Dome Cafe, Port Coogee

Most people would be familiar with the Dome Cafe chains scattered around WA. We recently visited the Port Coogee location for a cuppa and cake and were pleasantly surprised.

The visit is worth it just for the location! What a view! Port Coogee is impressive in itself, but the Dome cafe has prime position over the marina and beyond. It was a delight to relax with our afternoon tea and take in the spectacular views of the ocean.

There is ample parking, though be warned, it can get very busy particularly in the summer months as beach-goers flock in their hundreds to this popular swimming spot – adjacent the cafe.

Patrons are spoiled for choice with seating with so many options with almost all of them offering million dollar water views. There is a lovely outdoor section both at the front of the cafe and on the jetty for alfresco dining. Most tables have shade.

The cafe is also a multi level establishment with both stairs and an elevator to the upper level. There is plenty of seating on both levels and again the outlook is amazing. The second floor boasts floor to ceiling windows that optimize the view. What better way to enjoy a meal!

The day we went it was quite busy so there was a bit of a wait and even a line developing at one point. However we received our meals efficiently and the staff were friendly and the service pleasant.

Most would be familiar with the Dome menu, so no surprises there. Our coffees were spot on and cakes went down a treat. The meals we saw looked fresh and tasty and overall it was a pleasant experience.
