Café Georgiou

Café Georgiou is definitely a step up from the derro infested greasy food court at Whitfords but in saying that the coffee isn’t the best and neither is the service.
All of the food looks pretty fresh and well displayed and there is a lot of menu options. I felt like I was completely ignored and then when I was finally regarded by the waitress her disposition seemed like she would rather be somewhere else.
I ordered a macchiato and it was not really up to scratch.

You could be in a café on Fremantle’s cappuccino strip. The smell of coffee fills the air. The espresso machine’s milk steamer whines like the whistle of a train. There is beer and wine for those who refuse to accept that the long lunch is dead and who have committed themselves to reviving the tradition as long as they’re alive and can imbibe. You could be in café on Fremantle’s cappuccino strip except that people have brought their shopping trolleys in with them and have sent them rolling across the polished wooden floorboards. There are no shopping trolleys on the cappuccino strip.
I must have missed the memo about shopping centres being the appropriate setting for coffee shops with full kitchens and liquor licenses. Then again, I’m not one of those who, confronted with the question of what to do with my spare time, thinks that going to the mall is a particularly good answer. As those who do appear to grow in number it only follows that shopping centres, like airports, should come more and more to resemble air-​conditioned microcosms of the real world as it existed before everything moved inside corporate complexes. (Café Georgiou is across from the Pulp Fiction Book Exchange, which is another store I wouldn’t have expected to find in such a place.)
While plenty of people come here for the food, I prefer to get a takeaway coffee, the quality of which is admirably high. I tend to feel slightly uncomfortable when the view from a well-​appointed café is a Target on one side and an escalator on the other. The false hope is very quickly dashed.
