SOUTH STREET ALE HOUSE, Hilton:
“At South Street Ale House you can find everything under one roof.”
South Street Ale House has done something not many has done. They’ve done it all – and mastered it all. Master of the pub scene, master of entertainment including live music and karaoke and master of fine dining. In a few words, master of all.
While other venues ‘niche’ it and sweat over their one “thing” – South St Ale House does a variety of “things”. And they do them well.
For instance, tight Tuesdays – fine dining or pub grub done well on the cheap. Take your pick. Wednesday – half price night if Tuesday left you wanting more without feeling the pinch in your pocket. Thursday – crazy, sexy, cool nights with fashion shows. Friday – karaoke. Saturday and Sunday – live entertainment.
“We’re just a traditional family business” says Vince, owner-operator with a coy smile and and a gleam in his eye. Intentional or unintentional, variety is their mastered niche.
Downstairs in the two storey building is a modern pub with a hint of the old-fashioned which includes a pool table and 13 beers on tap. Here, you can sit back or rock it to live music, karaoke, fashion shows or cheer on your sports team on Fox 40 over a good ol’ fashion beer with the blokes. Or the girls.
Upstairs you can enjoy fine dining with family and friends or a romantic night out. Indulge in a seafood platter for two. Or a lamb rump, or the “twice cooked pork belly”. And when you’re done, you can go past the bottle shop on your way out if you need to pick something up on your way. Or make a mental note to drive through next time.
At South Street Ale House you can find everything under one roof. And with daily specials there’s something good every day – so for the Hilton and Hamilton Hill crew there’s no need to head all the way down to Fremantle. And for the Fremantle crew – get amongst it!
