Named after Australia’s third longest serving Prime Minister, Bob Hawke, this bar embodies the Australia culture with its appetite for beer.

Hands down the best bar in Perth. Even the Australian Bartender Magazine thinks so. They gave the nations Best Small Bar award to Brett Robinson’s Mechanics. Therefore, there is no need for elaboration. Be sure to ask one of them to fix you up with a Flipside burger. Pair this up with a beer – you can’t go wrong with the beer and burger combo.

Let me take you under my wing and head on over to where all the finest birds are. Nestled on William Street in a lovely little hideaway sits The Aviary. The simple wooden furnishing finishes, along with its bold and bright seating allows this evergreen oasis to suit any personality. It is the perfect place to play the waiting game for The Bird Cage restaurant or Jamie’s Italian. If you’re feeling rather peckish, you can’t go past the AFC (Aviary Fried Chicken) with its famous yellow hot sauce or the soft shell crab slider with Singapore chilli. Satisfy those spices with the Sake Mojito cocktail.

Just north of Perth is a contemporary cosy cabin. Its industrial chic interior immediately tells you that this is not your common cabin, coupled with rustic elements such as bespoke wooden countertops and tables.

This is as fresh as they come. This aesthetically pleasing cube shaped site takes pride in practicality, recyclability and sustainability. The rooftop garden grows fresh produce for the kitchen and bar, therefore Greenhouse’s gourmet selections are all natural and honest here without jeopardising the taste. The Lemon Myrtle Martini is the must have with the Chilli Philli and Taiwanese popcorn chicken.

Giddy up and grab a table at The Stables. Situated at the end of a small Hay Street laneway, this bar will transition you from the hustle and bustle of Perth CBD to the relaxing rustic ambience reminiscent of the countryside, but with a touch of sophistication and a sweeping spectacle of the skyline. Bring the cavalry, unleash your inner beasts and spend ‘all day grazing’ with duck liver parfait and lamb belly tacos being personal favourites. Make sure you team this up with Sex on the Beach, followed by a Passionate Orgasm or the Candy Man cocktails.

Spectacular scenery paired with some exotic and flavoursome bar food is the standard here. Situated on the redeveloped Roe Street, The Standard’s sought-after tables on the deck sit on top of a shipping container. Its deck is filled with flora that embraces the industrial and rustic aesthetics with its colourful setting creating a contemporary feel. Most of their scrumptious selections are classified as ‘share’ plates with the caramelised squid, green mango and mandarin salad cuttlefish cracker is a sure thing. However, if your stomach is singing for more, sometimes it’s good to be selfish.

Sitting on top of the historic Flour Factory is Man of Many’s Staff Favourites – 13 November 2021. For the wine enthusiast, the term ‘sherry’ stems from wine from Southern Spain. For the foodie or meat lover, the exotic combination of a New York Deli and Spanish Bodega cocktail bar will have you licking your lips. For the gym junkie, six meals a day is the shred standard. Skip the shred for a day, because at this spot, one meal should suffice. Even though it may not be good for the gains, your tummy and taste buds will be forever grateful for so many finger-licking flavours. The tiger prawns are a must try. Their ridiculous range of gin will give you some complicated choices. If you can’t decide, let The Sherry settle this and spin for your gin at the bar.
