In 2008 Perth embarked on a long-term plan to revitalise the city’s laneways and forgotten spaces to give them a new lease of life. The plan recently wrapped up to great success with upgrades vastly improving many of these spaces and bringing a multitude of benefits to businesses, residents and visitors. With enticing street art, striking lighting and eclectic small businesses, each laneway is now something truly special to discover.

St George’s Terrace is where you’ll find most of Perth’s office towers. It’s been the historical centre of business in Perth for a long time. It’s rather devoid of life outside of 9-5 weekdays, but recent improvements and initiatives are aiming to make it a street that is active outside of business hours. Further up, there are now bars and restaurants where previously there was nothing to keep people in the area. Today you will go underground to explore some of them.

Thanks to the city’s colourful history, you can find everything here today from jazz clubs to stand-up comedy bars to art galleries to live theatre to world famous restaurants and more. Perhaps most importantly for our journey today, the Perth Laneways are widely known as a gastronomic hotspot, boasting over 100 food and beverage establishments.

We’ve handpicked three of our favourites for you to explore today. We hope you like them as much as we do!
