The Shorehouse

The Shorehouse is a beachfront restaurant in Cottesloe, Perth, set across a large absolute-beachfront site with end-to-end windows and a sunlit deck. Its position is central to the experience: the dining room and outdoor areas look towards the Indian Ocean, making it a natural choice for a long lunch, sunset drinks or a special occasion where the setting matters as much as the meal.

The kitchen’s relaxed Mediterranean approach is built around artisan produce from Western Australia, with the Josper charcoal oven identified as a signature of the restaurant. The menu is organised across dining, breakfast, kids, dessert and drinks, while the drinks offering includes seaside-inspired cocktails and a wine program recognised through multiple Australian Wine List of the Year Awards. The venue says its wine list retained a Three Glass rating in 2025, giving wine-focused diners a clear reason to ask the sommelier team for guidance.

The restaurant has also received significant industry recognition, being named Best Restaurant in Western Australia at the 2025 AHA Awards for the third consecutive year. Beyond regular dining, The Shorehouse offers private events and exclusive celebrations, with options including private dining, cocktails and canapés under the stars, and seasonal event menus that draw on locally sourced produce and signature dishes from the restaurant. Event spaces include the fireplace and private dining room, subject to availability and minimum spends.

The venue caters for a broad mix of occasions. Couples and small groups can make the most of the ocean outlook, while families are supported by kids’ set breakfast and dining menus. For larger gatherings, groups of 12 or more are asked to choose a set menu, with online bookings available for groups of up to 40; larger events can be arranged through the events team. Dietary requirements can be accommodated when confirmed in advance. Public parking is available along Marine Parade and off Odin Crescent, though the venue advises allowing extra time during busy periods.
