About Strange Company
Strange Company in Perth is a casual venue with late trading every day and Star Wine List recognition in 2026. For planning purposes, treat it as a flexible Perth stop rather than assuming a specific menu, service style, price point, or seating setup.
Pick it for confirmed late hours and a casual setting
The clearest planning facts are the hours, dress code, recognition. Strange Company opens from 4 PM to midnight Monday to Thursday, from 12 PM to midnight Friday to Sunday. Dress is casual, the venue has Star Wine List recognition in 2026.
Those details make it a practical option when late timing matters. Beyond that, the venue does not specify a specific cuisine, chef-led format, tasting menu, price tier, booking difficulty, take-out or delivery service, or allergy and dietary policy. Plan with those limits in mind, check directly with the venue for anything that depends on current service details.
The first-timer read: casual and useful for flexible timing
For a first visit, the main advantage is scheduling flexibility. The venue trades until midnight every day, with earlier opening from Friday to Sunday. That gives visitors more room to plan around other Perth stops without needing to make assumptions about the experience.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
Strange Company sits squarely in Fremantle’s port-side character: weathered brick, stone walls and industrial ceilings give the room built-in texture that feels authentic rather than contrived. The bar leans on program depth and the local precinct’s energy rather than high-gloss fit-out, so evenings feel layered and purposeful. Attention to a serious drinks program elevates the space, so the atmosphere reads less like a standard neighbourhood watering hole and more like a considered city bar with gravitas. The overall impression is a historically rooted, quietly refined drinking room shaped by place and provenance.
Best For
This is a spot to plan an evening around rather than stumble into. The 2026 Star Wine List recognition flags a curated wine program with real depth, and the copy explicitly frames the venue as suited to a ‘considered evening’ or ‘occasion dinner.’ Located on Nairn Street in the heart of Fremantle’s active hospitality precinct, the bar benefits from the suburb’s textured built fabric and a room that supports the weight of a special night. If you’re celebrating or focusing on a wine-led experience, Strange Company is a deliberate choice.

Bar context
How it compares
Choose Nieuw Ruin or Madalena's Bar when the night needs to feel more food-led. Strange Company is the better call when the decision is mainly about drinks and easy access in Fremantle, especially for a first stop where the group may not want a heavy dining commitment.
Little Creatures Brewery, Fremantle is the safer pick for larger, more casual groups that want a broader-format venue and a less bar-focused mood. Strange Company is more suitable for smaller groups who care about cocktails or wine and do not need the scale of a brewery setting.
Keep Pep's and Verandah Bar as cross-shops if the priority is simply securing a nearby bar plan without fuss. For value, Strange Company's edge is not a published price point; it is the combination of easy booking, late trading, Star Wine List-recognised drinks depth.
