With all the craft gin distillers around these days, sometimes it’s hard to choose between them all. Why not leave it to the gin experts and head into one of Perth’s gin bars to find your next favourite drop? To celebrate World Gin Day 2022 on Saturday, June 11, we’ve curated a list of the best gin bars in Perth. Forgive me for I am about to gin.
1. The Flour Factory
Boasting over 100 gins from around the globe, as well as a huge Australian gin selection, The Flour Factory is the perfect spot to find your next go-to G&T. Put your taste buds to the test with all things gin, including a truly gincredible cocktail list. There’s also plenty of food on offer too, as well as gin masterclasses you can attend.
Find The Flour Factory at 16 Queen St, Perth.
2. Limeburners & Giniversity in the Valley
Limeburners & Giniversity in the Valley is housed where the old Carilley Estate winery was. Located in the heart of the Swan Valley, this new bar, restaurant and cellar door seats 200 people and showcase the local gin in a new way. When it comes to drinks, think fresh delicious cocktails mixed up with a waste-free approach. One of the drinks you’ll want to look out for is the Outer Reef, made with Giniversity’s Indian Ocean gin, orange and sage verjus, a ginger beer reduction and bubbly native plum.

Find Limeburners & Giniversity in the Valley at 45 Hyem Rd,
3. Frisk
Established and opened in 2010, Frisk is Perth’s very first gin bar to pop up on the scene. The late-night neighbourhood bar carries around 200 gins, perfect for an after-work G&T. We recommend trying the Beefeater Crown Jewel gin, which is from a limited run, so it’s super rare. They also have an epic cocktail menu which is totally worth trying out.
Find Frisk at 103 Francis St, Northbridge.
4. Aurora Perth Rooftop Bar
We love a good rooftop bar with a view, and it doesn’t get much better than Aurora. Nestled in the Melbourne Hotel, not only will you be graced with a spectacular view of the city skyline here, but you’ll also get to try Aurora’s house made Anemoi Gin as well as plenty of cocktails.
Find Aurora Rooftop Bar at The Melbourne Hotel, Perth.
5. W Churchill
This fine-dining pub restaurant will have you spoilt for choice with a huge variety of gin cocktails and a list of over 100 gins to choose from. Their pub-style food menu includes a homemade beef pie, chicken parmi, burgers and more, which is sure to pair perfectly with your tipple.
Find W Churchill at 125 St Georges Terrace.
