Leave bustling Hay Street for the enclosed peace of the courtyard and bar, which occupies the site of a 19th-century stable. While upstairs is more restaurant than bar, the ground floor kicks into life with the after-work and weekend crowd. A wine list that mines the quality names of West Australian premium wine, specifically Margaret River and Great Southern, also gives space to Australia’s other key regions. Bubbles are French, with a good Champagne selection. Food is solidly pub oriented with an angle on quality produce and some classic comfort dishes – think lamb rump and pan-fried barramundi.
