Enak Kopitiam

This venue is one of Good Food’s Essential Perth Cafes and Bakeries of 2026.Named after the Malay word for “delicious”, Enak does one of Perth’s most earnest impressions of a kopitiam: the bustling Chinese-style coffee shops found across South-East Asia. The handiwork of owners and chefs Zhong Chong and Merlyn Tanuwijaya offer plenty of opportunities to yell enak: from comforting toasts glued together with kaya or sardine sambal, to cauldrons of soupy hor fun.Good to know: During weekends, buy takeaway kuih (rice flour desserts and cakes) at the same as you order to avoid queuing a second time.Good Food reviews are booked anonymously and paid independently.
