Wilbur’s Café Bar
Great coffee, good food in a relaxed atmosphere. Love the specials which change regularly. Pepperoni pizza TDF!!!
Long neglected, the local shopping precinct in Hackett is a rather desolate wasteland of bad chinese restaurants and unidentifiable stores with 80s band names in their titles. The only exception is Wilbur’s, an inviting respite from the winter cold. Having tried both, I can report the beer was cold and delicious, they serve Little Creatures and White Rabbit on tap. And that the coffee was good-but-not-great, a touch burnt perhaps but above average for suburban cafés.

Family run, very friendly, attentive staff, cheap but tasty meals (great breakfast bacon) and good honest coffee. Good value for your breakfast dollar.

Had a flat white and a steak sandwich. Food was okay but not overly flavourful but the coffee was terrible. I have had better instant.
