint green fridge being the statement piece.
We ordered the smoked bacon and egg brioche bun burger and wholemeal sourdough toast with in house preserves. The burger was tasty and filling while the toast was crunchy and hit the spot. The presentation was excellent. To top it all off, excellent friendly service and smooth, creamy coffee. Well done Holly Rayes, you've got yourself a regular!!!

So much potential in this little local cafe. I had breakfast here on their third day of opening, food could do with a teeny bit more flavour but it was very fresh, healthy and fast to come out. Their breakfast menu has a range to select from but if you're feeling a little hungry there is a selection of savoury and sweet baked goods which look and smell delicious. Their Iced Latte is amazing too and there is outdoor seating for the fur babies. Can not wait to come back in a few months when they are truly on their feet!
