Think $5.50 is too much for a flat white? Actually it's too cheap, and our world-famous cafes are paying the price 16/04/2024

How much is too much for your coffee? What's the most you would pay for your daily cup of Joe?

Insightful article about what goes into the cost of coffee, and how WA prices compare across the country, and the world.

It's important to note also for us here at Ground+Co, the price of coffee also includes the impact costs for us to train and employ women and young people at-risk of homelessness.

We wouldn't be able to continue what we do without the support of the State Library of Western Australia and of course, our amazing customers - thank you for choosing us to caffeinate you and provide catering for your events, everything you do helps us break the cycles of homelessness in WA 💙

Think $5.50 is too much for a flat white? Actually it's too cheap, and our world-famous cafes are paying the price Our recent survey of Australian capital cities found the average price of a small takeaway flat white at speciality venues is $4.78. But in some international capitals, it's almost double this, even after adjusting for local purchasing power parity.

The State Library of Western Australia is doing some very important works in our alfresco area so unfortunately the bridge entrance will be closed for another week or so.

It does mean we are also closed until the library opens at 9am but from then on our little cafe arms are wide open!

Enter through the main library entrance either through the back or front 🙂 thank you for your support and understanding!
