Why Choose Lawley's Bakery Cafe?

Lawley's has built a following of its own over two decades for its house-made sourdough and pies, paired with good coffee. The spacious, family-friendly setting with a back garden suits a relaxed breakfast or lunch, and vegan options, dine-in and delivery make it flexible for different occasions.

About Lawley's Bakery Cafe

Lawley's Bakery Cafe has been part of the Nedlands scene for about 20 years, and it sits somewhere between a classic bakery counter and a proper sit-down cafe. It's a family-owned place with the tagline "Tradition. It feels like home", and the room backs that up: spacious inside, with a back garden and a relaxed, family-friendly feel.

The baking is made in-house, and locals tend to talk about the sourdough and the pies. A beef, cheese and bacon pie with a coffee is a popular morning order, and the sausage rolls, vanilla slice and cinnamon rolls come up often too. If you'd rather sit down for a feed, there's a full breakfast and lunch menu, including a brekky wrap and a cooked-breakfast burger that one local called a generous serve. Vegan options are on offer, and you can dine in, take away or have it delivered.

Staff are one of the things people mention first. We hear the team here are friendly and attentive, and one visitor was won over by the young fella who served them. Value gets a nod as well, with larger portions and fair prices for a cafe meal.

To be fair, opinion on the baked goods isn't unanimous. A few folks have found some of the sweet items on the dry side, so the savoury pies and the cafe plates are the safer bet if you're choosing for the first time.

Getting there is easy. There's a free car park, free street parking nearby, and a wheelchair-accessible entrance. Cards and tap-to-pay are taken. It's open every day, with hours that suit an early start, though it's worth checking before you head in.

If you're in Nedlands and after a pie, a loaf of sourdough or a coffee and a sit in the garden, this is a comfortable spot to land.
