Fremantle Market Bar

Saturday afternoons don’t get much better than this. Get away from the blistering sun or wintery rain in this hidden Fremantle gem. Situated in the middle of the Freo markets, this bar still has cheap beer (due to the obvious lack of overheads), good honest bar food and live music. The musicians are mostly buskers and are provided with hour long session times and for the most part they play sing along classics that include Pink Floyd, Pearl Jam and David Bowie. That said, it is inevitable that you will hear a timid, low volume singer that plays their own eclectic selection of music that may not be the publicans’ first choice.
If that doesn’t tickle your fancy then the people-​watching is pretty special as the bar’s regulars are a mix of odd, strange and interesting.
Sit here long enough and the daylight that greets you when the bar closes will come as quite a surprise.
