Comfort food

Wild winter weather calls for a hot, hearty meal. And Perth pubs and bars have got you covered with comfort food: think gooey cheese and carb-loading.

Small Print is doing fondue and raclette in August. Expect melted cheesy goodness with bread or potatoes and charcuterie, respectively. Wash it down with a wine - they have over 50 options by the glass from around the globe.

Henry Summer is also on the fondue train with fondue Fridays. Choose from cheese with savoury dippers or chocolate with fruits, marshmallows and more.

And Varnish on King is doing whiskey and cheese flights.

Nab a spot by a fireplace at The Stables for their wintery Wednesday lunch special: $20 for a wagyu beef pie, creamy mash and smashed peas.

Or try the handmade, fresh-baked pies by the fire in the Edward & Ida’s courtyard. They also serve up late night jaffles and have a weekly Sunday roast coming up in August.

Finally, proving that bottomless brunch is not season-specific, Hadiqa’s Spiced Bottomless features spicy margaritas to fire things up.
