Sun's out, fun's in: Perth's best beer gardens

Plus Rocky Pool walk, and more tips for the weekend ahead.

Well it didn’t take long for the old rainy-weekends-during-spring myth to be debunked did it? Just goes to show that obsessing over the weather is a fool’s game, and this guy is the crown jester. Next up: complaining about it being too hot too soon 😅

Definitely wasn’t complaining last Friday afternoon after a long editorial team lunch at FOUND. in Subi, which in turn prompted a quick freshen up of our beer gardens article, timely given we’re sure there’s a few of you on the hunt for one this weekend. Check it out below, along with a little Rocky Pool guide, a WAFL Grand Final preview, and a few extra hot tips for the sunny weekend ahead.
