Coffee / Salt by the Sea

Coffee / Salt by the Sea, North Fremantle

April 2014

Rated 6: somewhere to get coffee

We were heading off for a day's geocaching -- and the GPS would not turn on... So the mood was gloomy. We decided to stop, have coffee, take stock of our options.

We stopped at Salt by the Sea, at North Fremantle.

Salt is a bar, next to a restaurant. The restaurant was closed, too early in the morning, we would have selected the less formal bar, anyway.

Our standard choice is, "coffee and cake". There was no sign of cake. Not very clear where to order, either. We asked a waitress.

Sorry, no cake, we'll bring you something, we were told. "Something" turned out to be several small danish pastries. Quite nice but nothing special.

We enjoyed our view of the beach as we ate, drank and installed a geocaching app to a smartphone.

Salt is a family-friendly bar and cafe for the in-crowd. A sign, "Order here" -- or a visible person to take orders -- would be helpful for those who are less in touch with the cafe.

No need to go out of your way. But if you are passing -- a pleasant enough place for a coffee and cake by the beach.
