Job description
A boisterous beer corner, a halcyon home for wine, and a lively, all-day kitchen for everything in-between.
Inside the historic State Buildings — a destination steeped in the cultural history of Perth, you’ll find contemporary Australian eatery Petition, together with Wine Merchant and Beer Corner.
With a name that nods to its Barrack Street location — what was once a place where crowds would congregate and lobby over 100 years ago, Petition celebrates and curates what’s local and seasonal, with a menu that stretches from early morning, right through to the evening hours.
Petition’s menu showcases our local produce and the people who grow and cultivate it. The selection of dishes is tightly edited to share only the very best of that day or moment in time, combining the familiar with the unexpected in a way that intrigues and comforts simultaneously.
