About Shesh Besh Restaurant & Cafe

Leederville regulars head here for authentic Levantine grilled meats and an open-air shisha garden built for lingering. The kitchen serves Iraqi kebabs, succulent lamb shawarma, and whipped toum in platters so large a single main easily feeds two. Long family tables pack in alongside casual weeknight diners picking through warm bread, dips, and pickled vegetables. Out back, the relaxed garden patio catches the evening breeze over smooth shisha and mint lemonade.

  • Heaped Sharing Platters: Family-sized platters of charcoal meats and shawarma regularly yield ample portions built for two or take-home leftovers.
  • Alfresco Shisha Garden: An open-air back garden dedicated to smooth shisha and unhurried conversation long after dinner wraps up.

  • Dedicated Alfresco Shisha Garden

    A dedicated outdoor back garden allows diners to smoothly transition from dinner into a nightcap of premium shisha under the open sky.

    Shisha bar out the back is a great way to finish the night!

  • Relaxed Evening Outdoor Vibe

    An easygoing, unhurried outdoor ambience provides an inviting setting where guests can kick back, smoke shisha, and enjoy evening downtime.

    Also, there is a sheesha and a alfresco behind (for those who are interested). The vibe was really good.

  • Shawarma

    this is officially the best shwarma in Perth. The meat, the hummus, the garlic, and most importantly the pickled vegetables.
