If there needed to be any sign that the small bars craze had reached rapture point, then see this. Could someone really call it The Boheme? (aka “Teh ‘Heme”) You’d think it would be hard to go worse than the name Bobby Dazzlers. The whole Wentworth Plaza redevelopment is looking pretty sick. The barest sliver of facade is finding it difficult to conceal a a monster of concrete behind. The Boheme. Kill me now. Oh god, there’s even a fucking accent on the e. By Bento.

Probably go down a treat with the young uns. I would have preferred Le Boheme’.
why do we get ‘Le Boatshed’ but ‘The Boheme’ ?
no doubt it will become known as La Bogane
that’s if the Raine Square development ever gets finished.
who’s the developer? oh yes…
Seems like a fine place to show off my new mustache.
A better name would probably be The Künts.
oh, is that the wrong accent? difficult to tell from distance but it looks like acute rather than grave
classy
I can’t tell either, but it may be a circumflex used to denote the geographic Bohême, rather than Murger’s preference for a grave accent to specify the conceptual bohème. Regardless, why isn’t it The Bohême Food House & Drinkery ?
Perth would go for Ye Olde Boheme.
No, Nedlands and Armadale have the Mock Tudor thing sewn up.
Perth would go for Boheme 557.
In Freo it would be Le Hobo.
yeah that does make it the Bahayme, doesn’t it. Gross
I for one am saddened that Bobby Dazzler’s has closed.
It was delightfully kitsch and reliable the few times I walked in.
Same with Horsefeathers and…. whatever that place was tucked around the back of Raine Square (The Garage?).
At least Sasella’s is safe, right? And Hickey’s?
Perth is losing all of it’s “classics”.
(In case anyone hasn’t mentioned it, the Great Wall of Maylands, http://theworstofperth.com/2007/10/05/%E9%95%BF%E5%9F%8E-the-great-wall-at-maylands/ was demolished two days ago.)
utopia? is there some form of night club planned as well?
Mo-topia.
Red Tape Strangles Perth bars.
But, but, but……..
Surely, closing most of the Northbridge ‘venues’ would be in the public interest.
Let’s be grateful for the red tape. We would be ball deep in small bars otherwise.
fabulous piece by Shallow Spice on the frustrations of opening a small bar:
http://www.watoday.com.au/entertainment/restaurants-and-bars/new-perth-bars-fail-the-public-interest-test-20101019-16s5j.html
two uses of ‘vibrancy’, two uses of ‘classy’, another misspelled faux-French venue called ‘LouVe’ (the first instance of bogan spelling in a bar?) and an egregious misspelling of ‘definitely’ IN CAPITALS
Opened the link, saw the content, thenclosed the page.
Did she actually say sump’n?
Not to mention numerous quotes DARECTLY and SCRUPULASLY ‘sourced’ from Facebook
And what’s a quite venue ?
she needed to use “sic” several times. Fully sic.
Don’t say Labia Legal has got in on the act. No wonder bogans have only the Ling to drink at now.
” Shift changeover, maintenance standown or cyclone you’ve got a thirst and you’ve got it now , your Emu Export is waiting …… at the Ling”.
Your Speights would be waiting Lingside
May I further add that the Department of Racing, Gaming and Liquor requiring that a
“public interest factor [be] determined whether the granting of the licence had the potential to increase alcohol-related harm and/or any offence, annoyance, disturbance or inconvenience that might be caused to people who reside in the vicinity of the proposed licensed premises.” is an outrage and a scoundrel, and that citizens should have the right to get maggoted wherever and whenever they feel.

Good work Bento. Seeyas down the ‘Heem!
twop drinks on the kerb outside the heem?
the heema-roid
Now that’s classy vegan.
after a few drinks i’m sure there will be shoving…
My thoughts exactly.
Goon bags for everyone?
Right on. I”LL DRINK WHERE I WANT OFFISHER I”M A FUGGIN BOHEEME
Noticed this last week and thought it well worst worthy. I’ll miss Bobby Dazzler’s, to an extent – probably all the more once The Boheme is in place. one40william casts long shadows, that’s for sure.
That sound you can hear is Puccini rolling in his grave.
Rolling in vomit.
Pavarotti’s vomit.
Kev spewing into Shelley’s armpit and taking polaroids.
sokay ocifer, its bohemian, I’m from Pilzen
Just terrible. Bunbury terrible.
Yes. Bunbury terrible is exactly what it is.
The original Wentworth Hotel was next door to the Bohemia Hotel on Murray St-now demolished -always a popular venue on the St Georges College pubathon and RUBarking
a modernised link to the past?
perhaps a dumbed down link.
I hope the opening of The Boheme is not delayed by this. The sign was gone when i walked past the other day.

File that one under , “Couldn’t happen to nicer people”. Skink will have the details no doubt.
Just another CBD venue that will be charging over $10 for a pint!
It’d time the people of Perth voted with their feet, and let these overpriced venues stay empty for a few weeks.
That might just bring the price of a pint down to a resonale level…say $6.
Visitors from the UK who pay 2-3 quid overthere end up paying over 6 quid here for a pint…outrageous!!!
I know where that is anyone want me to post the old Dianella Pub on here.
