About this Beaufort Street guide

An independent, research-led guide to Beaufort Street and the neighbourhoods it runs through.

This guide helps locals and visitors get more out of Beaufort Street, one of Perth’s best-known inner-city streets. We write about the neighbourhoods it passes through, the heritage buildings that line it, its cinema and laneway art, and the practical side of visiting.

Our history

The beaufortstreet.com.au domain was previously used by the Beaufort Street Network, a community and trader group that ran the Beaufort Street Festival and promoted the precinct. That site went offline, and this independent guide was relaunched on the domain in 2026. We have rewritten every page from fresh research and kept old web addresses working where possible. We are not the Beaufort Street Network, and we do not speak for it, for the City of Vincent or the City of Stirling, or for any business.

How we research

We draw on the Western Australian State Heritage Office’s inHerit database, City of Vincent and City of Stirling local history resources, the City of Vincent Local History Centre, published planning documents and reputable media reporting. Each guide lists its sources.

We do not invent quotes, statistics, prices or reviews, and we do not rank businesses. Businesses on Beaufort Street open, close and change hands often, so we focus on places and history rather than listings.
