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.

Before you head over

Practical tips on seating, library spaces, and parking for your visit to Dôme Café Bassendean.

  • Secure Train Carriage Seating Early

    To dine inside the vintage railway carriage, head into the booths early during peak morning and lunch hours, as this distinct seating area is especially popular with families and casual visitors.

  • Head Upstairs for Reading and Study Sessions

    If you plan to read, study, or work upstairs, choose a spot in the quiet library mezzanine, but be mindful that ambient cafe noise can carry up from the lower floor when downstairs gets packed.

  • Allow Extra Time for Peak Parking

    While convenient spaces directly in front of the venue can fill up due to shared supermarket traffic, additional parking is readily available in the surrounding bays.
