The Aviary.. red umbrellas in the city.




In total contrast to yesterdays destination The Aviary bar and restaurant is not in a heritage building in one of Perth's oldest suburbs but right slap bang in the city in the one of the newest additions to the Perth cityscape 140William. The contemporary architecture and eco-friendly design of 140 couldn't be more different from the Victorian elegance of the Peninsula Hotel. Neither could the clientele, the Dome a family friendly, casual environment.. the Aviary attracting the younger, trendier customers. Something for everyone in Perth :) Hope you've had a good weekend, happy Monday, take care and stay safe...

  1. It's so nice that you have a variety of cafes and restaurants for the people of Perth. I would like either this or the Dome depending on my mood on any given day. Love the red umbrellas...they're enticing and have a certain sexiness about them!

  6. Rooftop restaurants are a joy, esp if there is a decent view. Looks like this one has a vantage point for people watching. Red umbrellas are always eye-catching. We have several umbrellas yet I want out to buy a red one because it gives me a lift on a rainy day..

  9. I do like those umbrellas, Grace!
    We have several heritage neighborhoods here and it ensures that the flavour of the district can't be changed.

  27. It's lovely to see a little bit of colour in the city isn't it? I think we could use more colour in then neighbourhoods in Bayswater! It would definitely make a difference to our daily commute!
