The Laugh Resort @ The Shoe
The Shoe Bar & Café, 376 - 420 Wellington St, Yagan Square, Perth
At the heart of Yagan Square you'll find two levels of contemporary dining and drinks with a distinctly Western Australian flair. Whether for a morning coffee, afternoon cocktail or beer, The Shoe Bar & Cafe is THE city catchup spot where Northbridge meets the CBD.
Tucked away within lie even greater delights this summer with The Shoe's upstairs function room dedicated entirely to Fringe performances with a comedy bend thanks to The Laugh Resort Comedy Club. Audiences can dine before or after a show, pairing a glass from the uniquely Western Australian wine list with a bite from the menu of generously portioned, modernised pub classics heroing locally sourced WA produce and catering to all dietary requirements.
Nestled between Perth Train Station and Busport, we've got all you need to Fringe in style and hassle-free: quality affordable food, drinks, and great entertainment in one central location.
