Black Moustache Coffee Co.

Black Moustache Coffee Co. is a boutique coffee stall inside the Swan Settlers Market on Lennard Street in Herne Hill, in Perth's Swan Valley wine country. It trades with the market: Saturday and Sunday 9am to 5pm, and closed through the week, so this is a weekend-morning stop rather than a daily habit.

The dog setup

The market as a whole runs dog-friendly, and the stall is right in the middle of it. Dogs on a secure leash are welcome through the open-air market grounds and around the stall, and the market keeps drinking bowls out in the outdoor areas. Two hard edges: dogs are not permitted inside the International Food Hub, so route your wander around that section, and keep your dog clear of the busy eating zones where plates and hot coffee are moving.

Worth knowing

The menu leans espresso classics (flat white, long macchiato, mocha) plus a colourful side of specialty lattes, including beetroot and turmeric, and a chilli hot chocolate. Cakes, bakes and sweet treats sit alongside for pairing. This is a wander-and-caffeinate stop, not a full sit-down kitchen, so pair it with a market breakfast from the vendors around it. Stallholder hours can shift seasonally, so confirm current opening days on the market's page before a long drive.

Getting there and parking

The market sits at 124 Lennard Street, Herne Hill, with free onsite parking. Aim for an early weekend arrival: before mid-morning the aisles are roomy and your dog has space to settle, while later sessions tighten up around the popular stalls.

Close by with the dogs

For a proper run before coffee, the fenced dog park at Little Duck Creek Reserve in Guildford is a short drive away. The Swan Valley continues past Herne Hill too, with Windy Creek Estate in the same suburb and the Jane Brook Coffee stall further up in Middle Swan for another day.

Max: get your coffee first, then browse, a hot cup and a crowded aisle do not mix with a dog on lead.
