So Shall Alice: The Brisbane

So Shall Alice: The Brisbane

I am not usually a fan of big pubs, I like my bars small and intimate. Every now and again, though, a pub reigns supreme. This pub is the Brisbane Hotel. Although it’s been around forever, The Brisbane has had more than one face. It used to be a tradie pub. Some years ago it […]

Is the death of the Beaufort Street Festival a good thing?

Is the death of the Beaufort Street Festival a good thing?

  Beaufort Street Festival just announced the cancellation of the festival. I can already hear people screaming about how their favourite day of the year to walk the streets and get drunk in the sunshine has been taken away from them. In fairness, that’s also one of the main reasons I love Beaufort Street Festival. […]

So Shall Alice: Choo Choo’s

So Shall Alice: Choo Choo’s

I rarely go into the city. It’s windy and a bit annoying and cab drivers seem to be ruder in the city and lots of the people are horrible. If I have to cross St George’s Terrace, then most of the time, I’m not interested. But alas, one bar has me coming back for more; […]

So Shall Alice: 399

So Shall Alice: 399

399. What can I say? It’s been a staple on my list of drinking holes for many years. It’s intimate, it’s well set up, and the team run it extremely well. Once of the things you know you’ll always get with 399 is good service and quality drinks, and they have provided that since the […]

Alice Mod finds Mount Lawley’s hidden gem

Alice Mod finds Mount Lawley’s hidden gem

Defectors is Mount Lawley’s Hidden Gem. Different to my thinking, it’s not one of the strip’s most well know venues, and while many people are aware of it, it seems it is a hidden institution. When you find Defectors (it’s above the Scoto, entrance from Beaufort St) you are greeted by an expansive lounge area that […]

So Shall Alice: It’s not a laundromat

So Shall Alice: It’s not a laundromat

Lucky Chan’s is a well-hidden, tri-level, late night restaurant that has taken Asian dining in Perth to another level, (or three). You’ll find it on William Street, Northbridge, if you don’t look hard you’ll easily miss it. Washing machines fill the windows, so thinking of a Chinese laundry instead of a Chinese restaurant will help […]

So Shall Alice: Mechanic’s Institute

Cocktail bars are a staple of my life. They give me  laughter, smiles, shelter from the sun, wind and rain, a home away from home and some goddamn awesome drinks. Perth has a great array of choices and one that sits very close to my heart is a little rooftop bar in the heart of […]

So Shall Alice: The Old Laundry

The Old Laundry is the newest edition to the buzzing Angove St strip in north Perth. The strip itself has an atmosphere that is reminiscent of Beaufort St when the focus was coffee rather than bars, and The Old Laundry fits in perfectly. The venue itself was a laundry 50 or 60 years ago and the old industrial boiler […]

So Shall Alice: Hey Mrs DJ

So Shall Alice: Hey Mrs DJ

I grew up going to record stores and little galleries and spending hours looking through hundreds of old vinyl records at Music and Video Exchanges in London (once I was old enough to realise they were awesome, before that I used to just kind of hang about, hoping to find some kind of awesome Spice […]

So Shall Alice: Breakfast

So Shall Alice: Breakfast

Breakfast. The meal of kings. There’s something about going out for a midweek breakfast that makes me feel a bit fancy. I know it’s just an everyday meal (well obviously) but it makes me feel good. It’s social, it gives my day a bit of a kick and getting out of bed early enough for […]
