Balmoral Hotel

The Balmoral Hotel sits on Albany Highway at Victoria Park, a popular dining-and-drinking strip in Perth's inner south-east. A large, much-loved pub and live-music venue, it's a genuine local institution — combining a relaxed pub atmosphere with quality food, good drinks and a strong reputation for live music and entertainment, the kind of crowd-pleasing spot that draws a big, loyal crowd.

The appeal is that combination of a great pub atmosphere, quality food and drinks and a vibrant live-music-and-entertainment offering, ideal for a relaxed meal, a drink, catching live music, or a fun night out. Its blend of a quality pub and a genuine live-music venue gives it real appeal, and the Balmoral has clearly become a beloved fixture of Perth's scene.

With a 4.4 rating from more than 4,900 reviews, it's clearly a firm favourite. Menus, drinks lists, the live-music and events program, opening hours and any ticketing vary, so it's worth checking the current details before you go — particularly for a specific gig or event — though for a meal, a drink or a night out, it's often just a matter of dropping in at the Balmoral in Victoria Park.
