Where Irish Charm Meets Legendary Steaks
If you’re craving hearty Irish fare, succulent steaks, and a warm pub atmosphere, look no further than Fibber McGee’s in Northbridge. This iconic Irish pub and steakhouse isn’t just a place to grab a Guinness – it’s a full-blown flavour experience that might just ruin you for any other steak in Perth.
First Things First – Let’s Talk Steaks
Fibber McGee’s doesn’t mess around when it comes to meat. Their dry-aged steaks are legendary. And we’re not talking about your average pub steak here – these beauties are aged in-house for a minimum of 31 days. Picture this: slabs of prime beef hanging in a custom coolroom, with salt blocks drawing out moisture and intensifying flavour like some kind of meat magic trick.
Their Koji-aged ribeye is a must-try. Koji (fermented rice) takes things up a notch, tenderising the meat even further and creating a depth of flavour that’s out of this world. Fancy something classic? Go for the Dry Aged Sirloin or Fillet Steak – chargrilled and served with hand-cut chips, onion rings, mushrooms, and greens if you choose. Oh, and let’s not forget the blue cheese butter or red wine jus that’ll have you licking the plate (no judgment here).
Starters Worth Sharing
While you wait for that steak to hit the grill, indulge in some classic Irish starters. The Organic Pork Terrine & Chicken Liver Pate is rich and velvety, paired perfectly with apple chutney. If you're here with mates, the Fibber’s Sharing Plate is the way to go – a mix of chorizo, dips, and olives that’s basically an edible hug.
Pan-fried chorizo with rich house-made butter? Absolutely.
Mains That Stick to Your Ribs (Literally)
For mains, you can’t go past the 12-hour cooked beef ribs. Sticky, smoky, and served with blue cheese mash – this dish is the definition of indulgence. The Braised Lamb Shank with garlic mash and root veggies is another crowd-pleaser, perfect for those nights when only comfort food will do.
But let’s not overlook the pub classics – the Steak & Stout Pie is rich, hearty, and feels like a warm hug from an Irish grandmother. The Homemade Irish Pork Sausages with pea mash and bacon? Absolute comfort on a plate.
And while we know the irish are fond of their carbs, for the purists reading, these hearty meals will leave your completely satisfied sans the sides.
Farm to Fork Vibes
Here’s the kicker – Fibber McGee’s owns and operates Drumlane Organic Farm in the Perth Hills. Their cattle (a cross between Belted Galloway and Highland beef) are grass-fed and aged for over 2.5 years, resulting in meat that’s packed with flavour. When their farm-fresh beef or Wessex Saddleback pork hits the menu, order it immediately.
Why You Need to Go
Fibber McGee’s isn’t just another Irish pub – it’s a steakhouse with serious culinary cred. Whether you’re here for the dry-aged ribeye or just a pint of Guinness, you’re in for one hell of a meal.
So, grab your mates, book a table, and prepare to have your steak-loving mind blown. Sláinte!
