Best Dinner Places to Eat in Perth

"Two hand-built ovens named Hansel and Gretel are at the heart of the 1898-built Fremantle building that houses Bread in Common. So it’s no surprise that hot-from-the-oven wood-fired bread, with freshly churned salted butter and housemade preserves, is a simple delight here. The pastries (Portuguese tart, glazed scroll and the like) are also a huge hit, but Bread in Common is not just a bakery – the breakfast menu comprises a range of hearty dishes from simple scrambled eggs to smoked brisket and poached eggs to decadent waffles."

"The warehouse interior and friendly atmosphere of Bread in Common makes it one of the spots you are guaranteed to get the best brunch in Perth. With long communal tables, this café encourages community and friendship over a shared meal. Their speciality is bread, and they make a great organic sourdough!"

"Set in a restored 1898 warehouse, Bread in Common offers local produce and meats in a communal table setting. Share plates, sandwiches, cheese platters, and dips and spreads mean you’re not likely to leave unsatisfied."

"Head chef and owner Kenny McHardy offers up delectable wood-fired oven pizzas, along with tasting menus serving fresh and local cuisine. It’s been included in 2020’s GoodFood Guide- for good reason."

"Nestled in a beautiful heritage building in Fremantle, Young George on George Street is a unique neighbourhood bar with a serious focus on food. Purveyors of craft wine, beer, cider and spirits, grab a table at the bar and settle in with friends for an after-work catch up as a buzz of lively conversation surrounds you and peruse a globally inspired menu of share plates. Rusticity abounds with stone walls with brick feature archways, polished concrete and black table settings, while the downstairs cellar is an ideal area for private parties and group bookings."

"You simply cannot visit Perth without taking a trip to Fremantle in the outskirts of the city, where you will find one of Western Australia’s best microbreweries. The building actually used to be a crocodile farm (c’mon, you can’t get more Aussie than that), but today is home to one of the top-rated beer gardens in Australia, with some pretty epic cider and beer options. Food wise, take your pick from tasty woodfired pizza, meat dishes, seafood and veggie options."

"Grab lunch and a beer at Little Creatures Brewery. Make your way back to the city to explore Kings Park and Botanic Garden. September hosts the Kings Park Festival to celebrate the beginning of wildflower season. Experience nature, climb the DNA tower, see the mighty Boab tree, and take the Law Walk for panoramic views of Perth."

"For many pasta-lovers, a bowl of Il Lido’s gnocchi or blue swimmer crab linguine would be their final meal, so it makes sense to be daydreaming about it during this time of uncertainty. From 4pm each day you can order pasta or risotto and pasta and pick it up from the Cottesloe restaurant’s side door — bellisimo!"

"Cottesloe’s Il Lido is now offering takeaway, so you can delight in some house made pasta or risotto at home. Check out their takeaway menu, call them on 9286 1111, then pick it up via their side door on Forrest Street."

"Join us for a delicious canape and beer pairing of five of the latest brews. Hosted by the legendary local team Bright Tank Brewing Co. Visit www.trybooking.com/BSMRB for futher event details."

"Enjoy the rustic vibe at The Village Bar on your lunch hour. Every week there is a different lunch special priced at around the $20 mark. Although it changes week-to-week, some of the previous specials have included a refreshing citrus and halloumi salad, and mouth-watering lamb ragout fettuccini pasta."

"Located behind Hougoumont Hotel on Bannister Street this new brewery is the perfect spot for an afternoon drink in its relaxing little courtyard setting. Open daily from 4pm their beer is fresh and delicious brewed on site by Dan and Geoff Goddard along with plenty of gin and wine options if beer isn’t your style. Make sure to pop in on your next visit and soak in all the good Freo vibes with a drink or ten."

"FORM’s exhibition space, The Goods Shed has an ethos of creativity for change and for the common good. With a focus on curatorial excellence and community building, the program includes youth art workshops, speaking events from artists-in-residence, and exhibitions – with current exhibition The Alchemists showcasing Indigenous Australian fibre art. 4 Shenton Road, Claremont"

"Just because you can’t physically travel somewhere exotic, doesn’t mean your taste buds can’t. Kitsch in Leederville is offering a to-go menu of their Asian fusion favourites at 20 per cent off, pick-up or delivered."

"All our travelling plans have been cancelled because of the pandemic. Yes, we cannot travel somewhere exotic for a vacation. However, that does not mean our taste buds can’t."
