Perched right on the fringes of Pinjarra, Café Chérie is a fab patisserie that has quickly become a favourite coffee spot for families seeking a blend of sophistication and family-friendly fun. This charming new café (opened August 2023) is a breath of fresh air for those craving a taste of France in the Peel region.
As you step inside Café Chérie, you’re greeted by the aroma of freshly baked goodies – the cabinet is brimming with everything from tarts to pastries and cakes.
The interior is lovely, with plenty of tables surrounded by lush indoor plants. A fireplace will make it cosy in winter.
On this sunny day, most people were taking full advantage Café Chérie’s pièce de resistance, the deck. Shade sails covered some of the tables. There were also families on the picnic tables and sitting on rugs on the lawn.
We enjoyed soaking up the early spring sun while sipping on a freshly brewed coffee (and indulging in a little cake!). Whether you prefer a croissant, crepes or a classic croque madame, their breakfast and lunch menus have plenty of choice. For the kiddos, Café Chérie has high chairs and colouring sheets.
Kids can explore the shaded wooden fort in the playground, which promises lots of adventures.
There’s plenty of slides and climbing ropes to keep them entertained. Parents can relax on the deck, keeping a watchful eye on their little ones over a coffee.
I loved the berry cake. It was great to see so many gluten-free options. Little Chef gave Café Chérie’s buttery, flaky croissant the big thumbs up.
Service was very friendly, we did wait about 30 minutes for our drinks (hence no pic of my coffee, I was desperado for it, by the time my mug arrived!). I did grab a pic of Mr H’s iced chocolate. The new spot is very popular, and we visited at the beginning of a long weekend.
Café Chérie is very close to Ranger Red’s Zoo. Whether you’re looking for a cool new brunch spot, a place to enjoy a leisurely lunch, or simply a lovely setting to indulge in coffee and cake, Cafe Cherie ticks all the boxes. Bon appétit!
