In a city that is filled with enough cafes to service a large army, hidden away in a corner of West End is the quintessential and quirky Three Monkeys Cafe . So why go there instead of anywhere else? Simply put, it's fun.



I realised recently that while I'd been many, many times my wife had not. So we piled in the car and drove over. Parking is not always the easiest thing to find as the streets fill up quickly (always a good sign) but it's worth parking a little further away and enjoying a little walk while you drink in the natural charm of West End.

The menu includes a great selection of drinks (coffees, smoothies, hot chocolates, teas, juices, soft drinks and their famous Chai) and food that ranges from scones, muffins and cakes to more hearty meals like chilli con carne, enchiladas, and filos. The service is quick and friendly and while it can get pretty busy, especially late on a weekend night, you rarely feel rushed or sense the staff are stressed.

After ordering your food you have to find a table, which can sometimes be a feat when it's busy but it's such an interesting place to look at you don't mind strolling through. The walls are covered in pictures and paintings from all over the world (with a definite Mediterranean-Baltic skew ).

Combined with the soft lighting, low ceilings and eclectic collection of chairs, benches and sitting cushions the artwork helps create a relaxed and fun atmosphere that feels like you're hanging out at a friend's apartment. This is helped by a selection of boardgames that are available to be played at your table should you so desire.



So if you're looking for an reasonably inexpensive date or just a place to hang out with friends Three Monkeys is a must on your list. It's located at 58 Mollison St, West End and is open from 9am-11:30pm, and sometimes even later.
