Why it's worth checking out

Bivouac Canteen & Bar sits on William Street in Northbridge, the heart of Perth's dining, bar and nightlife precinct just north of the CBD. A much-loved Middle Eastern-inspired canteen and bar, it's built a strong following for its vibrant, share-friendly cooking and relaxed, sociable atmosphere — a genuine standout in a buzzing, competitive food precinct.

The appeal is that combination of flavour-packed Middle Eastern-influenced food, a great drinks offering and a lively, welcoming setting in the heart of Northbridge, ideal for a group dinner, drinks and shared plates or a relaxed night out. Standing out in Northbridge takes a genuinely good offering, and Bivouac has clearly earned its place.

With a 4.6 rating from more than 1,200 reviews, it's clearly delighting its diners. Menus, drinks lists, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular Northbridge venue fills up on weekends, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly before you go — particularly if you're dining with a group, after a table at a peak time, or planning a night out in the precinct.
