You’ll find a large range of cafés, restaurants and takeaway options suitable for all tastes and budgets within a short walking distance along Broadway and Hampden Road, including the Food Court at nearby Broadway Fair Shopping Centre (perfect for a quick lunch or bubble tea between classes).

WE LOVE: Little Way’s delicious all-day dining; Varsity’s generous burgers and casual atmosphere; Barrett’s beautiful fresh rolls and sweet treats; and The Tenth State’s amazing coffee. Prefer pizza?

Broadway Pizza is a student favourite. Or maybe try fish and chips by the river on a sunny day.

Getting around Most local amenities are within easy walking and cycling distance. There are a range of public bus routes that can take you to the Perth CBD and surrounding areas; stops are located in front of UWA and along local streets.
