Sail and Anchor Hotel, Heritage pub in Fremantle, Australia
The Sail and Anchor Hotel is a heritage pub building featuring Federation-style architecture at the corner of South Terrace in Fremantle. The structure spans three levels with wooden staircases, decorative pressed tin ceilings, and separate bar areas distributed throughout the floors.
The building was constructed in 1903 to replace an earlier pub that stood on the site since 1854. It underwent major restoration work in the 1980s that brought it back to its original condition.
The pub holds its place in local life as a gathering spot where people come together to taste beers from nearby breweries. It represents how this port city celebrates its connections to craft brewing traditions.
The venue contains separate spaces suitable for casual visits or group gatherings, including a balcony area and dedicated rooms throughout the building. Each section can serve different purposes depending on what you are looking for when you arrive.
The pub stands out for having some of Australia's most advanced beer-serving systems installed alongside its historic character. From the restored wraparound balcony, you can watch street performers and the activity of this working port city below.
