Manuka Woodfire Kitchen

Manuka Woodfire Kitchen sits on High Street in Fremantle's historic West End, in the heart of Perth's beloved port city. As the name suggests, its kitchen is built around woodfire cooking — a fire-driven approach that's earned it a strong reputation in a city that takes its food seriously.

The appeal is that focus on cooking over flame, which brings a distinctive character to the food and a real sense of craft to the experience. Set among Fremantle's gorgeous heritage streetscapes and buzzing dining scene, it's a fitting addition to a part of Perth that draws people specifically to eat, drink and wander.

With a 4.8 rating from more than 1,000 reviews, it's clearly making an impression on the people who dine there. Menus change with the seasons and with what suits the fire, and opening hours and pricing vary, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly before you go — particularly on weekends, when a well-regarded Fremantle restaurant tends to fill up, or if you're heading down specifically to eat.
