*Rating is a 3.5*Elixir feels like it’s been around forever and has always done a decent coffee. The cafe itself is not particularly appealing to sit and enjoy breakfast (I find it quite cold/industrial in its feel, menu is fairly limited too). Staff are polite, I enjoy some good take away coffee with organic fruit toast when you’re on the run.

I'm a semi-regular customer at Elixir, get my caffeine shots about twice a week from here. The coffee is always good and the guys are always a delight

Elixir Cafe is renown for its good coffee and good food. And so it should be. We were there again recently and the same standard was all there. Friendly and professional staff who know their stuff, great coffee and excellent, breakfast food. There is always a good selection of newspapers for the older generation - who actually read newspapers - to enjoy!

We stayed with the 'old standby' of smashed avocado and eggs on toast. Beautiful. Our friends had scrambled eggs and once again the quality was high.

Elixir Cafe can get busy at peak times, but the short wait is all worthwhile. Good parking at the Chelsea Village car park.

Highly recommended.

Great coffee, and very kind staff! (Thanks so much to the generous waitress/ barista who dropped off a gift-wrapped keep cup to me after mine broke).

I've heard about Elixir's great coffee a lot and finally had a chance to try today. Their coffee didnt disappoint me. It's my kind of coffee, smooth and not bitter. Chicken, Avocado & Tomato Toastie was tasty and got enough filling. Peach Muffin was cold (not room temperature). I wonder why they didnt offer to warm it up (I didnt realised until I left). Service was good. I definitely would go back for coffee.

Great coffee and a nice casual atmosphere. The house blend is very tasty and there was a nice selection of sandwiches and snacks but I didn't get to try any this time. I'll be recommending this place to my uni friends.

This has been my favourite place to get coffee for years. Every time I take that first sip I ask myself why I don't go there more often! The staff are very friendly and passionate, and the coffee is exquisite. Compared to some my level of coffee knowledge is completely amateur, but I do know the good stuff when I taste it.

Went here today for some quick breakfast close to uni with my boyfriend. I got the eggs florentine with salmon and he got the eggs benedict with bacon. We didn't get any coffee even though it boasts the coffee specialist title on the door, but I bet you they make great coffee because the aroma when you walk through the door is so good. Our meals were as good as it gets: good flavours and they didn't entirely lather the food with sauce. My only thing is that I struggled to cut through the toast with my knife, but that's not their fault. Great atmosphere and music, the walls display creative paintings you can buy to support the artist, and the staff are very customer centric. I would go again to try the coffee or have a quick feed.

Good take-away coffee. Zero bitter after taste. Nice vibe, reasonable service (friendly rather than fast) adequate range of hot all-day 'breakfast' food.

Went here for a late lunch with a friend, arrived at about 2:30 but the kitchen was closed. They had a great array of bagels, sandwiches,  gourmet sausage rolls and quiches. We ordered the salmon bagel, sausage roll, caramel slice, mixed berry smoothie, citron presse juice, iced late and long mac. The service was fantastic, kind, lively and engaging. Was flexible in my order (e.g. apple instead of mint in the juice), and recommended food options when we found out that the kitchen was closed. The actual coffee was delicious, if a little more bitter than I was used to. There is free wifi, that is actually fast!. The service was also fast. 

Overall all, the staff definitely made the experience, only problem is it shut a little early.

Superb delight. Something sweet, savory and bitter. My coffee(picolo) was spot on, flavourful but not overpowering with a slight bitterness cutting through.

Open early and reasonable prices, friendly staff. It's worth at least a pop in to try it yourself. Highly recommend.

You can pay a lot of money for individualised service. I didn't. Just as we sat down after ordering the coffee machine had a spat and only black was the option. Much as I hated to I tried the espresso. Obviously not hard core as it was a struggle for me. We knew when the Machine was back online as people filled the place like it was on Twitter. The staff offered, and I accepted, my flat white on the house. So, after 4 shots of coffee I was drunk on good vibes, Billy Connolly art works and great service.

