There are some seriously romantic finds in WA and no matter what your style, we have you covered.

Perth is home to some pretty great sports bars, ranging from classic TAB types to more upmarket pubs and bars with seriously massive screens dedicated to, not just Aussie rules (although, that's hands down our most popular code here), but all sorts of live sports.

There’s just something about pubs, isn’t there? The buzz of thirsty locals, the clink of pint glasses, the smell of chips wafting through the air—pure comfort. Perth’s pub scene is a glorious mix of heritage-listed haunts, zhuzhed-up locals and rowdy beer gardens that have seen more iconic Sunday sessions than anyone on the East Coast could possibly imagine.

Nokturnl, the hospitality group behind sprawling dining precincts like Stories and The Station, has built its reputation on knowing where to draw the line. There's plenty of theatre, but it's backed by real craftsmanship: the difference between a venue that's fun to visit once, and one you actually want to return to. Now, they're applying that formula to perhaps their most unique concept yet: The Queen's Arms, a proper British pub in the CBD.
