Escape This

If you want to test your dates, mates or fam while having a whole lotta fun, head straight into one of the totally immersive escape room challenges at Escape This. The rooms are some of the best-rated in Perth and you truly can't beat its handy Northbridge location; perfectly positioned if you and your fellow escapists want to hit the town afterwards… that is, should you escape in one piece.

Palace Arcade Fremantle

Palace Arcade Fremantle is much like their much-loved East Victoria Park and Northbridge locations: there’s delicious New York style pizzas bigger than your head, a fine-tuned drinks list overflowing with a rotating selection of crafty brews and boss-level cocktails, and all the retro arcade games you could ask for. But the Freo location is (dare we say) a level up on anything we’ve seen before.

We like the sound of the Creative Hand-Building workshop.

Strike Bowling & Holey Moley | Cannington

From the rather adventurous crew who brought us the mini golf revolution that is Holey Moley comes Strike, a bowling alley that ups the family-fun ante of ten-pin bowling with the addition of escape and karaoke rooms, a fully equipped cocktail bar and an American-style menu. Plus a second Holey Moley golf course, of course.

Work-Shop Fremantle

After huge success in the eastern states, Work-Shop has come to Fremantle to offer the people of Perth affordable creative art and life workshops! Offering classes as varied as gin blending, skincare botanicals and glow painting, it's no wonder the concept has been popular across Australia. Located in a stellar spot overlooking Bather’s Beach and the J Shed, we reckon it's the perfect excuse for a trip down to Freo.

The Best Things To Do On Rottnest Island In Winter
