Ladle and Press

NOW OPEN AT WESTFIELD WHITFORD CITY

Hopper is a Perth local, born & bred, from the Northern suburbs. As a young chef, he set off from Perth to further his culinary experience in kitchens across the UK and Europe, on a backpacking adventure. His travels led him to a small industrial soup kitchen in the poverty stricken suburbs of Prague, surrounded by local factory workers, eating hearty fresh fare. This chance experience left a significant impression on Hopper and, all these years later, Ladle + Press is the result.

Ladle + Press offers you honest, healthy, delicious & nutritious food. It’s real, it’s fresh, and it’s affordable. Coupled with this philosophy on food, our focus is on supporting local suppliers – local business, local farmers, local grocers. This honesty in the food, the service, and the affordable price is something that is difficult to find in today’s market.

Food needs to taste good. It needs to be made from fresh ingredients. It needs to be free of preservatives and artificial additives. It needs to be affordable. And it needs to be made with passion. That’s what you can expect at Ladle + Press. We’re proud of what we do, and we want you to see it. Everything is prepared fresh onsite. Our open kitchen means you can see the fresh flavours being produced throughout the day. The kitchen, the chef and the ingredients are all on view, and we welcome you to watch us work.

Hopper has assembled an experienced and friendly team, who will provide a superior level of traditional customer service that, sadly, is no longer commonplace. We’re going back to basics.

Ladle & Press, we think you’ll like it…
