Best Secret Bars Perth
FAT CONTROLLER
Hidden within the depths of Stories Pourhouse, lies our clandestine speakeasy, Fat Controller. Located between Perth CBD and Northbridge, Fat Controller is a nod to the neighbouring Perth Central Train Station.
This speakeasy offers an exclusive range of cocktails, from a bar team that lives and breathes the craft of drinks-making. With refined classics and a clever locomotive-themed menu – choose your drink shaken, stirred, or built from scratch, tailored to your taste.
The show-stopping feature is hard to find yet hard to miss. A striking train carriage façade creates an immersive throwback to a bygone era at the entrance… With an air of exclusivity, sophistication, and word-of-mouth charm, Fat Controller adds an intriguing chapter to the Stories experience.
Open Wednesday – Saturday from 5pm until late
As far as speakeasies go, we’ve not only mastered the art of cocktail-making, but also building hidden entries to some of Perth’s favourite secret bars… check out some of our others at The Old Synagogue (Fremantle) and The Beaufort (Highgate).
