Hylin

Despite being located on railway parade next to construction and warehouses and the train line of course which makes it slightly obscure, hylin draws in the office workers, the morning cyclists and joggers.
You walk into an open space café with a visible kitchen, pumping yet relaxing tunes and the sssh sound of the coffee machine. Order at the counter and grab a seat or order takeaway and while waiting grab a newspaper or one of the interesting reads available.
There is a combination of high tables, low round and square tables, balcony seating, outdoor seating, and even seating close to the kitchen action (the best spot in my opinion).
This Thursday morning around 7.30, it was easy to find a table for two though the café was more than three fourth full. I ordered the chilli scram which are scrambled eggs with chilli, truffled mushrooms, jambon and sprouts on sourdough. The eggs were creamy and melt in the mouth texture with a kick to them. The mushrooms were delicious. The bread was nicely toasted and easy to cut into and was good for scooping up the creamy eggs. The jambon was flavoursome and easy to devour.
My friend got the breakfast bruschetta with the customary tomatoes, feta, avocado with a bit of balsamic drizzle. He enjoyed his meal too.
I got a large skim cappuccino and was disappointed by the coffee. Too milky and not strong enough. I’m still feeling exhausted. :(
Lots of things on the menu to try. Want to go back for the grilled chorizo dish or the green veggie bowl. Mmm.

A most lovely corner café on the busy Railway Parade! Fresh ingredients make up some lovely breakfast options on the menu as well as a range of muffins, donuts and bagels. A must try in the growing hotspot that is West Leederville

Hylin has easily made its way to my heart. It’s a go to place for me. Coffee is always on point, as well as food. Great consistency in this place! I’m in love with their acai bowls. Burgers are brilliant too!

Hylin is doing it right… by it, I mean delicious food, friendly staff, and top notch coffee.
This little café is open for breaky and lunch and is regularly packed out.
Only negative is they don’t open Sunday… fingers crossed they change their minds!

Lovely little spot. Open plan to let throw that calm spring breeze, good coffee and brunch options.

Yes yes yes! Just yes. Just pick up your bag. Get your wallet and car keys and go down to Hylin. It’s awesome.
This place looks great and the service is first class. The staff are so intuitive and they knew what we wanted even before we asked for it. Need some water and glasses? Just think and it will magically appear. It did for us! Wonder when you food is coming out? Oh look… There it is heading to your table. Amazing!
We ordered 2 Spanish eggs, breakfast bruschetta, breakfast bagel and eggs with avo. They were all awesome. The Spanish eggs I’m told were very tasty and huge servings. The bagel was lovely and filling but I got such envy looking at all the other amazing fresh food.
I bought 2 coffees, 2 brekkies and a juice and walked away at $ 40. Holy moley. Has to be the cheapest brekkie ever!

This is my third visit to Hylin and it is a fantastic spot for breakfast and lunch. I am an early bird so I love that they open at 630am. They have seating available inside and outside under some gorgeous trees so it would be a great spot to have breakfast with your four-​legged friends too.
The coffee was great and the service is very friendly. Their menu has a lot of different options for breakfast including bagels from the Holy Bagel company. These guys make legit bagels so give one a whirl if you have never tried a proper bagel. They also have acai bowls which are starting to take off over here (they are everywhere in Hawaii!)
The menu is reasonably priced with most things around the $ 12 – 15 mark. I had the scrambled eggs on GF toast (from Strange Grains) and it was great. They have a few GF options on the menu so those with allergies will be happy. My only gripe was that the little pats of butter are straight from the fridge so you have that agonizing wait on buttering your toast while warming it up! Other than that, it is perfect!

I thought the menu prices are extremely reasonable, which was surprising but brownie points for Hylin on this matter.
The service was rather quick so we didn’t wait long for breakfast to arrive to our table.
The presentation of the dish looks great but where is the bruschetta, I didn’t order a salad? Needless to say, I did not enjoy this dish at all as I do not eat salad. After removing all of the irrelevant greenery, there was a slice of sourdough, a few halved cherry tomatoes, a few pieces of chopped tomato, crumbed feta and one egg. I may as well have ordered Eggs on Toast (12.50). Although it looks great, I was hungry so this is most definitely not a dish I would consider ordering ever again!

