Open menuWhy it's worth checking out
John Street Café is a relaxed café in Cottesloe, set among established pine trees at 37 John Street and within easy reach of Cottesloe Beach. The setting is described as tranquil, breezy and slightly tucked away, offering a quieter alternative to busier beachside spots.
The café serves breakfast and lunch, with walk-ins welcome and outdoor seating available. Gluten-free options are offered, and the venue is kid-friendly, making it suitable for a casual family meal, a catch-up over brunch or a low-key stop before or after visiting the beach. The website does not provide a detailed menu, so there are no specific dishes to highlight here.
John Street Café is open daily and on public holidays from 7:00 am to 3:00 pm. During Sculptures by the Sea, it extends its hours on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays until 6:30 pm. Parking is available on Forrest Street and Napier Street, with beach access nearby. The café also welcomes bookings and offers gift vouchers, while its outdoor area and easy-going setting make it a practical choice for breakfast, brunch or lunch in Cottesloe.
