Now Book It has rounded up the top 12 places for your best breakfast, so rise and shine!
1. The Little Banksia
This is a great little neighbourhood gem in the heart of Kensington, named after the Australian shrub that plays an important role in the local food chain. Aptly named if you ask us! With a menu that changes with the season, you’re in for special steel cut oat porridge days, kale and corn hotcake mornings or even indulgent buttermilk fried chicken burger breakfasts.
Coffee is from one of Perth’s well loved coffee roasters Leftfield, and environmentally conscious diners will be happy to know all organic wastes are from food scraps to napkins and coffee grounds are composted.

And since you’re already lounging by the river, consider staying past breakfast for something sweet. Their vanilla and white chocolate panna cotta turns heads!
