Best French Bakery in Western Australia

"When talking Fremantle food there would be no list without Bread In Common. Prior to its establishment, the Fremantle food scene was about BYO pizza and pasta (not that there is anything wrong with that) but Bread in Common upped the ante when they came along with their menu inspired by locally sourced, seasonal produce based all around—you know it—bread. Their long tables and shared menu make them the perfect spot to break bread with your friends."

"For a slice of delicious Malaysian dining Two Hand Noodle Shop is a Como fave amongst the locals. We highly recommend booking ahead as it’s always busy, thanks to basically nothing costing more than $15 and the one-way trip to flavour town."

"The Berrigan’s got a few winners to go with their decently-priced standard menu. $16 and under will get you vege nachos, fish and chips and peri peri calamari to name a few, while $15 will get you a steak (Monday), garlic prawns (Tuesday) or a parmi (Thursday), plus kids eat free on Wednesdays. 52 Berrigan Dve, South Lake"

"Eclectic and communal, anything goes at this Perth brunch spot. Not only does Sayers Sister have some of the best brunches in Perth, but it is also open Friday and Saturday evenings for endless wines and sangrias. Along with the interesting décor, same goes for the menu, like the lime and tequila salmon gravlax as an add on the side to your breakfast."
