Perth Food and Drink News for the Foodies

Perth’s food scene never sleeps, and neither should your appetite. New restaurants are throwing open their doors, menus are getting bold revamps, and pop-ups are here for a good time, not a long time. Whether it’s a hidden bar slinging next-level cocktails, a chef pushing boundaries with fire and fermentation, or a fresh spot redefining comfort food, there’s always something worth chasing. This roundup has all the delicious intel you need to stay ahead of the curve. Consider it your cheat sheet to eating well—and eating first.

Faraday’s Opens in London House

A warm cob loaf, served fresh and begging to be shared, with a range of add-ons to make it even better—the girl dinner vibes are strong at Faraday’s. That, plus the options for tipples on the Terrace just got even better with this newest addition to London House. Open since January, it’s the kind of place where a quick bite effortlessly turns into a long lunch. The menu leans into comfort—think halloumi fries, steak sandwiches, parmies, pies, and, of course, that irresistible cob loaf—all paired with a killer lineup of cocktails, wine, and beer.

Pork Reigns Supreme at Wang Xiang Noodle

The East Malaysian chain’s first Perth outpost is slinging nearly 400 bowls a day of sang nyuk mian—a Miri-born classic of silky pork slices, liver, and golden-fried pork lard atop your choice of noodles, all bathed in a soul-warming broth simmered for hours. Kolok mee—slick with dark, molasses-like sauce—and a heritage chicken rice round out the lineup, with fiery house-made chilli bringing the heat. Wash it down with hor ka sai (kopi, Milo, and evaporated milk), then join the queue again—you’ll want another round.

Enjoy the Delicious Vibes at Ginza Nana Alley

Some of the best meals you’ll ever eat are down dimly lit alleyways, elbow-to-elbow with strangers, the air thick with smoke and stories. Ginza Nana Alley brings that exact energy to Perth, courtesy of Daisuke Hiramatsu (Hifumiya, Jigoro) and the Tsukumo Group. Five eateries, a 70-seat indoor yokocho, and a drinks lineup worthy of Tokyo—this is Japan’s alleyway culture, reimagined. Yakitori grilled over binchotan, Hiroshima-style ramen, crystal-clear oden broth, crisp tonkatsu, wobbly purin, and high-end sake. Follow the lantern glow on Murray Street and lose yourself in the moment.

Boatshed Market: Perth’s Answer to Erewhon—But Better

Perth’s Boatshed Market has been hailed as Australia’s answer to Erewhon, the ultra-luxe LA supermarket famed for its organic produce and cult-status hot bar. But according to foodies, Boatshed might just be better. Housed in a former boat-building facility, this refined grocer delivers top-tier produce, an ever-changing hot food counter, a dedicated cheese shop, and a world-class fishmonger. The Wine Loft and soon-to-open Japanese restaurant elevate the experience further.

With a hyper-focus on premium local ingredients, it’s a bougie food lover’s paradise—like Erewhon, but with an Aussie soul and a whole lot more flavour!
