Cheeky Boy Espresso

This place has been a pretty safe bet for me for about as long as it’s been open. The coffee is good, and the dishes for lunch are usually very creative and tasty. Prices are definitely on the higher side but for what you’re getting it’s not too bad! Service is usually quite fast as well. On this particular day we didn’t have the most keen waiters unfortunately but I have had great experiences with staff here before. All in all, on the strip this is definitely one of the best places for a lunch brunch meal!

I really like the coffee and food in this place but really struggle with the off-handed nature of the staff. When the male owner is here it’s better but it has a whole different feel when the older woman is in charge. She is at best brusque and my observation is that she puts the staff on edge. Today, she was in charge and it was just rudeness. I arrived and went to place my order. I greeted the chap at the PoS with “good morning” - no reply - instead he looked at me waiting for an order. I started with “may I have” and finished with “please” and he just mentioned a dollar amount. I paid and said “thank you” and he wordlessly handed me a numbered spoon. The older woman, brought my coffee, my breakfast and then cleared my table. Each time I said “thank you” but she turned and said nothing. I love the food here (4/5)but I’d remind them they are in hospitality and manners count. Otherwise change the name to Rude Boy.

Breakfast treat, My Breakfast at Cheeky boy was Soooo delicious, I ordered the Hot Cakes,( Ricotta hot cakes,berry coulis ,mascarpone and banana,) with Almond flat white coffee,perfect choice, first I thought it’s too much .then all gone .place was very busy with staff shortages in WA they managing well, well recommended.

An intentionally quality place. I had an excellent flat white takeaway from here. It took a while because they were extremely busy during the Jacaranda festival, but kept checking on me as I waited. Their food looks divine and I’d love to come back and have that sometime. But the customer service was very intentional and kind and my coffee was really good. No complaints here

The smoothie and crumpets were good, but the sausages and avo toast were forgettable. We were quick to get a table for a large group which we appreciated, but there was no guidance on how to order and we weren’t even given menus. The service pitiful otherwise, the older lady (manager?) was rude and none of our simple food requests (e.g. sauce on the side) made it through to the kitchen. The best part about this place is the location.
