The Lucky Shag Waterfront Bar takes it's name from the cormorant bird that is often seen on and around the river from the bar itself. One story has it that when the name for the bar was being decided a shag swooped down into the water and emerged with two fish, someone immediately said "Gee, that's a lucky shag" and the name was born. Of course there are other stories as to how the bar got it's name but they'll leave you to figure that out !!
The Lucky Shag Bar has been fantastically located on the water at Barrack Street Jetty for 10 years and has grown froma small 30 - 40 person drinking hole to the venue it is now and along the way become a firm Perth favorite with locals and tourists alike.
The venue is a very popular spot especially during the summer months, where you'd be hard pressed to find a more relaxed place this close to the bustling CBD.
The Lucky Shag Waterfront Bar is a walk-in friendly venue and as such is unable to take table reservations or bookings.
