Beyond Q

Pros: nice place to read books and get a classic milkshake while some live band or musician plays tunes in the background. Lots of parking. Good location. Lots of book variety including lots of old classics. Friendly service. Good sweets. They help firefighters too! Cons: At around the time of this review, their menu options could do with a serious upgrade. I won't currently recommend them for their brekky/lunch (e.g. mushrooms and toast is literally just fried button mushrooms on one piece of grain toast...). If they improve their menu, this place would be an excellent place to come for breakfast/lunch to eat and enjoy a good book. Otherwise go elsewhere to eat, but come here to chill and get a milkshake.

So this was at Curtin for years and years before they had to move and I'm thrilled that they moved closer to home for me. They have a great little cafe upstairs and while we were having coffee, T2 tea and nice cakes we listened to the live music. They also have sandwiches for a light meal. Live music was a nice surprise and the service was very quick and friendly. The bookshop range is very eclectic as you'd expect from a second-hand bookshop, I always find something that tempts me.
