Live music bar
👍👍 I've been here as a punter and performer. Underrated. Criminally underrated. The sound is great(duh, it doubles as a recording space), the staff are friendly and I popped my Mezcal cherry here so let's call it more than just a casual hang out spot. The band room isn't massive and the stage is set lo...

👍👍 Stopped in Cow Town on our way back to Busselton for a rest stop and went window shopping down main shopping areas and thought we'd step into the Servo Taphouse to check out what was on offer and try some of their beverages on offer. The barman was very pleasant and helpful in selecting our drinks a...

👍👍 Great bar and music venue with a nice selection of craft beers. The band room is small and intimate with great accostics. I'm looking forward to visiting it again soon. It doesn't have a kitchen, but you're welcome to BYO food from the local eateries.

👍👍 We held our engagement party at The Mix Bar. I wish we could rate well above 5 stars. We used the outside area and it was just stunning and was set up to accommodate our guests so well. The customer service provided by the staff was absolutely amazing- in particular the owner, Mick. Nothing was too...

😐 Pizza was pretty tasty, good crust. Not impressed with the size of the $25 pepperoni or the garlic pizza which was sad and in pieces.

😠 I am in a wheelchair and tried to enter these premises on Friday night. Only to be refused entry and the reason I was given was "that they don't have the proper insurance." This sounds ludicrous to me. Sounds like blatant discrimination which is illegal. You either have public liability insurance or...

👍 Great atmosphere with an interesting layout, outdoor, indoor, upstairs, downstairs seating. Tried the $50 feed me. Overall was quite worth it. Buns were so soft and buttery, really liked it. Cabbage was seasoned well with parmesan cheese and crispy pancetta. Arincini was small but crispy and came wi...

👍👍 I didn’t even know this was an lgbtq bar when I arrived. I wasn’t gay when I got there. But after a great night of food, drink and woman, I sure am now! Great place.
