Steves Nedlands hotel in Perth Western Australia

Big Sunday Breakfast. Hot morning food. Close to the Swan river for bicycle ride. See below. 

See their website http://www.steves.com.au/ Check the menu and prices before you try or do an extra heavy workout. You will know why when you get there.

We booked using the Qantas restaurant booking system also supported by Dimmi http://www.dimmi.com.au/.

Nice for breakfast in autumn as we sat on the verandah. The prices are in the high teens for breakfast staples and low 20s for the steak. Expect to feed the family as a treat on special occasion otherwise you would not be able to justify it on a budget.

We had family from overseas visiting so it was a great experience for them. Lots of locals and regulars dining who helped themselves to service and barterted with the waiting staff. Some of the diners on our table rode their bicycle to the restaurant and really enjoyed the weather and the Swan river. Map of ride below.

Salmon and house hash potatoes.

Stomach stuffing Steak and eggs (poached or scrambled - two photos of the different styles) 



The good old big breakfast with sausage and eggs side up.


Ride your bicycle to breakfast. Take a trek along the Swan river. This description of the ride below is from Western Australian bicylce riding brochure available at  http://www.bwa.org.au/file/file/AT_CYC_P_Ride_around_the_rivers_12_rides.pdf 


Ride 3 - Nedlands (Steve's Hotel) to 
Mosman Park 
Proceed along the shared path 
running between the river and the 
Esplanade. This takes you past the 
Nedlands Yacht Club, Gallop House 
and the Perth Flying Squadron and 
continues on past Tawarri Restaurant 
for about 400 metres. Here the path 
ends and you must carry your bike 
up the stairs to Birdwood Parade. 
There is a cycle path on the right side 
of the road before you reach Tawarri 
Restaurant, if you would prefer not to 
carry your bike. 

See map below. 



Turn left into Birdwood Parade and 
follow the road as it becomes Jutland 
Parade. This is where some of WA’s 
most expensive houses are located. 
The road curves right and becomes 
Victoria Avenue – which has bicycle 
lanes on both sides (part-time peak 
hour lanes only). On the left is the 
Old Claremont Museum (open 
weekends). After a small, sharp bend 
in the road you come to Christchurch 
Grammar School. At the Stirling Highway lights turn left 
onto the shared path. Cycle up a 
steady slope before turning left at 
Corry Lynn Road. 
Continue along then turn right into 
Brae Road and ride for about 100 
metres then turn left into Cliff Way. 
Take another left at the T-junction 
into Richardson Avenue and continue 
downhill where the road becomes 
Bindaring Parade. 
After approximately 200 metres a 
sharp and dangerous sweep to the 
right will start you on a very steep, 
but picturesque, run down to the 
Esplanade. Care should be taken on 
this steep descent. 
You are now in Peppermint Grove and on your left is the Royal Freshwater Bay Yacht Club. 
Proceed around a small roundabout and continue to follow the river past Keane’s Point until you reach the 
Mosmans Tea Rooms – an ideal start/finish point. More about Perth bicycle riding at http://www.bwa.org.au/bikes-and-riding/231/
