I went here on a date night and I must say I had a pretty memorable evening with my girlfriend. They arranged something special like I said and we had a lot of fun. Great food, great service.
Early morning in Perth and our hotel happened to be situated near one of the highest rated coffee places in town. Getting up early to try it out before we left to start our day's hard work, I was super excited for it. Situated down an alleyway near a residential complex, it had an almost Melbourne vibe to it. Arriving at entry time, we were of course the first ones there. Decor was unique, with mismatched tables and chairs amongst a rustic brick setting, unlike anything I've seen in the eastern states (or maybe I really just don't get out enough).
Friendly staff and relaxing. It’s great to have a spot you can perch for a read of the paper or meet a friend. It’s BYO food which is quite unique. Definitely worth stopping by.
Pony Express was a little hidden cafe when I was walking down Mayfair Lane. If it weren't for the signs I would've walked right past it.
I ordered a latte to go, which cost $4.50. The cafe was cozy with quite a lot of seats and has an eclectic fee. The coffee was quite good, though served a little bit too hot which is a pet peeve of mine. They also sell coffee beans at $36/kg which I might try next time!
Perth coffee is a hit and miss affair... and pricey!!! But this quirky little gem is a coffee hideout for those people who love a consistently good cup. The service is friendly, knowledgable and the baristas have a knack of meeting you once and remembering your order from then on. The tiny space is littered with prized collections of toys and tools - like someone dug up an old sandpit and put the treasures on display.
These guys have applied for a small bar licence... if they can do booze like they do coffee, all I can say is cheers!
Great coffees and I go so often till the owner recognise me! Every cup is well made! I love there latte, affogato and mocha. We sometime gets biscuit treats. Bring your own lunch there and enjoy a cup if coffee while you there! Cosy place.
Wanted to come here last time when I visited Perth, but it was already closed when I got here. This time it was open. It was the first time in a coffeeshop this visit, and the prices were a shocker. $4,50 for a coffee sounds insane, but I suppose it's similar prices in the whole of Perth so I can't blame Poly Express O for that. I got a soy chai (I know, it's not really a coffee). The flavour was okay and they made it from sticky chai leaves (by the looks of it). The milk was very hot, way to hot for me, I burned my tongue. But I know a lot of coffeeshops make their take-away coffees a bit hotter because people don't drink it straight away. Also I once heard that people in Perth like their coffee hotter than people in Melbourne. So I can forgive them for that. The milk froth wasn't great, very bubbly/lots of air. In fact, I had another coffee with someone at Bagels & Beans on Hay Street, and she told me she used to get cofee at Pony Express O, but when she moved from normal milk to soy milk she didn't like the way the soy milk was frothed at Pony Express O and therefore she is getting her coffee at Bagels & Beans now.
Service was friendly. Don't want to score too low because I had a take-away and not even a real coffee. Would definitely give them another chance with a 'real' coffee, sit down and have it in a cup, so I can judge better.
Good coffee and hot chocolate! Small venue but nice. Service is very good and quick compared to other coffee shops in the area. Would recommend.
Great coffee, fast service and friendly staff. A bit out of the way, as its on a back street, but worth the walk if you work or live in West Perth
Hidden gem, they make it strong, fun setting in an old horse stable down a lane way. Grab a little snack at Joes Bakery, sit at Pony and enjoy your brought food with their excellent coffee. Best in West Perth.
Possibly the coolest coffee joint in Perth! Consistently great coffee by one of the loveliest ladies you’ll meet. Keep up the great work Wendy!
I attended a function at this venue recently and could have enjoyed myself more. This space has an atmosphere that encourages folks to converse and relax. This is a good place to be.
I can't express enough how good the coffee is here!! This hidden gem of a coffee shop has a great vibe and has a pretty cool seating area where you can relax. It feels very comfortable walking in and most of the time you coffee gets remembered if you come back - which makes you feel more than just a customer buying coffee!
Highly recommend going here and trying this coffee, and then just keep going back!
Make sure you find this place in West Perth if you love your coffee, it’s tucked away down a lane way and in an old stable. Wendy the owner is always up for a chat and makes the best single origin coffee in West Perth IMHO.

This is a hidden gem and one of my favourites in the city. The atmosphere is great here and so is the coffee! Enjoyed a perfect flat white as well as tea while spending my morning working at a cozy corner. So glad I found this place!
Best coffee in West Perth.
Garrett and his staff do a great job here. Great coffee and a chat every time. A little hidden off the beaten track, but well worth looking for and finding.
Great little cafe hidden in an alleyway. Coffee made here is absolutely fantastic and the people working are all lovely. The service is pretty quick as well and you don't have to wait too long for a cuppa ;)
Hands down the best coffee I've had in Perth. Staff are wonderful and so friendly, lovely venue with excellent atmosphere. And AMAZING COFFEE!
