If you fancy a good rum, Sneaky Tony's has your name written all over it. A hop, skip or stumble down an alleyway in Chinatown and you’ll find yourself at the unassuming door of Sneaky Tony’s – Perth’s top secret premium rum bar. If you wish to enter, you’ll have to proclaim the daily password, which may or may not be found on Facebook or Instagram. One you mutter those magic words to the gatekeeper through the tiny, peeking-shutter in the prohibition-style door – well there’s a few more doors – but then you’ll be met with an exposed-brick and timber-laden speakeasy with a touch of American-forward decor. With shelves boasting an impressive collection of more than 300 rums from all four corners of the globe, there’s sure to be something to tickle your fancy. Or, go hard on the cocktails, in which you can order an entire crystal punch bowl. For those after hard liquor, the expert mixologists will pinpoint the perfect drink for you.
Time Out tip: There’s no signage on the outside of Sneaky Tony’s locale. Just listen carefully for the tunes, and keep a weather eye on punters who look like they know what they’re doing.
