Another Starbucks opening in Perth's northern suburbs
The 250 sqm cafe on Butler Boulevard, featuring a drive-thru, will be Perth's sixth Starbucks store.
To celebrate the store's grand opening, Starbucks will be giving away a free 16-ounce reusable Cold Cup to the first 200 customers arriving from 5 am on the day.

The store will typically operate from 6am to 8.30 pm Mondays to Sundays and is expected to create 20 new local jobs once open.
Despite being the world's biggest coffee chain and a familiar sight on the east coast of Australia for years, Perth's first Starbucks opened in Piara Waters only last October, drawing massive early morning queues as the American coffee giant broke into the WA market.

More stores have since opened in Mandurah, Ellenbrook, Murdoch and Clarkson.
The Clarkson store is about 10 minutes south of the new Butler cafe.
'Our team are thrilled to be opening our 6th store in Western Australia – with a mix of now 'seasoned' partners from our nearby Clarkson location, plus some fresh faces.,' a Starbucks spokesperson said speaking to PerthNow.
'The team have been working hard this week to unpack and set up, ready to serve our first customers bright and early on Thursday.'
Starbucks hopes to have another five stores opened in Perth by the end of the year.

The ongoing efforts of an Abu Dhabi-based consortium to takeover Santos is providing nearly as many jobs for the country's lobbyist class as it is for its lawyers and investment bankers. The latest to cash in on the $36 billion potential sale is former Labor-frontbencher-turned-prolific lobbyist Stephen Conroy. His TG Public Affairs recently added Abu Dhabi National Oil Co and its American private equity partner Carlyle to its weighty client list.

US is auctioning seized $500 million Russian yacht
The US government is auctioning off the $US325 million ($500 million) yacht Amadea, its first sale of a seized Russian luxury ship since the start of Moscow's invasion of Ukraine. The auction, which closes on September 10, comes as President Donald Trump seeks to increase pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin to end the war. The US has said it's working with allies to put pressure on Russian oligarchs, some of whom are close to Putin and have had their yachts seized, to try to compel him to stop the war. The 106-metre-long yacht, seized three years ago and currently docked in the US city of San Diego, was custom-built by the German company Lürssen in 2017. Designed by François Zuretti, the yacht features an interior with extensive marble work, eight state rooms, a beauty salon, a spa, a gym, a helipad, a swimming pool and a lift. It accommodates 16 guests and 36 crew members. Meanwhile, Eduard Khudainatov, a former chairman and chief executive of the state-controlled Russian oil and gas company Rosneft, who has not been sanctioned, claims to own it. US prosecutors say Khudainatov is a straw owner of the yacht, intended to conceal the yacht's true owner, Kerimov. Litigation over the true ownership of the yacht is ongoing. A representative of Khudainatov said in an emailed statement on Wednesday that the planned sale of the yacht is 'improper and premature' since Khudainatov is appealing a forfeiture ruling. 'We doubt it will attract any rational buyer at fair market price, because ownership can, and will, be challenged in courts outside the United States, exposing purchasers to years of costly, uncertain litigation,' said the representative, Adam Ford. The yacht has been virtually untouched since the US National Maritime Services took custody of it in 2022. To submit a sealed bid on it, bidders must put in a $US11.6 million deposit, to be considered. Ford said Khudainatov would go after any proceeds from the sale of the yacht, estimated to be worth $US325 million. 'Should the government press ahead simply to staunch the mounting costs it is imposing on the American taxpayer, we will pursue the sale proceeds, and any shortfall from fair market value, once we prevail in court," Ford said. An American aid package for Ukraine signed into law last May gave the US the ability to seize Russian state assets in the US and use them for the benefit of Kyiv, which was attacked by Russia in February 2022.
