We had such high hopes that under new management Hopscotch would step up its game. Alas no. Stopping by into.an almost empty bar on a weekend afternoon we noted the new screens with thankfully muted sound and set ourselves up for what we hoped would be a great reintroduction to our local. A cocktail each later hopes were beginning to wane, but were not extinguished. Unfortunately they soon were. We ordered a glass of wine from a very limited selection of wine "by the glass", and decided to try the "famous" chicken skewers and steak sandwich. The skewers were bland and were accompanied by a coconut dipping sauce which was less than subtle. We would rather have had a shot of Malibu on the side...
Went for drinks and lunch on a Sunday afternoon. Nice venue, menu was varied and reasonably priced, quality was not good however, very disappointing, quite bland rather thrown together and the food which should have been served hot was not. We were the only 4 who appeared to be eating so no excuses in the kitchen. It's a shame as it is in an ideal location and has plenty of parking and should really be making an effort to capture the locals. Needs the management to shake it up a bit and concentrate on the quality of the food and definitely need to address the bar staff who really did not seem too enthusiastic about being there. Everything seemed too much trouble. Would we go back, well I thi...
Have been to the bar several times and it tended to be fairly noisy. There were a number of things done, but then stopped such as Sunday breakfast, and although the initial staff were very good, the last couple of times the service was very hit and miss. We had to chase the bar staff to get served and prices were variable for the same drink.It can also get very noisy with the crown and background music. I understand that it has changed hands and hopefully some of these items will be addressed.
I visited Hopscotch with a friend for a few drinks. We had a few beers from the tap, but they were a cut above the usual tap beers, including Peroni, the popular Italian beer. You can run a tab and settle at the end of the night, which makes for convenient drinking. The bar had a buzz without being loud. The decor was modernist without being brutal. We decided that we would visit Hop Scotch for another drink in the next few weeks.

New owners but clearly, they have not taken note of why the previous did not travel well. First glass of 'bubbles' $7 each - 2nd - $14. Never assume that because of middle-age we do not note. We do. When queries I was informed that 2nd was 'top shelf' - not good enough. Please, ask. Doubt we will bother to return again. Not happy Jan!!!
I've been here twice now and both times have been great. Service is friendly and prices are fairly reasonable. It's a tapas menu with 3 main meals if you're after something more substantial - the food is delicious! Looking forward to going back again!
We visited for the first time and we were only popping in for a quiet drink and a snack. Food was good size and really fresh. Good selection of cocktails and wine by the glass. Will visit again when next in Perth. Good atmosphere too.
Popped in here on Friday night for a quick bite to eat and I gotta say,was pretty impressed! Wish it existed when I loved in south perth.
This bar has an

This was my second visit and I was just as impressed as the first timeThe bar is very stylish and I love the mix of people that you get in here.
Hop on down to the new local!
So technically this is no longer my local for now but hopefully will be in future as we left in good spirits.
