Gino's Café
Gino's
A long-standing café opened in 1983 by Italian tailor Gino, at the start of Fremantle's Cappuccino Strip, now run by the third generation with house-blend coffee and handmade pasta.
Gino's sits at the corner of South Terrace and Market Street, the gateway to Fremantle's Cappuccino Strip. Italian migrant Gino Saccone, unable to find a decent cup of coffee, closed his tailoring business in 1983 and opened this café. It is now run by the family's third generation and uses its own house blend of coffee beans. Ordering and paying happens at the counter, with no table service, and prices are relatively affordable. The outdoor seats are great for people-watching. Beyond coffee, there are handmade pasta, lasagne, cannoli and breakfast. Reviews are mixed: the coffee and atmosphere earn the most praise, while some of the pasta is considered average. It opens early in the morning and runs until evening.
Opening hours
Daily from about 6:00 to 21:30 (until 22:00 on Saturdays)
