Breaks is not on the popular Cafe Strip but just around the corner in High Street. It's more of a local spot frequented by uni students. The excellent all day breakfast menu is very reasonably priced. It’s got a well loved, slightly worn, feeling about it as well as the legendary staircase to nowhere. Very good service, value for money for breakfast and lunch. Very good place to read a book or newspapers, make use of the fast wifi or meet for a chat. Lovely people working there too.
Dined in 6/1/17
Cute little tucked away place that offers excellent dine in and take away services. Prices are reasonable and portion sizes were decent.
I ordered the breakfast bruschetta and a latte and (even in a busy period) they arrived quickly.
The latte was made very well, the balance of froth and coffee was near perfect and coffee was super smooth, usually I add 1 or 2 sugars to my coffee but this was so great I wouldn't want to alter it in any way.
The breakfast bruschetta was beautiful! The multi grain bread that was used was a nice alternative to the usual white bread I'm used to receiving. The mix of tomato, feta, pesto, onion and sun dried tomato left a fresh after taste which encouraged you to eat more. A full rasher of bacon was used and was cooked nicely. The poached egg, to me, was perfect having been cooked well and having a slightly runny yolk.
The only down fall was my mate had to wait 5-10 minutes after I received my food to receive his, however everyone makes mistakes and after being busy it is understandable that the front of house staff forgot. It was well handled by the ladies that were working and his food was good.
I would definitely dine here again when in Fremantle next.
Awesome place that seems frozen in time. Menu hasn’t changed in years and to be honest, it doesn’t need to. Large-ish menu that’ll pretty much cover any brunch craving. Had the chilli burger today and it was yums. Only downside is that on a stinking hot day, it can get really uncomfortable down the back close to the kitchen.
Amazing price and amazing food! Great coffee and a music shop next door. Its my go to for breakfast, lots of options and a lot of good quality food
Convince combined with great well priced food and coffee in the heart of freo. Friendly atmosphere service was on point
Perfect place to get away from the busy cappuccino strip in freo
Such a nice place! Went there for my 21st birthday lunch, great service and great food. There was quite a lot of us and we didn't have to wait long. Will be back again
Revisited after the redecoration and now the décor is much nicer. More the new old freo than the old old freo, which means bright and cheery with a touch of old. They have opened the upstairs area so more room. The food is the same, solid and warming. Reasonable portions. The Three Egg omelette with Chorizo and onion is lovely. The coffee is a fine.
I have been to this place twice. I love the food and the wait staffs are really nice. But my only problem would be food wait time. Twice my food took quite sometime to come but the food would be worth the wait if u arent starving 😳
Honesly the type of place where when I'm in Freo I want to try somewhere new and cool, but I always just end up sectretly wanting to come back here, so I do! Super reliable and the staff are nice and genuine. I love the atmosphere on a sunday morning when they sometimes have a gentle band playing in the doorway. This place is also quite big so you can always find a seat and not feel cramped. A huge menu with all the usuals. The breakfast bruschetta is awesome.
Brunch with the misses, eggs benedict and beans on toast. Couldn't fault the food and the service was friendly and prompt. Will be back for one of their burgers for sure.

So we have past this place numerous times and for some reason never looked in. We finally went in and had a brekky . The restaurant is large and is hard to tell from the front how big it is, a real Freo vibe 😍Service
Spot on and prices are very reasonable. We had a latte, eggs on toast they were cooked really well, the breaks baked beans
We're full of flavour and great value . We would try this place agin for sure !
I have never tried brekkie at Breaks, but have been for coffee and cake, which was pleasant outside under the umbrellas. So thought I would give their brekkie a go. Service was at the table, and the friendly waitress took my order of long Mac topped up and an eggs benedict. I was surprised they were licensed, and because it was a Friday decided to order their Bloody Mary. Coffee arrived quickly and was good, and the eggs benedict weren’t too far behind. Loved their toasted bread; very nice and different to what I have tried elsewhere. Eggs poached perfectly and the sauce was good too. The Bloody Mary, well what can I say, it was delicious. Nice and spicy, just how I like them. It was the perfect way to start my day. Will definitely be back.
