    How can this place have less than 5/5 I'll never know? Food on point, absolutely flawless! Compliments to the chef, everything perfectly complimenting whats on the plate. We went for the chefs choice and it was divine. You're staff are also out of this world, the perfect balance of engaging, knowledge and enthusiastic about the food and drinks on the menu. Will definitely come back for a jazz night soon. Thank you

    It’s absolutely not what it used to be! Table service would solve a lot of issues. We dined in and our friends spent half the time waiting at the bar to be served. Then half way through our drinks being made the bartender stopped to assist someone with a complaint. we asked what would happen with our table as we spent majority of the time waiting - not eating or drinking and we were told the table time couldn’t be extended. It’s all smoke and mirrors unfortunately. The portions are smallllllllll. I’d go somewhere else XX

    I had my birthday drinks at Clarence’s this week (my first time visiting) and to say my expectations were exceeded is an understatement. The team were so warm, friendly and knowledgeable and took such good care of me and my friends throughout the night. They made us feel so welcome. The semi outdoor area I booked was perfect for a winter’s evening as it kept us warm and cozy but separated enough from other guests. Oh, and the food and drinks we had were top notch. I can’t recommend this place enough - thank you so much team for making my birthday so fun and memorable!!

    Staff very helpful and efficient. Courtyard very pleasant

    Why isn't there a 10 star rating? This place is phenomenal. From the service to the food and drinks. I've been for dinner dozens of times and they never disappoint. The menu is always interesting and every dish is simply mind blowing. The cocktails would have to be my favourite though, hands down the best in Perth. They always keep a fresh lineup of cocktails and the quality is top notch. Can not fault the team at Clarences. If you haven't been already do yourself a favour and check it out!

    We had the vegan set menu and was extremely impressed, the food was sensational! Ambiance, staff service and dining experience were all incredible. The inside and outside setting is stunning. Compliments to the chef, kitchen & service staff you are all amazing.

    Walked in for dinner and a drink on Friday. The large Mt Barker wine was stunning and all the food was delicious, my favourite being the corn dish. Everyone was so friendly and the venue had such a great vibe

    We definitely need to go out more and further afield. Forgot how good some of the many bars and restaurants in the area are, and Clarences was no exception. Really enjoyed the interaction between staff, locals, and us blow ins. We were only popping in for one drink and ended up staying for the Crispy Chicken, which we heartily devoured. We will be back, with friends when the opportunity arises.

    Delicious blueberry sour cocktail and absolutely delicious food. We had a bit of everything. The potatoes were great, the corn 🌽 sooo good, and my favourite was their deep fried chicken. Definitely worth the visit. Great service and ambiance.

  • 5/5 Jamie C. 8 months ago on Google
    Blown away by our dinner experience here with the girls tonight. If we could give an extra star 🌟 for service we would. Warm genuine staff who showed pride in their restaurant and want their customers to enjoy themselves. Food was exceptional and all such new and different flavours! We went with the chef menu. Decadent cocktails beautifully presented. Love the New Orleans decor and all the brassy light fixtures! ✨️ We highly recommend a visit here!

    We had a small after wedding party for our closest friends. This space was just perfect. The staff were a hoot and the food was delicious. We had the best time. I can’t wait to come back for drinks and dinner.

  • 5/5 Beth C. 1 year ago on Google
    I had my wedding ceremony and a small reception at Clarence’s and it was the best decision I ever made. I only gave them 3 weeks notice but the team were EXTRAORDINARY - everything was perfect, we were so well taken care of, the food was DIVINE.. have been back so many times for dinner too, really can’t recommend this place enough!

  • 5/5 Kit & Natalie J. 1 year ago on Google
    Super friendly service, the most delicious share plates (the potatoes are amazing!!). Something for everyone on the Cocktail menu.

  • 4/5 Brad D. 1 year ago on Google
    Great food and environment, would have got 5 stars but the current arrangement of ordering at the bar and settling the bill at the bar leads to quite a delay to the dining process.

