Why Little Creatures Elizabeth Quay Is Becoming Perth’s New Favourite Spot for Functions
A Fresh Take on Events in the Heart of the CBD
There’s something special about hosting an event right on the edge of Elizabeth Quay. The breeze off the water, the skyline rising behind it, and the hum of the foreshore all create a sense of occasion before your guests even step through the door. Little Creatures Elizabeth Quay has taken that natural energy and paired it with the hospitality people already love from the Fremantle original. The result is a venue that feels familiar yet exciting, relaxed yet polished, and perfectly suited to functions of any size.
The venue has been brought to life through a collaboration with Three Pound Group, blending the creativity of a local hospitality powerhouse with the iconic personality of Little Creatures. It’s casual, it’s fun, and it has the flexibility to transform into whatever you need — a corporate gathering, a milestone celebration, a big family lunch or a long overdue catch-up with the people who matter most. There’s no rigid mould for events here. Instead, the space adapts to the mood, size and style of your group.
A Location That Instantly Elevates Any Occasion
Planning an event in the CBD used to mean choosing between convenience and atmosphere. Little Creatures Elizabeth Quay gives you both. The venue sits on The Esplanade, surrounded by water, greenery and the evolving buzz of the quay. Guests can wander in easily from public transport, nearby offices or weekend adventures around the city. Everything feels central yet open, with a setting that gives even small gatherings a sense of occasion.
Inside, the space carries that unmistakable Little Creatures personality — warm wood, brewery-style elements, pops of colour and a feeling that invites people to settle in and enjoy themselves. It’s stylish without being stiff, spacious without feeling empty, and versatile enough to suit everything from intimate dinners to large cocktail-style celebrations. You don’t need to dress it up much to make it look great, because the venue already does the heavy lifting.
Spaces Designed to Move With Your Event
One of the biggest strengths of Little Creatures Elizabeth Quay is how many different pockets of space it offers. Rather than locking you into a single layout or forcing your event into a shape that doesn’t suit it, the venue is designed to flow.
The Banquet Space
This area is ideal for seated functions, long lunches, team gatherings and celebrations that call for a shared table. It’s open, welcoming and sits close to the bar so the energy carries through the room nicely. According to the functions pack, this is one of the central zones that ties the venue together, offering a flexible layout without losing the warmth of the brewery atmosphere.
The Dining Area
Refined but still relaxed, the dining room gives you a more structured option without drifting into formality. It’s perfect for business lunches, presentations, and milestone dinners where guests want to settle in at a table and actually enjoy the food and conversation. The layout is clean and intuitive, giving the space an easy sophistication that works well for a broad range of event types.
Western and Eastern Terraces
For groups who prefer a more open-air or social feel, the terraces become the star. These spaces stretch out along the foreshore, offering natural light, fresh air and a more casual flow for cocktail-style events. The terraces are especially popular for evening functions, where the lights of the quay create a completely different atmosphere — one that feels relaxed, coastal and perfect for mingling.
A Venue Map Built for Flexibility
The function pack even includes an aerial layout of the venue, showcasing the thoughtful design that allows each area to work independently or connect seamlessly depending on the occasion. It’s one of the rare venues in the CBD where you can host a large group without feeling crowded or split between awkward sections. Every space is connected with intention.
Food That Brings People Together — Without Overthinking It
One of the biggest challenges when choosing a function venue is making sure the food matches the moment. Little Creatures Elizabeth Quay solves that by leaning into what it already does well: approachable, flavour-forward dishes made to be shared, enjoyed and remembered. The function menu takes inspiration from the main offerings but adapts them for events, creating a balance of familiarity and freshness.
There are options for seated dining, shared banquets and cocktail-style events, all built around seasonal produce. Rather than locking you into a single structure, the venue works with you to choose what makes sense for your event style. The canapé selection brings colour and variety to a gathering, while the larger shared menus cater to groups who want a more communal dining experience. The team is also well-equipped to handle dietary needs, ensuring that guests with preferences or restrictions feel just as included. The result is a menu that feels generous and crafted rather than generic.
Drinks That Celebrate the Little Creatures Spirit
Being a Little Creatures venue means one thing: the beer will always be good. The brewery’s classic favourites feature heavily on tap, giving your guests the full flavour experience without having to travel to Fremantle. But the drinks offering doesn’t stop there. The function pack outlines a range of beverage options that include wine, cocktails and non-alcoholic selections — all designed to suit different event styles.
Whether you want an open bar, beverage packages or a tailored drinks selection, the team can adjust the offering to your preference. You won’t need to micromanage the details; the staff understand how to keep glasses full, keep the pace comfortable and keep the mood right. The flexibility here is one of the venue’s greatest strengths, allowing you to build the experience you want without sacrificing quality.
A Functions Team That Actually Listens
Planning a function is only fun when the people guiding you know what they’re doing — and Little Creatures Elizabeth Quay delivers on that front too. The venue’s functions team is warm, practical and genuinely committed to making each event feel seamless. They’ll help you choose the right space, structure the timing, plan your food and drinks, and work within your budget to make the most of what the venue offers.
They understand that no two events are the same. Some groups want a seated dinner with a slow, relaxed pace. Others want a buzzing, social cocktail-style celebration that spills out onto the terrace. And some want a polished but easygoing corporate lunch where the food is great, the drinks are simple and the service is efficient. Whatever your vision is, the team will help shape it into something that works. Their approach is friendly and personal, but backed by the professionalism that comes with years of hospitality experience.
A Venue That Works for Any Occasion
Little Creatures Elizabeth Quay has quickly become one of the city’s most versatile function venues because it balances personality with practicality. It’s laid-back enough for birthdays and casual celebrations, yet polished enough for corporate events. Its spaces are light-filled and flexible, making it ideal for larger bookings, but it never loses that intimate, down-to-earth feeling that makes people comfortable.
Whether you’re hosting:
• A milestone birthday
• A long lunch for friends or family
• A corporate function or team event
• A product launch
• An engagement celebration
• A networking event
the venue has the room, the vibe and the hospitality to match.
The Bottom Line: A Function Venue That Feels Effortless, Vibrant and Uniquely Perth

It captures the spirit of Fremantle while bringing it into the beating heart of the CBD, framed by water, skyline and the energy of Elizabeth Quay. The food is generous, the drinks are flexible, the spaces are inspiring and the team knows how to bring the whole thing together without overcomplicating it.
If you’re planning a function — big or small, seated or social — this is the kind of venue that makes everything easy. The setting does half the work, the team does the rest, and your guests walk away feeling like they’ve been treated to something genuinely memorable.