My morning wouldn’t be complete without a quick stop at this little gem in West Leederville offering coffee, chow and cheer. Located in an urban setting, this trendy space offers open seating areas that look out onto the street with cool wall art and industrial edgy vibe. Always busy, Hylin offers the best pastries, I highly recommend the chocolate croissant or a raw ball for a healthier option. Sometimes the queue can be long due to its popularity, but it’s worth the wait.

Menu is ok but another menu from a café in Perth that is overpriced.
The café is also very noisy, hard to have a decent conversation in the café.
Coffee is ok, nothing special
Not much seating for customers
Worth a visit but not a top ten café

Hylin is bright and modern, I like how the windows are always open letting natural sunlight flow indoors (a tick in my box for good Instagram shots). It has a contemporary feel with clean finishes and exposed brick mixed with greenery from scattered plants and adorable shrubs.
I think coming here four times within the space of a week already says that I have good vibes for Hylin. My top recommendations are the Creamed Corn & Chorizo, Green Juice and Nutella Cronut!

The décor is sexy, the staff are attentive and very professional and the food and coffee are brilliant. Take my latest brunch choice — a chicken bagel. Now that doesn’t sound too exciting, does it? Well, you’re wrong. The soft, melt in your mouth chook was layered between lashings of pesto and avocado and topped with a mountain of Swiss cheese and sundried tomato. The flavour combination was insanely good, and I wish it was bigger. Plus they use bagels from Holy Bagel Company, and you know I’m a fan of those by now!

Acai bowl highly recommend! Service was alright, fairly busy. Enjoyed the food and great coffee!

Google and Unilocal say they’re open on a Sunday which I learnt after going there and when we opened the door a lady who was on the rudely said they weren’t open.
I tried again on a week day and went around 2.15, they close at 3. After reading the menu for 5 minutes a guy came over and said the kitchen shut at 2 and we could only order from what was in the counter. This is not advertised anywhere so it’s pretty frustrating when you go somewhere for lunch as it says it’s still open only to find the kitchen closed.
The food that we did have was pretty good it just would have been nicer to order off the menu.

First to come out were our smoothies ($ 7.50) — both flavoured strawberry and banana, though hers had the addition of acai for an extra $ 1.00.
I liked the serving size — initially I baulked at the price tag, but once the drinks came out I thought it was a very decent size and I struggled to finish it since I prioritised my food.
The smashed avocado ($ 15.50) is a simple dish but looks beautiful and fresh, with two thick cut slices of toasted sourdough, topped with the promised avocado, poached eggs, a side of rocket and a drizzle of what looked like some kind of house-​made oil.
I would have loved to see a bit more avocado on this dish though given it’s the star of this dish — but outside of that all reports were positive, and there was a very satisfying rush of egg yolk spilling out from those perfectly poached eggs.
My creamed corn ($ 16.50) was a beautiful yellow swish of creamy goodness under a toasted ciabatta slice. On top there were slices of grilled chorizo, asparagus, a fried egg and a side of chipotle sauce. It was so bright and engaging to look at! (The natural lighting in there also helps).
The creamed corn is delicious — having it with so much flavour is easy to convince anyone why it’s easily one of my favourite ingredients. I definitely gravitate towards it! The chorizo is lightly grilled which is how it should be eaten. Too many places over char it, turning it hard and blackened, but this version was meaty and just a tiny bit spicy. A great addition against the sweetness of the corn.
My fried egg is gooey and the whites just set in place; the asparagus spears offering a satisfying snap as I bite down on them. So good! The bread looked tough initially but I was happy to note as I dived in with my knife and fork that a chainsaw for the bread was not necessary — thank goodness! It’s often a risk with ciabatta or sourdough. I really liked the chipotle sauce too which was punchy and vibrant, tying in all ingredients to become a cohesive dish.
I can’t believe it took me so long to get Hylin but I can happily say it was worth the wait! I was really impressed by their offering, the fast and friendly service and the flavours. The décor is beautiful and the food is fresh but tasty. I’ll definitely head back soon because those beans (and a few other dishes now plus their cronuts) are calling my name.

