Agree with the other positive reviews here. Especially impressed with the menu. Had an ultrasound nearby then popped here for a refreshment and had to order food and wasn’t disappointed. Could do with better layout for seating but food made up for it. Toilets good too.

Not only is The Buttery a café, it also sells homeware pieces, pieces you can mix and match, it was interesting to browse through. The menu was great! The first thing I thought when I saw it was, homely. The Bushman’s Breakfast looked like something your Nana would rustle up to fill you up for the day. Ms. D decided on poached eggs for her dish and they were perfectly oozy. There was a hash brown on the dish also and it was delicious! There were generous serves of everything on this dish and Ms. D was barely able to finish it. Next to arrive were the Salmon Benedict’s. Another delicious dish. Oh my, it was perfect! The potato rosti was fabulous, rather than mashed potato, it was shredded potato and I loved the hint seasoning as it didn’t change the flavour of the rosti too much. The rosti was definitely the hero of the dish for me… as if you couldn’t tell! My eggs were also perfectly cooked and the salmon was fresh and plentiful.

Sensational… I have very high café standards and after 20 years experiencing the high quality cafes of inner city Sydney and surrounding fringes, I have been bitterly disappointed with very bad Perth northern suburb cafes. Time after time I get charged through the nose for«off the shelf» bread, overheated, over-extracted coffee & a plethora of other culinary disappointments. Not so at Butterys — these guys are THE place to go from Joondalup onwards when heading North up the coast. Superb coffee and original, inspiring and WELLPRICED food. They are a slick outfit and have restored my faith in the Perth café scene. 10⁄10

Such a fresh idea for joondalup! I have been here for a few coffees but went for breakfast this time and was not disappointed. They were extremely busy and when we walked in it was chaos but we found a table and once we ordered everything was smooth! The coffees were fab made with love! And the breakfast was well worth the money, I wish joondalup had a whole café strip of different places.

Love the food and have been here more than once but the service needs to improve. Greet customers when they come in, smile, eye contact just the basics I expect when going out for a meal

On their first week open I came here quite a few times for their coffee. It was so amazingly smooth. I don’t know what happened. I have had 2 bad coffees from here now which seemed burnt or bitter so I get the chai latte when we do the coffee run at work. Everyone at work raves about it so I might give it another go but the chai is good too. The cakes and slices looking amazing. With a name like ‘buttery’ I can’t imagine they would be too healthy so I’ll just keep looking at them for now. The homewares store attached is run by the mum(the daughter and son run the café) and it has some quirky trinkets and nice gifts. I’ve bought a few from there. They sell the glass house candle range so that’s a plus for me. She always has time for a chat too while you’re waiting for you’re coffee.

It’s nice to have a good breakfast option in the Joondalup area. We stumbled across The Buttery after reading another positive review and weren’t disappointed. Really friendly service and a point of difference is the complimentary toast with whipped butter and jam they bring out while you wait for your meal. Both times I’ve been I’ve had the banana bacon French toast which is what it sounds like served with maple syrup, pistachios and fruit garnish. Delicious! That costs $ 17.80, which is about standard, while bacon and eggs with a hash brown is about $ 15. The adjoining homewares store is nice too!

When i saw The Buttery in Joondalup i was skeptical… Joondalup Isn’t exactly known for gourmet cafes… However i follow the ‘Breakfast in Perth” instagram and some breakfast posts looked amazzzzing! Me and my boyfriend went this week and it was… ok. I didn’t love it and i didn’t hate it. The staff were a little odd if I’m being honest, not overly friendly. Also no one greeted us as we walked in, i think it’s a pretty important and easy thing to do however they were all pretty socially awkward so we’ll just leave it at that. I got the Muesli… un-toasted muesli with berry compote and milk. not amazing and not horrible just average. I could make it at home. My boyfriend got the French Toast which had a little more«wow factor» …Thick pieces of french toast topped with bacon, maple syrup and rock-melon…he liked it but it got a little sickly. The coffee was… da da ddummmm… BURNT! wow! It’s also Vittoria and i don’t mean to sound like a coffee snob(well maybe i am but there’s worse things to be in life!) Anyway it’s definitely not my PREFERRED coffee choice. All in all it was an ok place with pleasant enough food however i won’t be going back.

The Buttery is fresh and modern, at the bottom of an office building on Shenton Ave — just near to Joondalup hospital. I think the lovely café has given the hospital workers a great alternative to canteen food — as they were walking across the street in droves. There is a covered alfresco area. Inside there are exposed bricks and pretty floral upholstery, the mod fit out gives The Buttery a feel of a café near Perth’s Inner suburbs. I loved it. Before ordering I also had a wander around the homeware section. There are some lovely gits for all occasions. I made a mental note they stock the Glasshouse Candle range, as I love those! On the counter were some delicious looking cakes. In the chillier cabinet were lots of fresh looking wraps, croissants and other fresh food to take away. I decided to have my regular Chai Latte along with a special off the blackboard — the Italian Omelette($ 15.50). The omelette was perfect. It was filled with mushroom, salami, ham and tomato. It also came with a well sized potato rosti and side salad. The rosti was buttery and just a little crispy. I loved it. Since the rosti wasn’t mentioned on the board I felt like I’d got a little bonus. It was a good sized meal, super fresh and great value for money. I utterly adored The Buttery café. It is a fabulous spot for breakfast(all day), coffee and cake, brunch and lunch.

Friendly service and yummy food. Lots of gluten-free cakes/biscuits for those who need it. Nice alfresco area and even has a small craft/gift shop. Frequented by hospital staff and office workers during the week, residents during the weekend.
