About Bar Love

Tucked onto Brisbane Street, Bar Love trades Perth’s basic drink lists for sharp, dialed-in craft. Word among regulars centers on stirred-down negronis poured over custom clear ice—solid technique, zero pretension, and barkeeps who work the floor with easy banter. Pull up a stool curbside on warm evenings or settle inside amid retro color and low hum, winding down over an olive-brined dirty martini.

  • Precision Cocktails: Drinks bypass standard club builds, focusing on precise balance and artisanal clear ice for classics like negronis and martinis.
  • Warm Neighborhood Energy: Run with warmth and banter by owners Murray and Pip, creating an easygoing, community-first atmosphere.
  • Private Gatherings: Offers private full-venue hire for groups of around 40, complete with personalized hosting and drinks packages.
