Some of Perth's best nights happen in the kind of places you could easily walk past. Small bars in Perth include hidden cocktail spots, cosy wine bars, and intimate venues perfect for birthdays, after-work drinks, and private celebrations. You'll find options tucked away in the CBD, around Northbridge, and throughout neighbourhoods known for their food and nightlife. A smaller bar often creates a more relaxed atmosphere and keeps everyone close to the action. Browse the listings and find your next favourite spot.
Booking costs of small bars average $50 per person. Costs vary depending on guest capacity, popularity, location, and amenities like sound systems or bar services. Extra charges may apply for custom catering, decor, or event planning services. Packages with add-ons, such as DJs, photo booths, or other entertainment services, can also increase the overall cost.
