About 43 Below Bar & Restaurant

Tucked below Barrack Street, this basement bolt-hole trades the CBD rush for a cold ale and an honest counter meal. Skip table service and head straight to the till. Regulars drop in for the rotating lunch specials—switching between porterhouse steak with fresh salad and beef goulash over mash. Upbeat tracks stay low enough for easy conversation, with share plates like pork and pineapple skewers rounding out the taps.

  • Subterranean Atmosphere: Tucked below street level on Barrack Street with background music kept low enough for effortless conversation.
  • Daily Lunch Specials: Rotating midday offerings like porterhouse steak with salad and beef goulash over mash alongside cold tap beer.
  • Counter-Service Pace: A straightforward walk-up till system that keeps pints and plates moving without formal table service.

  • Hearty Comfort Food & Cold Pints

    Unpretentious, deeply comforting dishes like slow-cooked beef goulash atop creamy mash provide satisfying sustenance alongside a cold pint.

    I had the beef goulash with mash potatoes, which I thoroughly enjoyed.

  • Subterranean Basement Escape

    Tucked beneath street level, this subterranean cellar bar offers a secluded haven shielded from the fast pace of central Perth.

    Venue is definitely "below" being below street level but well worth the effort to find!

  • Hidden Gem Off the Beaten Track

    Unassuming from the outside, this underground haunt rewards curious diners seeking a distinct, tucked-away local spot.

    Very easy to miss but certainly a hidden treasure!

  • Acoustics Tuned for Easy Conversation

    Upbeat background tracks add warmth and energy to the space without ever overpowering table talk or easy conversation.

    Good music but not overpowering if you'd like to chat.
