Cowaramup’s welcoming, beer-centric bar
Plus the best things to do this weekend around Perth and more.
How about that White Lotus finale eh? Our office was a little divided on the outcome, but yours truly was a big fan of the Shakespearean tragedy of it all. It’s not often a TV show gets the water cooler chat fired up these days, so we’re excited to see which holiday locale Season 4 makes its way to. Like somewhere in WA?!
Rottnest/Wadjemup is the obvious choice, but perhaps somewhere in the outback, like a remote cattle station? Or deep in the Margaret River wine region - a few too many vinos, a little bit of mischief, some foul play afoot? Maybe a luxury glamping resort down in Esperance, turbulent seas, lots of slow-motion b-roll of kangaroos on the beach… Think of the possibilities!

EAT & DRINK
When it comes to great spots to have a beer, the South West boasts plenty - from the local craft breweries to pubs and restaurants, you’re never too far away from a good beer. But Cowaramup’s Servo Taphouse takes the beer drinking experience to another level.
