Perth's small bar scene rewards those who know where to look. Behind unassuming doors, down laneways and tucked into heritage buildings, you'll find everything from intimate cocktail bars to quirky drinking spots full of character.
One of the best ways to discover them is with a local. Perth small bar tours combine a night out with the stories, street art, laneways and hidden corners of the city, introducing you to venues you might otherwise walk straight past. Whether you’re visiting Perth or looking to discover somewhere new in your own backyard, these local walking tours offer three different ways to explore the city's small bar scene.
Two Feet & a Heartbeat - Eat Drink Walk Perth
Food, drinks and local stories come together on Eat Drink Walk Perth, a walking tour from long-running local tour operator Two Feet & a Heartbeat.
The evening takes you to three unique small bars around central Perth, including venues hidden among heritage buildings, laneways and some of the city's less obvious drinking spots. Drinks and grazing food are included across the experience, giving you a taste of Perth's food and beverage scene along the way. Between stops, your local guide leads you through laneways, street art and intriguing city spaces while sharing stories about Perth and the heritage buildings you're visiting.
With plenty of time spent at each venue, Eat Drink Walk Perth is as much about settling in and experiencing the places you visit as it is about discovering the city on foot.
