Ball and Chain

The Ball and Chain occupies a significant site on the corner of Marine Terrace and Collie Street in Fremantle. This establishment features restored timber interiors and original brickwork that reflect the colonial history of the Western Australian coast. Visitors find a variety of draught beers, spirits, and wines, alongside a menu focused on classic pub fare prepared with local ingredients. The venue maintains a connection to the local community through its preservation of the original building's character and its position within the city’s historic entertainment precinct. Situated directly opposite the Esplanade Hotel and a short walk from the Fremantle Markets, the pub provides a convenient stop for those exploring the port city. The outdoor seating area offers views across the trees of Esplanade Park, making it a functional choice for families and groups during daylight hours. Its proximity to the Fremantle Fishing Boat Harbour ensures it remains a key fixture for residents and tourists navigating the heritage-listed West End district.
