Rocky River Cafe - Perth

It's always a great experience. The ambiance is very welcoming and the staff and service are amazing.

My wife and 2 kids and I visited Perth, Monday afternoon nothing was open. We’re so glad we found this amazing little restaurant! We sat on the tree shaded patio. It was pretty busy but the service was still very good. A very hot afternoon. Two of us had fish and chips, one with house salad. Probably the best fish and chips we’ve ever had! The kids had chicken fingers split. Also delicious. Our new favourite when in Perth.

Has been a favourite of ours for a long time. But our recent visit was somewhat underwhelming. They did not have either of what we wanted to order. And our server did not know it. Nor soup. For our 2nd choices, my spouse found the coating on the fish (and chips) to be WAY too salty. My Nashville chicken sandwich had a nice bite to it. And great fries. Not giving up on RR, but it's on watch.

This is one of the best spots in Perth for an evening out! Rocky River doesn’t only have a beautiful patio, with a lovely waterfall. They have a great variety on their menu, and delicious food! Great atmosphere, with great staff! 10/10 my favourite spot to dine in Perth!

Two for dinner mid-week. At the door we were directed by a sign to enter at the rear patio. Because of an approaching storm, we were promptly seated inside. The Good: Service was fast and friendly, the food was good, beer was cold and the wine was refreshing. The Bad: It's an old building with hard surfaces and a high ceiling. The droning noise level was deafening to the point where we couldn't converse. We just wanted to finish our meal and leave. Easily fixed with some sound deadening material on the walls or ceiling. Also not a mobility-friendly building. Several steps to gain entry, and a full staircase to the washroom level. The Ugly: While standing in the alley, waiting for service to the patio on this warm evening, we were treated to the various aromas being emitted from the several large garbage containers that were also occupying our space. Really ?? You've got to do better than this. How about a sealed enclosure or maybe a different location for the garbage. To the owners: I'm a long-time Tripadvisor contributor.
