Two men accused of holding up a fast food restaurant and threatening a teen with a knife in Palmyra will face court today.

Police said the armed robbery happened just after 8.45am last Thursday when two men walked into the Canning Highway outlet armed with a knife.

They threatened the 18-year-old employee, demanded cash and fled the outlet after they received it.

Yesterday, with the help of a police dog Raptor, the Regional Investigations Unit detectives arrested two men in Beaconsfield.

A 34-year-old man from Fremantle was charged with aggravated armed robbery, and possessing a prohibited drug, while a 21-year-old Beaconsfield man was charged with aggravated armed robbery.
