Perth’s Best Private Dining Rooms
Planning a special celebration and need a little privacy? Whether it’s a dinner with friends, an office party, or even a small wedding, here are the best private dining rooms in Perth for your next special event.
La Lune
East Freo’s La Lune has become one of our favourite go-to spots for casual breakfasts or romantic date nights – but you can now add luxe private dining to the list. “Le Salon Privé” is tucked away from prying eyes, so you and your nearest and dearest can indulge in some wanton enjoyment of those steak frites – or indulge in one of the bistro’s exclusive hosted dinners.
73 George Street, East Fremantle
Balthazar
Balthazar’s timeless dining room gives you all the confident, New York-y, money-never-sleeps vibes you’d hope for in the business end of the CBD, but with an approachability that’s all West Australian. Tartare, terrine, kangaroo loin and duck fat potatoes tick all the hedonistic boxes, not to mention that impressive wall of wines. Whether you’re impressing clients or friends, the private wine room takes things to the next level.
6 The Esplanade, Perth
Santini Bar & Grill
Located at the QT Perth, this dimly-lit dining area is the epitome of contemporary sophistication. Santini’s closed curtain semi-private dining space is just to the side of the main restaurant and caters for 36 people, with the best of the menu’s highlights served over your choice of two or three courses.
133 Murray Street, Perth
The Royal
Prepare to get excited: this private dining room includes access to The Royal’s hidden karaoke room. Spend an evening, or lunch, with friends or work colleagues in the rustic, intimate dining room that serves food from either Fleur or The Royal Hotel for up to 14 guests, and then sing the night away in the karaoke room’s plush, retro surrounds.
531 Wellington Street, Perth
Heritage Wine Bar
With its crisp white linens, bentwood chairs and monochrome palette, Heritage Wine Bar has the classic good looks its name would suggest. Devoid of any trendy gimmicks, the menu has a distinctively European flair, with an unmistakably WA flavour and a meticulous attention to detail. Fittingly, the old-world eatery has not only two private dining rooms but a private rooftop terrace to really impress.
131 St Georges Terrace, Perth
Pooles Temple
This underground late night jazz bar at the State Buildings has transformed into one of Perth’s most plush private event spaces. Previously, Pooles Temple was known for live jazz and classic cocktails (including a mean martini), now the decadent space is intimate, luxurious and the perfect hideaway for you and your friends.
State Buildings, 1 Cathedral Ave, Perth
The Stables
Not many dining rooms come with their own cocktail bar! The Stables was one of Perth’s original horse stables from 1894, so the venue has historic charm and character. Attached to the original venue, is the recently renovated Little Stables, which houses a basement private dining room. The sleek space is like a speakeasy of the future, complete with cocktail bar and menu by Executive Chef Ben Keal.
888 Hay Street, Perth
Post
What was once the city’s General Post Office is now one of the best Italian dining experiences in the State Buildings. Gather a group of your nearest and dearest for good food and good wine in the privacy of your own dining space at Post. Along with menus catered to suit your event and dietary needs, there are three private areas to choose from, including a small dining room for up to eight guests; a larger room seats up to 12 guests; and the semi-private room caters for up to 22 people.
State Buildings, 1 Cathedral Ave, Perth
Sauma
Enjoy Sauma’s delicious cocktails and vibrant, modern take on Indian street food from the comfort of their dining room in the heart of Northbridge. The location is perfect if you’re wanting to roam the streets of Perth after dinner and soak-up the inner-city atmosphere. The private dining room caters for 14 guests.
200 William Street, Northbridge
Silks
The private dining room at Crown’s Silks is fit for royalty. The award-winning Chinese restaurant is renowned for fusing traditional Cantonese flavours with a contemporary flair, and the private dining room boasts plush seats, a seated area and dining table that seats up to 12 people.

Wildflower
Did you know that Wildflower has a private dining room for up to 20 guests? The meticulous fine diner is located on the rooftop of the State Buildings and pairs a stunning view of the Swan River and city with a menu that journeys through the six Noongar seasons and showcases uniquely Western Australian ingredients.
State Buildings, 1 Cathedral Ave, Perth
Samuels On Mill
This inner-city restaurant only reopened at the start of 2021 as part of the Parmelia Hilton Perth revamp. Inside the elegant restaurant is a private dining room that is separated from the main restaurant with a wall of brass chainmail. The modern menu is headed-up by the venue’s chef, Chad Miskiewicz, who has been at the hotel since 1998.
14 Mill Street, Perth
Nobu
If you’ve had a special occasion in the last ten years – anniversary, birthday, folks are paying… chances are, you’ve hit up Nobu. This global, Robert De Niro-owned brand has made a name for itself in excellence, and its Perth outpost is no different. The opulent dining room and its Crown setting naturally lends itself to celebrations, while complementing its modern Japanese-South American fare – and their joinable private dining areas (seating 12 people each) continue the luxe vibes.
Crown Perth, Great Eastern Highway, Burswood
Mayfair Lane
When you want to get away from the busy bar, Mayfair Lane’s cosy dining room is the place to go. The room caters for 33 people for a long table dinner or 40 guests if you prefer a cocktail and canape style of evening, all with Mayfair Lane’s signature elevated gastropub fare.
72 Outram Street, West Perth
Garum
Guy Grossi’s Roman osteria at The Westin Perth has two private dining options, depending on what you’re after. If you’re chasing ultimate privacy, then Garum’s private dining room “Polpo” is downstairs underneath the restaurant and offers a self-contained space. If you’re wanting to still be part of the hustle and bustle of the restaurant, then the Alcove is a semi-private space just off the restaurant.
480 Hay Street, Perth
Besk
This West Leederville joint is busy, so if you’re looking to hold a large gathering there, it’s best to book their cellar space downstairs. Besk’s cellar caters for up to 40 people seated, or 90 people standing and can be completely booked out, or partially for smaller groups between 12 through to 40. There are four beer taps, as well as a selection of wine, spirits and spritz cocktails that can be catered to your event.
264/270 Railway Parade, West Leederville
Crystal Club
Book this room for the views alone! The super schmick private dining room at the exclusive Crystal Club comes with a connecting outdoor terrace that’s the ultimate spot for sunset views. The custom-made marble table seats up to 12 guests with luxurious velvet chairs, or if you’re after a cocktail style celebration, the venue can cater for up to 35 guests.
