K ON HAY - MORE THAN OK!
The Comfort Hotel Perth City is the home of this delightful Café & Bar fronting onto Hay St, just the causeway side of Bennett St , in East Perth . The first thing you notice, when you walk in, is the wall behind the bar, which is studded with stone pebbles. It's very unusual, and quite stunning. The café is modern, light and airy, with a small al fresco area outside, and a unique function room accessible though glass doors, which is often booked for parties. The atmosphere is very relaxed, fun, interesting, and friendly, and customer service is a priority for the staff.
Surrounded by other hotels and apartments, whose occupants (including lots of interstate cricketers, baseball players, swimmers and soccer players) are frequently seen visiting K on Hay, the venue is open for breakfast and dinner seven days a week.
