Wine, Food and Riverside Views: Discover The Reveley
Perth’s Elizabeth Quay is home to many iconic sights, but few stand out quite like The Reveley. Rising over the waterfront with three distinct levels, the casual Boardwalk, the refined Dining Room and Rooftop, and the relaxed Low Kee Café, The Reveley has become a go-to destination for people who want great food, a wide choice of drinks, and some of the best views in the city.
This isn’t a venue that takes itself too seriously. While the wine list is impressive and the menu showcases plenty of WA produce, The Reveley’s charm is that it feels approachable. It’s a place where you can sip Champagne on the Rooftop one night and enjoy pizza and a pint on the Boardwalk the next. Whether you’re celebrating or just catching up with mates, the combination of food, drink and setting makes it an easy choice.
Let’s take a closer look at what makes The Reveley tick, from its wine and drinks list to the food that brings it all together.
A Wine List Made to Be Enjoyed
Wine at The Reveley is about options, not intimidation. The list has been curated to cover a wide range of tastes and budgets, with a particular focus on WA favourites alongside Australian classics and a few international gems.
On a warm Perth day, nothing beats a crisp white. Sauvignon Blanc from Margaret River and Marlborough are reliable crowd-pleasers, offering that citrusy freshness that works perfectly with seafood or a light salad. For something more rounded, Chardonnay is well represented, from McHenry Hohnen’s “Rocky Road” to Leeuwin Estate’s Art Series. Riesling also features strongly, with bottles like the Margaret River “Art Series” offering a zesty, aromatic kick that’s ideal for summer dining.
If sparkling is more your style, the options range from a casual Villa Fresco Prosecco to premium Champagne like Moët & Chandon. There are also Pet Nats from Margaret River for those who like something a little funkier. These wines pair effortlessly with oysters on the Rooftop or pizza on the Boardwalk.
Red wine drinkers aren’t forgotten. The list covers everything from light and juicy Pinot Noir to bold Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. WA producers like Vasse Felix and McHenry Hohnen feature prominently, alongside South Australian and international reds. If you’re looking for something celebratory but still approachable, a chilled Grenache or Vallee Du Venom’s “Tinta Cao” chilled red makes for a refreshing change.
The point is, there’s no right or wrong way to order wine at The Reveley. You don’t need to be a connoisseur, just pick what you enjoy. Staff are always happy to offer a suggestion, but the menu is designed to make wine easy, not complicated.
Food to Match the Setting
The Reveley offers different menus depending on where you sit, but the overall approach is consistent: simple, generous dishes that work as well with a casual beer as they do with a bottle of wine.
The Boardwalk
Downstairs on the Boardwalk, the focus is on casual dining. It’s the perfect spot for groups meeting up before an event at Elizabeth Quay or just winding down after work. The menu is built around share plates and favourites that go well with a drink, from a Swan Draught to a crisp rosé.
You’ll find crowd-pleasers like marinated local olives, a basket of chips with aioli, or stone baked Turkish bread with hummus and za’atar. For something more substantial, there are Arkady lamb meatballs with eggplant kasundi, crumbed whiting tacos with chipotle mayo, and crispy squid with tartare and lemon.
Bigger plates include fried chicken burgers with sriracha and pickles, Stirling Ranges beef burgers with bacon and cheese, and beer battered blue grenadier with chips and salad. If you feel like something a little more indulgent, there’s a WA cheese share plate, freshly shucked oysters, or a cured meats plate with pickles.
It’s relaxed, social food that doesn’t take itself too seriously, the kind of dishes that suit a pre-show drink, a sunny afternoon, or an easy dinner with mates.
The Rooftop
Head upstairs and the vibe shifts. The Rooftop is all about elevated grazing, perfect for sunsets and special occasions. The menu leans toward pizzas, bites, and small plates that suit a glass of wine or a cocktail at golden hour.
On the pizza list you’ll find classics like margherita with fresh basil, Hawaiian with smoky ham and pineapple, pepperoni with rocket and crispy capers, or tiger prawn with chilli and garlic. There are also options like mushroom with pesto and parmesan, or tandoori chicken topped with mint raita.
If you’re after smaller plates, the bites menu includes freshly shucked oysters with shallot mignonette, buffalo cauliflower bites with ranch, pork and fennel sausage rolls with smoky tomato relish, tempura eggplant bao buns, and a buttermilk fried chicken burger with sriracha and pickles.
While the food feels a little more playful than downstairs, it’s still designed to be shared and enjoyed. Pair a crisp Margaret River Chardonnay with seafood, or match a bold Shiraz with sausage rolls or pizza. The point isn’t to follow strict rules, it’s about enjoying good food and drink in one of Perth’s most scenic spots.
Low Kee
For a more laid-back experience, Low Kee serves up share plates, fresh seafood, and comforting classics. It’s the kind of place you can wander into for lunch with a coffee, kombucha, or a crisp lager and enjoy food that feels generous without being overcomplicated.
Think house focaccia with balsamic, crispy squid with saffron aioli, or Shark Bay scallops with Café de Paris butter. For something richer, there’s pumpkin ravioli with goats curd, duck ragu gnocchi, or Amelia Park lamb rump with ricotta. If you’re sharing, the slow-cooked Arkady lamb shoulder is a favourite centrepiece, while a WA cheese plate or artisan cured meats board rounds things out.
Low Kee is especially popular for its relaxed vibe, making it ideal for families or casual catch-ups. With sides like shoestring fries, charred broccolini, or a simple winter leaf salad, plus kids’ options covered upstairs at The Boardwalk - there’s something for everyone.
Why The Reveley Works
What makes The Reveley stand out isn’t just its location, though the sweeping views over the Swan River and city skyline certainly don’t hurt. It’s the fact that the venue works for so many different occasions.
If you’re after a casual catch-up, the Boardwalk offers pizzas, burgers and beers in a relaxed riverside setting.
For date nights or special occasions, the Rooftop provides polished mains, oysters and Champagne with unbeatable views.
And when you just want something easy and fun, Low Kee has you covered with share plates, burgers and tacos.
Each level feels distinct, but the underlying theme is the same: good food, good drinks, and an atmosphere that’s welcoming rather than intimidating.
A Venue for Every Celebration
The Reveley is also a popular spot for celebrations, from birthdays to corporate events. The flexibility of three levels means groups can find the right balance of casual and formal, and the menus offer plenty of options for sharing. Whether it’s grazing on oysters and sparkling wine on the Rooftop, or pizzas and pints on the Boardwalk, the venue adapts to the occasion.
And while the wine and cocktail list is a draw, The Reveley has never been about overcomplicating things. You won’t find sommelier jargon or an expectation that you follow pairing “rules.” Instead, the approach is simple: order what you enjoy, and let the food and views do the rest.
To Wrap Up
The Reveley has become one of Perth’s most versatile venues for good reason. With its riverside setting, three unique levels, and a food and drink offering that balances quality with approachability, it’s a place that works for just about any occasion.
If you’re a wine lover, the list is broad enough to keep you interested, but never overwhelming. If you’re more of a cocktail or beer drinker, there’s just as much to enjoy. And when it comes to food, from casual pizzas to refined seafood and hearty mains, the menus cover all bases.
So next time you’re at Elizabeth Quay, take a moment to stop at The Reveley. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite downstairs, celebrating with bubbles on the Rooftop, or enjoying a laid-back burger at Low Kee, you’ll find that The Reveley makes wine, food and views come together in a way that feels effortless, and very Perth.