  • 5/5 Kate W. 1 year ago on Google
    Great service, super chatty and engaging staff and bar keeps, who make a delicious Tommy’s margarita and Negroni. Looking forward to returning to try the menu

  • 5/5 Rodney A. 1 year ago on Google
    A great vibrant bar along the nuzzling nightlife strip of Mt Lawley! We attended a Friday night event where canapés were being served to all guests and a drink on arrival. Food was tasty, plenty of it and great cocktail menu! The place was buzzing come 830pm with a DJ getting people into the groove on the dance floor. Nice chill courtyard out the back which is also half a smoking area, long bar, friendly service from all the staff and warm and cosy by the fireplace. Good event and fun times! Look forward to visiting again soon!

    I went to Clarence’s where I incurred a personal injury. The staff and management were the most supportive team and I couldn’t recommend a bar more for their catering for staff. The management went above and beyond to insure I was okay, and the bar staff were a pleasure to talk to. I could recommend this bar to anyone looking for a delicious cocktail and just passing by!

    One of the better ol’ fashions I’ve had in a while. Food was amazing but low light made it harder to photograph - also I was busy enjoying the potato dish too much to think about photos. Safe to say this place does one of the best chicken breast dishes I’ve ever had in Perth.

  • 5/5 Perth Vegan G. 2 years ago on Google
    Clarence’s Bar in Mt Lawley are currently offering an AMAZING vegan set menu every Wednesday night. This week’s menu was 2 shared entrees, a shared main and shared dessert for $39 - and honestly this was one of the most impressive vegan meals I’ve ever had!! The presentation of these meals was on par with the best fine dining restaurants I’ve been to, and every meal was cooked to perfection and full of flavour. I also really loved the unique ingredients such a pipian (a thick sauce made from pepitas and green peppers) and tepache (a fermented beverage made from pineapple, brown sugar and cinnamon), which I had never had before but both were incredible! 😍 Entree 1: Heirloom carrots with seeded red pepper sauce Entree 2: Charred eggplant with harissa, fennel and mint Main: Mushroom five ways with pipian Dessert: Tepache, caramelised pineapple, whipped vanilla coconut cream, macadamia Do yourself a favour and book in for one of these dinners ASAP! The dimmed lighting inside makes it perfect for a romantic date, and there’s also a beautiful courtyard outside with fairy lights. Please note you need to book in advance, you can do this by booking on their website (Wednesday nights only) and then select the vegan dinner under the options tab.

    What an incredible place. An excellent burger and glass of wine for a whopping $14. What a treat. I loved the food, and the bar like restaurant atmosphere. It was a seriously good dinner time. I didn’t find the service to be very good, a bit apathetic really. We ordered 5 items and they forgot one. So that was disappointing waiting for that last item of food and having no apology for forgetting it. But from that I am still impressed by the menu and I will be back. :)

  • 5/5 James L. 2 years ago on Google
    Clarence's is a lovely bar to stop in and enjoy a few drinks with friends. The low lighting creates a very nice, intimate vibe. The bar tenders served my party quickly and with a smile. Would highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Julia P. 2 years ago on Google
    Such a good addition to the Mount Lawley strip! The halloumi and cornbread is 💯

  • 5/5 Simon I. 2 years ago on Google
    This is great bar! We didn't stay long but would love to go back. The drinks list is really good, with a few local beers on tap. The cocktails are great and they take a lot of pride in putting them together.

  • 4/5 Geraldine T. 2 years ago on Google
    Great cocktails! Nice vibe. Laid back

  • 5/5 Andrew O. 2 years ago on Google
    really lovely cocktail bar, with a nice element of sophistication. Helpful and friendly staff, good choice of cocktails. A great place for a date or a drink and a quiet chat 🍸

  • 4/5 Anna S. 2 years ago on Google
    It was great food, great atmosphere, good drinks, good bartenders. Just like Clarences before it closed which I loved. I wish it was easier to get water. Having to line up at the bar for it to fill our bottle was annoying. But we had a great night and that's a minor thing. Good on their for the-opening.

😐 Priciest pub on the strip now, but the Tues night steak special wasn't bad. We were long time locals at Scotto before it became the Elford. We have tried it twice since it's been done up. It's lost it's personal atmosphere and the drink prices are way too expensive so I doubt we'll be back for that...

🫤 Coffee is okay, French toast is not bad, but not enough to make up for the disappointment from special schnitzel chicken sando. 21 bucks, and tastes like frozen chicken schnitzel from woolies, with a slice of processed cheese and chopped up lettuce.
