• Cherubino City Cellar is a hidden gem off Rokeby Road, run by renowned WA winemaker Larry Cherubino. It’s both a boutique bottle shop and an intimate wine bar, perfect for tastings or private dinners.
• In-house sommeliers like Simone Ratti can match wine to your dinner menu or help you plan a whole evening upstairs at the City Cellar’s private function space.
• Subiaco is home to a growing number of local favourites including Commune Wine Store, Plane Tree Farm’s pop-up produce, and Subi Farmers Market every Saturday.
• Many venues offer home delivery, so your cheese, wine, florals, and final additions can arrive straight to your door, making hosting easy.
• Whether it’s a lavish dinner party or a casual get-together, Subiaco has all the ingredients to make your winter evening unforgettable.
