Aussie boxing legend Danny Green claims he found the best coffee ever at a cafe in a small WA town.
The former world champion took to Facebook on Sunday, saying Westonia Gallery Cafe in the Wheatbelt is the place to go for good coffee.
“Back out on the magic soil out around Westonia/Warralakin (Wheatbelt) where my dad farmed then met mum and continued till drought had them take a different direction,” Green captioned the post.
“Literally had THE BEST COFFEE I’ve ever had here at the Westonia Gallery Cafe.”
The 50-year-old has been enjoying time in the region and was impressed at the progress some of the areas have made.
“It’s awesome to see some of the smaller regional towns have a renaissance due to some mining projects or infrastructure,” he said.
“Love this part of the world, and the beautiful folk who live out here.”
Green’s parents Mal and Maria had farmed at Warralakin in the WA Wheatbelt before his father, who was orphaned and left school at 15, took up a job at Hungry Jack’s — a firm he stayed with for 38 years, including a six-year stint in Adelaide.
Green, who started Stop the Coward Punch campaign, made headlines last month when he slammed the justice system following a brutal assault outside RAC Arena while US country star Luke Combs performed inside

“I really think laws and legislation need to change and these types of incidents need to be targeted,” he said.
“And the law needs to come down very hard on these types of incidents because it’s a serious crime.
“The police do the hard work, they do all the legwork and then these people are put in front of the judges and magistrates and seemingly let off and it leaves us the public just bewildered.”
Green said the Stop the Coward Punch campaign was now being rolled out in schools.
“We want to educate kids from a young age before they get into the big bad world and they’re 18, they’re out and about in licensed venues. . . because these incidents aren’t just isolated to the nightclub precincts they’re happening all over the place and the majority are happening in and around suburbs,” he said.
