    Terrible rude obnoxious staff treating customers like trash . Went there sober waited 40 minutes in line just to get in go into the bathroom and walk out just to get kicked out for being too intoxicated because someone step on my foot. Staff Refused to listen to me even though I explained a few staff saw it happen and asked me if my foot is okay. No one listened and they proceeded to keep me out. Had to beg and fight for my money back since I didn’t even last 10 minutes.

    I was appalled at the ladies bathroom. No soap, the hand dryer wasn't working and no toilet seat on the toilets! I've been to third world countries with better toilets. How do you expect your patrons to use the bathroom? Where does my $10 cover charge go if you can't maintain the bathrooms?

    Zero knowledge Racist bartenders! If you've got squinty eyes you will be served last after every other blonde or caucasian on the bar. After they charged you entry fee and treated differently, apart from dress code on the website they also need to put colour code like when you were in 1930!

    The Team at Niche Cocktail Bar are excellent. We run our business social events there on a couple of Friday nights during the year. Our clients always love it, and I would highly recommend this venue for corporate social functions. Keep up the great work.

    This place allowed my friend to make a booking for a 21st and then decided to kick them out at 10pm because they were “closed” (were turning people away even earlier than this) but didnt let her know about the early closing time beforehand. Very unfortunate considering their online closing time is 3am??

    Absolutely cannot fault my experience here, after a really disappointing start to the night at another Leederville venue, I wish I booked my function at Niche. Manager was amazing and so accommodating, went above and beyond. Bar staff were literally the nicest I have ever experienced in Perth, friends also said the same. Drinks were delicious, music/DJs impeccable. A really really fun night that we are still discussing on the Monday and plans to return next year area already in place! Thank you, we all had such an amazing time and you really made my night!

    Tapas style to share, great mix of flavours fried squid, resoto lamb coutlets tacos we're the stars that night, great service the bar man ask us what we feel like drinking but it wasn't on the list instead of saying no, he asked what's the ingredients, we were not sure but he did his own research and made us a very delicious version of it what a gantlemen over the moon with service very impressed and made it a memorable night

    When you ask the security guard if your mate can get in with sneakers and expect no because of the sneakers instead says no because of his hand tattoos is DISGUSTING!! will never go back and DO NOT RECOMMEND. Its 2019!

  • 3/5 Ash A. 3 years ago on Google
    Pretty good club, music was rnb and hiphop. A little bit upset that we paid for three long island ice teas and got two shots of each liquor split between the three. We bought two rounds and this happened both times. I just think its a bit unfair as we're paying $20 for a drink and getting half-asked amounts of alcohol. Anyways the staff were not too bad, pretty friendly and smiled.

  • 5/5 alyson b. 1 year ago on Google
    I hired a room at this venue for my sisters hens party and I just wanted to thank everyone involved in the event that I planned at The Niche for everything that they did in organising the event for me. My sister (the soon-to-be bride) and all her guests had an absolutely fantastic night. The staff were amazing and very helpful especially the man who set up the tab for me, the food was awesome so thank you to the kitchen as well. Also thank you to Tom for organising the food. The functions manager, shaye, was also fantastic in answering any and all of my questions that I had. The lady that made and delivered our balloon garland would like to also pass on her thanks as your staff were extremely helpful and kind to her, as she made the point of saying that most venues are not when she arrives. I will absolutely recommend this venue to anyone else that asks for suggestions for an event.

    My son and partner got me a voucher for Mother's Day for the Niche Bar. Voucher was for 2 cocktails and a sharing charcuterie board. Service was excellent, lovely cocktails and the food was delicious.

  • 2/5 Stevie w. 3 years ago on Google
    We went there for my brothers birthday, was good except we were warned by a security guard that they wouldnt let one of us in because he had a neck tattoo. He swapped shirts with a friend to hide his tattoo and was let in. This isnt acceptable !

The cocktail bartenders go out of There way to make to feel welcome!! Love the creative of the cocktails!! One of the best cocktail Bars in western Australia!!!

    Not bad for a Friday night out. But if your someone that likes to go out every weekend probably not so great as the music tends to be repetitive....sometimes they have 2 or 3 djs in the night who play the same songs... However if your into rnb and a bit of old skool rnb this is the place to be. Bar staff are good, management seemed well informed and helpful. Lots of security around. Drinks were good too! The aircon was great (this is one of the main reasons i love going to Niche) expect for the fact that they decided it was a great idea to turn it off when it got packed. But it came back on after an hour or so. All in all a good night out just like any other club but a convenient location and good vibes

  • 1/5 ASHLEEROSE 3 years ago on Google
    Dingy place with no party lights. But worst is being completely sober and getting assulted and the staff member I approched not taking it seriously at all. Very dissapointed in the staff, lack of respect and the way it was handled. Would never come back and wont be recommending this place

    The last time I was here this girl kicked me twice for no reason. So based off this random act of violence I won't be back.