Incredible coffee! I haven't tried their food but the coffee here is really consistent, well balanced and well made. They sell their beans to take home if you prefer as well. The staff are lovely and are happy to chat to make sure you are matched to the right product to successfully brew at home.

Best muffins in Perth. Flavour combinations can vary but they always work! Not the stock standard muffin you would find elsewhere. It's crispy edges and chewy but soft centre makes you want to keep coming back for more. Yum!

Good food, but pricey. Come here for the coffee. Came here for a post-birthday breakfast. My cappuccino was pretty good, though boyfriend wasn't too thrilled about his latte. Had the bruschetta, and while it was good and looked beautiful, it's way out of my normal student budget. Don't think I'd come back to eat here unless I wanted to splurge. Would probably only come here for the coffee.

A hidden gem.... I've been here for breakfast twice in the past week because this place ticks every box: amazing food, great coffee, good music, plenty of parking. They are coffee specialists and will select a blend that will compliment the food you order. I especially like the more private room out the back. It has a comfortable range of seating - both couch and chair. The regular crowd is young, hip, professional, arty. The staff are friendly, helpful and enthusiastic. I can't recommend this place highly enough for quality cafe food.

Great coffee. It's great to see that the heart of the old Zekka crew (Fitz, Tim and the man over the grill, Levi) live on within the Elixir team. Coffee is consistently excellent (but of course) and the food is similarly splendid. Only downside is the location - which makes it difficult for me to visit regularly.

Great coffee. I drive 5 km out of my way for this coffee. It has a full flavour that lingers in the mouth afterwards. I've never experienced inconsistency like one reviewer has said (and I see many other reviewers say its very consistent). I need to let the guys know I like my coffee hot and they are happy to do so. I also spotted a high chair out the back dining area the other day so not sure why one reviewer said they aren't child friendly. The guys do get busy and sometimes I have to wait. But that's a good thing I think.

Always waiting for monday. Elixir probably consistently serves one of THE BEST coffees in Perth. They roast their own beans and I have to say, every cup of Elixir lingers on your palate and leaves you satisfied and looking for more. That's why I'm always waiting for Monday, after an enjoyable weekend, Elixir is the best pick me up for the long week ahead!

Gorgeous little interior filled with interesting knick knacks and decorations. Menu is small but not limited with a varied range of plates for breakfast and lunch. Location is actually next door to Chelsea's Pizza (originally thought it was in Chelsea Court). Lunch was beautifully done but their rep for amazing coffee isn't too amazing to be honest. Food and service are great though. Definitely my new lunch spot.

Come here, seriously... DO IT!!. Often a little tender after my Chiropractic session upstairs I find solace at Elixer. I usually order one of there gorgeous coffees and something sweet but there food is also delicious and reasonably priced.

Best Coffee, Best Staff. This is my local and I'm spoiled with the quality of coffee they produce. I can wander in at anytime and the staff are friendly, ready for a chat and really keen to describe their latest blend of coffee. Grab yourself a chair out in the sun and enjoy a cold filtered coffee for something a little different!

Unique beans. The taste of the beans was amazing, so unique from they're own special blends.
The coffee was so fruity, with scents of citrus, peaches and marmalade. Froth was a little thin for a latte.. but it was the barista's style. Cute cups too!

Muffins to die for!. I would rate this as THE best coffee place in Perth, I've been coming here since they opened and only had one off day. The coffee is quite smooth, completely rid of that bitter taste most others have, and has a delightful caramel after taste.

The best part about Elixir is that unlike many of the other cafes that serve quality coffee, their food is actually edible and quite delicious! Their muffins are the best I have tasted - full of fruit and nut combinations - but sadly they run out quite early on in the day. :(

Just a heads up it is cash only ! (Elixir please get an EFTPOS machine!)

These guys can come across a liitle uber cool, but they know their coffee and it's because they are working hard and concentrating! I know my coffee and know my food... Best coffee and best muffins around. A little bit more effort to make new or sparadic customers feel like regulars would go a miss, after all just because we dont go in everyday doesn't mean we don't want to! Maybe we just can't but when we can we drive out of our way to get there... If you want good coffee it's worth the journey :-)
