About Dôme Café - Bassendean

Skip the standard cafe floor and take a seat inside a restored vintage railway carriage right in the heart of Bassendean. Regulars treat the carriage booths as the premier morning perch for a hot cappuccino, while others head up the winding staircase to the quiet mezzanine library to read or tick through work with reliable Wi-Fi. Downstairs moves fast—plates of fluffy scones and morning brekky feeds roll out of the kitchen with zero fuss.

  • Vintage Carriage Dining: Booths set inside an authentic, refurbished train carriage offer a unique setting for coffee and quick bites.
  • Upstairs Mezzanine Library: A winding staircase leads to a quiet second-story mezzanine with bookshelves and space to study or relax.
