Elixir
Functioning as a coffee shop, a cafe and as a small-batch coffee roaster, Elixir’s coffee is made with beans roasted in-house, available to take home in retail packs for the at-home baristas out there. While the cafe may give off the usual minimalist and industrial vibe, the staff remain warm and chatty. Their coffee menu doesn’t stop at espresso with V60, cold brew, iced coffee options and batch brew also on offer. And, for the non-caffeine drinkers out there, their famous hot chocolate is definitely well worth a try. One of Perth’s best coffee shops of 2024!
