The Grumpy Sailor..



Could you even get a better name for a cafe in a port city! Been meaning to visit The Grumpy Sailor for ages but was looking in the wrong place.. they moved location, found them eventually! Now in the Paddy Troy Mall in Fremantle City the Grumpy Sailor is a super relaxed cafe, good food, excellent coffee and if only I had known, bring a book, swap a book.. next time! The crazy-eyed dog having it's way with the table number made me smile, also the evil-eyed octopus waiting to engulf it's next victim. Another thing I will do next time is buy their tee shirt because I oft feel like a grumpy sailor 😒 Happy Tuesday, take care and stay safe..

  6. What a great looking cafe. Good coffee, free books, and comfortable seats are real attractions. You are going to have to go back there. Fine name. I am sure they will sell you a t-shirt.

  9. You grumpy? I can't imagine that what with your sense of humor. It is indeed a great name for a cafe in a port city. But the sailor looks more like he's looking for a good time, winking like that. Maybe he gets grumpy if he strikes out? The next time you go there, bring a "Popeye, The Sailor Man" comic book, leave it on a table and take photos of people who stop to pick it up... Oui?

  11. Oh, Grace, I need warnings! Otherwise all I do is eat when I´m back! And that would make me grumpy indeed ;-)
    And my list keeps growing!

  15. Cafes, music shops and bookstores are always on our list when visiting new cities. Now, if I could only get to Perth, the Grumpy Sailor would be on my list!

  17. What a great name for a little café. It looks like it might be a café and a reading room. That makes it just about perfect.
