First visit. Lotteries / Black swan live broadcast venue of Summer of the Seventeenth Doll. Very welcoming. Staff very quickly made us feel at home. Well organised event. Our $10 brisket in a roll was the best I've had. We will be going back!
Found at the city end of the Albany Highway strip is Dutch Trading Co. It’s a hip hang out for craft beer lovers and good news… it’s also family friendly! I was meeting some of my friends for a casual catch up, with kids in tow. As soon as I stepped inside the bar I knew I’d been here before, in a past (kid-free) life, back in the day when it was known as Manhattans. Chef was doing his apprenticeship at the Hyatt and this was a after work hang out, just over the Causeway.
Fantastic selection of craft beers and great pub food, the dirty fries were epic. The chicken waffle burger was something different. Live music on a Sunday mate a perfect end of the week

Visited tonight, Thursday. Ordered a flank beef dish, cooked amazingly well, so food is excellent and good value, played free pool. Not many people in due to roadworks just outside. But ...... bottled and canned beer !I ordered a Little Creatures 'Rodgers' it arrived in the smallest glass from a tiny bottle, that was a little disappointing, $9.00 for ess than half a pint .... oh well....
Overall would really recommend this place for the food from a chef who loves what he does .... took time out to explain how he cooked the flank beef ... basically making a cheap cut taste like fillet ... well done Chef.
Went there with friends and all of us was enjoyed very well. The staffs were all friendly and very helpful. Service was efficient and friendly.
This place is very underrated and quite the hidden gem down at the end of Vic Park. The place is kid friendly (with a little sand pit at the back too in the courtyard!) and absolutely delicious food. I love the vibe, very chilled and great music. I've had quite a range of foods here as I first discovered it at their invitation as part of a blogging event but it's definitely been one of my top experiences being invited somewhere.
I was honestly not expecting the food to be so innovative and delicious! The fried chick peas was the stand out - bloody amazing in texture with a soft centre but crispy outside and great flavour. The other was the fried chicken salad - the chicken was just amazing so I need to go back for more chicken. They had a brilliant range of both local and internatiomal beers, and service was relaxed and not pushy. Just writing this makes me want to go back now as it's already been too long!
A good venue that could be great with some tweaks. The service was good. I want this place to succeed where Manhattans and Causeway did not, so I'll provide some constructive advice for the owner. At mid afternoon the venue was very dark inside, it wasn't atmospheric, it was annoying not being able to see my food. Those "old school" lights look really cool but they need something practical to augment the designer lights. The lighting definitely needs to be improved. The argumentation lighting could be turned off at night when the dark atmosphere is a good thing. The pint prices are about $2 too much for the current market - the mining boom is over and other establishments have adapted and are doing $8 pints, DTC has not adapted and $12 to $18 a pint is way over the odds. Maybe $10-$16 per pint would be closer to the current retail market. The beef burger was perfect except for the beef - I think they got the mince mix wrong (too lean) or they overcooked it because it was rock hard. The rest of the burger (mustard/pickle/cheese/etc) was really on point and saved the burger and the spice rub on the fries was a nice touch (the rub tasted something like garam masala or curry powder mixed with something sweet/sugary).
So overall it is good but not great. We generally go to Varsity Waterford and we preferred their burgers and atmosphere to DTC but DTC's beer was better but too expensive. So DTC is losing 2 categories and neutral in 1 category. To take the win they'll need cheaper beers, improve the burgers and improve the lighting.
Great chips, great range - pricey - but great choice of beers, which is why you go. Enjoy the tasting paddle. They take eftpos. Knowledgeable staff.
This bar is for beer lovers, although the other drinks and the kitchen offerings are rather enticing too. The staff love to tell you about the beers, something like 50 different options on a giant chalkboard to choose from, but they'll also be quick to help you choose a red wine or a mix drink. No snobs here.
Hands down the best place in Perth for beer lovers, not to mention the absolute best burgers in town. The brioche fried chicken and Cajun coffee rubbed beef flank burgers are the best things I've ever eaten.
Come check these guys out if you haven't!
Was extremely busy but theyanaged to find us a table.
Prices were higher than normal but the food was good.
Wait time for food was minimal and the staff were all friendly and approachable.
Love this place! Friendly staff and patrons. Pretty good food. Can be a bit pricey though.
Pricey but a lovely bar. They have one of the best beer ranges in Perth and the drinks menu rotates regularly. Beware that they can end up with a lot of one type of beer here (when we went it was heavy IPA). The massive tasting paddle is a great time and really impressive look! Love the food here too.

Exceptional beer with great variety. Perfect place to go with a couple of friends, do pre drinks or just have a casual catch up. Food could improve, however the week specials/deals are very good for the price.
My first time here and I loved it. Great setup with the family/kids section. There is an awesome beer selection both on tap and in the fridges. I had a few nibbles and the food was nice. Will come back again.
Huge range of beers on tap and in the fridge, all craft and quality beers and a good range of quality spirits accompanied by a menu that favours quality over quantity.
We have been here a couple of times now, and have enjoyed ourselves both times.
The staff here are friendly and knowledgeable about the beers and spirits on offer and the venue itself has a nice cosy feel.
Quiet drinks on a late Friday night. Nice selection of imported and local craft beers, a little pricey but worth it.
Got really good food and nice events for beer tasting. Love the dark beer and stout nights
If you love craft beer this is the place for you.
Great takeaway specials and huge range. Fun lucky dip tins and good prices. Service was good with varied seating arrangements.
