Located in the heart of Mt Lawley's cafe strip, The Pony Club has established itself as one of Perth’s most popular venues. The chesterfields, chandeliers, oil paintings and that ever present hint of equestrian glamour, it is a nice surprise to find such relaxed and friendly service in such beautiful surroundings. The restaurant is complemented by a private dining space upstairs, which caters for groups of 30-100 guests which is proving an equally popular venue for small private weddings as it is for corporate entertainers.

The Food

The food at the Pony Club is a modern Australian reinvention of traditional Spanish tapas with plenty of variety and inspiration from around the globe. With a wine list comprising of a mix of boutique European and Australian labels the menu should delight everyone from the casual diner to the certified 'foodie'. The fantastic tapas style menu is available for lunch from 12pm Friday to Sunday and Dinner from 6pm, Wednesday to Sunday.

To ensure the highest standards of food quality and service, dinner service on Saturdays is now by banquet style only. We offer a $50pp banquet menu that is changed weekly according to the seasonal availability of market produce.
