The Cozi Corner Book Cafe

A second-hand bookshop and cafe in the heart of Roleystone village, this is a browse-and-coffee stop where dogs are part of the draw. The outdoor seating is the dog-friendly zone, and the kitchen does puppuccinos for the four-legged half of the table.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor seating area, which is the comfortable spot to settle in with a coffee and a stack of books. The indoor bookshop-cafe space is intimate, so keep dogs to the outside tables. Staff are known for being warm to visiting dogs, and puppuccinos are on offer for a small treat.

Good to know. It is a rare combination for the Perth Hills: a proper second-hand bookshop paired with a cafe. Expect chocolate croissants, cupcakes, scones and gluten-free options, plus community events like artist exhibitions and board-game mornings. Reviewers rate it highly (4.8 across 60-plus reviews) for the food and the friendly service.

Getting there. It sits in the Roleystone shopping precinct on Jarrah Road, with free parking directly in front of the complex. From Perth CBD it is roughly a 30 to 40 minute drive via Albany Highway.

Nearby with the dogs. Araluen Botanic Park is a short drive for a walk before or after coffee, and the leafy streets around Roleystone make for easy, quiet strolls.

When to go. Hours are usually 8am to 4pm, but check their socials before a special trip as small hills cafes vary their days. Good for a relaxed weekend morning when you want a walk, a coffee and something to read.
