A Beaufort Street stalwart continues to excel.
An icon of the Western Australian pub scene, pints have been pulled here since the 1800s. Bringing things up to date, it’s still a bustling local with a crowd that might be here for the sport, a midweek catchup, or the Italian-leaning menu that keeps the drinks flowing. There’s a dining room to the rear but the menu is carried through the venue. Think satisfying, pub-friendly eats like crisp arancini or salty, delicious, ravioli parcels served with truffled ketchup, and meatballs with a gooey stracciatella centre. Beer is a given, alongside a small but concise wine list with a strong Western Australian focus. The pulling power of The Queens is the atmosphere – a solid local where punters feel some sense of ownership. Something which has been decades in the making.
