The venue includes a mix of bar tables, private booths and lounge seats, as well as a lush outdoor courtyard.
The Perth coastal suburb of Scarborough welcomed a new neighbourhood bar and eatery last month. Skol is located in an old heritage-style house in the space behind Drift Kitchen, and features an intimate bar and outside open dining area.
