2 Best Bars in Fremantle, Western Australia

Fancy a tour of a brewery? How about borrowing a free, retro-red bike for the day? Little Creatures has got a lot going for it—including its harborside location and fun-loving, artsy vibe—and it won’t cost an arm and a leg. Sign up for the A$12 tours that take you through every step on the beer-making process, running at 1, 2, and 3 pm every day. Then, leave a photo copy of your credit card and driver’s licence or passport with the staff so you can borrow a bike. This is the best place in Fremantle to taste kangaroo—the skewers are excellent, as are the steamed mussels and thin-crust pizzas. Naturally, matching the food with beer is a must. Expect a pleasant surprise from the mid-strength Rogers beer.

The Old Synagogue was built in 1902 and was the first synagogue in the state. Today, it's a happening hot spot consisting of four places to eat, drink, and be merry. Mr Chapple is a cozy small bar perfect for meet-ups; The Abor is a massive beer garden that can pack in up to 500 party-seekers; Tonic & Ginger is a trendy split-level Asian-fusion dining room; and last but certainly not least is L'Chaim, a supercool, retro-looking lounge that is hidden within the wooden walls of the basement. Can you find it?
