Why it's worth checking out
Third Wheel Café offers breakfast, brunch, lunch, specialty coffee and takeaway from two Fremantle locations. The central Fremantle café is at 18 Collie Street and is described as a bigger space, with table bookings available. Its South Fremantle venue at 408 South Terrace has a beach-side café feel and welcomes walk-ins, giving visitors two different settings to choose from around Fremantle.
The menu includes a mix of familiar brunch options and more distinctive plates. Named highlights include hot-smoked salmon with greens and herbs in the Salmon Salad, mushrooms with truffle and soft eggs in Truffle Trouble, and Coco Smashed Avo, which combines smashed avocado with coconut and lime. There is also the plant-based Mushplant mushroom plate and French Touch, a brioche French toast served with berries. The café says it focuses on proper beans and generous brunches, alongside coffee and food for takeaway.
The venue’s identity is built around the idea of a “third place” between home and work: somewhere to pause, settle in and spend time alone or with other people. Its description makes room for solo visitors with a book as well as groups catching up, with an unhurried, relaxed approach rather than a formal dining atmosphere. The central Fremantle site supports bookings, while the South Fremantle location is set up for walk-ins.
Third Wheel Café suits a casual breakfast, brunch or lunch in Fremantle, whether you are meeting friends, taking a break with coffee or looking for somewhere to sit on your own. Both locations are in Fremantle, Perth, with the Collie Street café in central Fremantle and the South Terrace venue in South Fremantle. The café has a 4.7 Google rating from 52 reviews, offering an additional indication of its local reception.
