A carnivore’s delight awaits in Northbridge.

Fitting very much into the gastropub mould, this two-storey heritage building in Northbridge has been reincarnated as a 248-seat joint project between chef Stuart Laws and the team behind former Vic Park beer favourite, Dutch Trading Co. Look beyond the tap offering and you’ll find a list of rare, cellared beers that crosses borders and styles, as well as custom cocktails and a wine list leaning to Western and South Australia. Fallow is very much about eating, and Laws shows his hand on the menu, which includes dishes that are a cut above your standard pub fare. Think sticky wagyu rib fingers with Thai-inspired crying tiger dipping sauce, piquant wood-roasted Abrolhos Island octopus with smoked eggplant, and 28-day dry-aged steaks.
