About Cioccolato Espresso

Tucked along Ardross Street, this neighborhood hangout pairs pulled Blacklist espresso with leafy, pocketed seating zones. Regulars cycle in straight off the Swan River foreshore for breakfast burritos and quiet morning catch-ups. Around back, a plant-lined alleyway hides quiet open-air tables, while an adjoining tea room doubles as a gallery lined with an artist's original paintings. The drink menu goes well beyond the standard flat white—think hazelnut-spiked iced chocolates and mugs of rich hot chocolate crowned with a scoop of ice cream.

  • Botanical Alleyway Seating: Outdoor tables tucked down a leafy passageway filled with potted greenery for relaxed morning catch-ups.
  • Artist-Lined Tea Room: An indoor dining nook lined with original paintings, ideal for quiet conversation and remote study.
  • Indulgent Chocolate Bar: Rich hot chocolates served with ice cream alongside cold hazelnut iced chocolate options.

Why Visit Cioccolato Espresso

Why locals and visitors choose Cioccolato Espresso for post-ride recharges, peaceful catch-ups, and botanical charm.

  • Foreshore Recovery Under Shady Trees

    Guests enjoy peaceful mornings sitting in the leafy outdoor setting beneath the jacarandas after cycling or walking along the river foreshore.

    Coffee and breakfast this morning after a beautiful morning ride along the river from the Raffles was superb.

  • Warm, Generous Hospitality

    Friendly staff welcome guests with proactive hospitality, table accommodation, and attentive care.

    Within a few minutes it was happily cleaned up and I was given another coffee which they refused to take payment for.

  • Art-Lined Tearoom for Catch-Ups

    A dedicated indoor vintage tearoom featuring artist-painted walls provides an intimate, charming setting for shared conversations and meetings.

    We met the man who has created all the paintings in the tea room this particular time, so kind and we got to learn a few things about his skills and paintings.

  • Accommodating Gathering Spaces

    Versatile partitioned seating areas allow friends and colleagues to comfortably settle in for productive discussions or unhurried visits.

    The lovely staff offered us seating options and explained the benefits for myself and a colleague - we wanted to discuss business.
