Busy place, definitely can sit and talk if that is what you want. I often just grab a takeaway. Can't comment on food, coffee is a mild roast.
Excellent cafe' very attractive decor, seating is looking over St George's Terrace, the all day breakfast of Poached Eggs & Bacon on toast with butter and Latte' was $10, you can't beat that for value, and furthermore, being a bit of a connoisseur of eggs and bacon, I will venture to say it was one of the best I have had, so thank you very much and I will definitely be back !
A small but cozy place and right opposite my hotel. Ordered the big breakfast and a chai latte, and took a seat. The chai latte arrived a few minutes later and was nice and creamy. The big breakfast had some great ham and hash browns. I would've liked the bacon crispy but then that was my fault in not specifying that in the order. The baked beans were not too shabby either.
Would recommend for a quick breakfast.
Excellent service, great young boys with the best value food in the city. I would recommend this place to all. Go in and give it a try. They will make you feel welcome.
This place is ok - nothing special but certainly great value for money! There is an offer for all day eggs of your choice and coffee for $10. You can't beat that price in the CBD. They have black leather seats and booths which is an ok setting. I love that they had Frankie magazine available for me to read whilst I ate. I left feeling satisfied and ready to start the day!
I work just down the terrace from Empire. Have walked past it every day for the past year. Met a friend in here this afternoon for lunch, I'll be back!! The staff were friendly, the coffee was phenomenal, made perfectly, which is hard to find in Perth sometimes! I had a salmon salad for lunch, flavour was well balanced and it was a good size for the price. Will definitely be back, two thumbs up
BEST COFFEE IN PERTH!!! Re.... BEST COFFEE IN PERTH!!!
Recently taken over in September 2014, empire espresso is even better than before. The coffee is reasonably priced and really friendly service too! I wouldn't go anywhere else. Hands down 100% better than LOWDOWN. Great job guys! Will definitely be coming back.
Loved it.. Stopped in for an early morning t/a coffee and loved the service and coffee so much that I came back for lunch!
Good service, great coffee and generous food for the price.
Great CBD Coffee!. It seems so standard these days for cafes in the CBD to serve below average coffee that is always burnt or lukewarm.
EMPIRE ESPRESSO is a refreshing change where they serve great coffee and most importantly consistent day to day!
Coffee is their hero here but they do have a great little menu for lunch or breakfast, recommended to try their Banana Bread!!

Coffee ++++. Justin and the team not only make fantastic coffee but quick and friendly service are served with any item.
One of the quickest service I have seen.., nice food and breakfast available all day...10$ breakfast with coffee is the best
Good coffee, good prices ;)
Best place, good food, good coffee, and the paper. What else do you need? friendly service, yep they've got that too!
Coffee is average but the food (particularly the breakfast) keeps me coming back. Would recommend.
A great spot for a well priced breakky. The coffee is good too