Hylin is awesome!
Coffee, Chow & Cheer!
Delicious food!
Good coffee!
Yummy sweet treats!
Fab staff!
Love this place, a work local for coffee and food :)

Arrive at the café, and there’s a few seats scattered around outside. Enter the venue and be greeted by a beautiful wall mural and sexy Industrial fit-​out.
This newbie was pretty busy on a Wednesday afternoon, especially for a place that’s only been open five weeks.
Residents and people working in the area must have clapped their hands with joy when Hylin opened, as there was definitely a need for it in this part of West Leederville.
We were there for lunch, and on offer was a selection of bagels and rolls and one salad. It would be great to see more salads on the menu.
The staff were absolutely stoked to be working there, such a friendly happy bunch!
I probably wouldn’t even bother trying to visit on the weekend, it would be crazy busy.
Overall, a great little addition to the area that really needed a cool neighbourhood café.

Will definitely be back to Hylin on the regular!
This cute café is tucked along Railway Parade in West Leederville and is the perfect spot for a weekday coffee or a weekend brunch. It was pretty busy here for a Thursday afternoon, which is no surprise considering the relaxed décor and big open windows onto the street made a perfect lunch spot on a nice day.
The lunch menu is a selection of readymade rolls, bagels and frittatas and they also have a pretty delish looking brekky menu which I will be back to try asap! I had the chicken, bacon and avocado roll on rye which was really yummy and there is also free wi-​fi so another big tick there. Also plenty of free and ticketed street parking right across the road.
The perfect place for a relaxed catchup or to grab a coffee and bagel to take away. Love it!

Came here for lunch on Thursday and was surprised as to how busy it was, definitely seems like a popular place for people to come to on their lunch breaks.
They have a nice selection of savoury items and rolls for lunch, my friend enjoyed her frittata, «it was very flavourful.» However you only order what they have in the window.
The wait staff was very friendly making sure that we had a full bottle of water on the table at all times and clearing our plates as soon as we were finished. (which personally I liked as we had a table full on laptops.) Also in saying that they have free wifi :)
Its a cute little café on the corner of Railway Parade and Abbotsford Street in West Leederville with outdoor seating and chill «unplugged» type of music playing in the background. Definitely a nice spot for a quick lunch or to catch up with friends

The first thing you notice when you come into the café is it’s wonderful atmosphere. A combination of happy customers, lively staff and smart architecture really brings the place alive, and makes it feel like you’ve escaped from the city –if only for a while. With a lot of natural sunlight, and an unpretentious unique twist in it’s design, it’ isn’t a surprise to discover the owner Josh started off as an architect before bringing Hylin to us lucky folk of West Leederville. In my experience, you’ll often find him behind the register, which is a wonderful thing. He takes pride in his café, smiling and happily chatting with each customer. The staff reflect this genuinely friendly attitude, high quality customer service.
Being a long black drinker, there’s no where to hide when it comes to my coffee. Hylins coffee beans come from Micrology Coffee Roasters in Fremantle, with 250g bags available for purchase as the counter. The barista’s tailor their bean of choice to your coffee of choice, delivering the perfect flavour profile every time. Best of all, the pricing is very kind too, starting at $ 3.00 for a single espresso.
The food is currently an assortment of glass box eats, with nutella and banana slice bagels a favourite of mine to see every morning, as well as a couple tasty breakfast options. Some of these tasty treats are supplied by The Holy Bagel Company, whilst the chefs dish out the rest. In addition to this, it’s been said a breakfast menu should be made available shortly.
Hylin is to me exactly what the area needed… an unpretentious, modern café, with great coffee at a good price, a nice atmosphere, wonderful hospitality and some enjoyable eats. I think I’m in love.
