As you walk through the front door, the first impression is a spartan bar, that doesn't have much to offer and you couldn't be more wrong.
Walking through the bar each member of staff welcomes you and you look around at the decoration and design you realise that you have stumbled into a hidden treasure.
Close to Mosman Park Train station and the 98/00 and 103 bus routes, Samson's Paddock holds the premier position in a row of shops just off the Stirling highway. With an extensive outside area and an excellent kitchen, this place could be straight off 'Grand Designs'. The multi level outside area is heated by log fires and patio heaters in the winter and covered with parasols and awnings in the summer. It really is a all year round drinking nirvana strategically positioned between Perth and Fremantle.
Reasonably priced wine specials are a plus though the overpriced beer does let this place down. Dish, Wine, Whiskey and Beer of the week is a bonus. The menu offers an excellent selection of nibbles, shares and meals which are made with local and seasonal produce.
We went for a pint of Trumers, an Austrian Pilsner, at 4.9% it just slides down and disappears just that bit too quickly, leaving you asking for another and trying to recall how many you have consumed. This place is well worth a trip to Mosman Park and there is plenty of on-street parking on the nearby streets.
Peter says "The kind of place you go back to time and time again, a friendly welcome and good service complements the good drink selection, highly recommend."
Tony says "A lovely little local for anyone living near by, I wish I was that little closer so I could fall into that category."
