LessSitting on top of the multi-level culinary and drinking precinct Print Hall is Bob’s Bar. And everyone knows that Bob’s bestie is the booze. Named after Australia’s third longest serving Prime Minister, Bob Hawke, this bar embodies the Australia culture with its appetite for beer. Channel your inner Aussie and enjoy a spectacular view of Perth’s tallest buildings with the Beached As cocktails, or the courageous should opt for The Bob-zie (served for two). Or do Bob proud, and grab a beer.
Hands down the best bar in Perth. Even the Australian Bartender Magazine thinks so. They gave the nation's 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.
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.

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.
