It was the epitome of Perth’s social scene in the 40’s and 50’s, in the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s it was a beer barn and a venue for some of Australia’s loudest and wildest rock and roll bands. Today, the Raffles is an award winning, upmarket restaurant and bar and a 17 storey landmark that once had the highest sale price for a penthouse apartment in Perth at $6.7 million.
