The section of South Terrace from the corner of Bannister Street to Parry Street in Fremantle is renowned as the Cappuccino Strip, where Nunzio Gumina applied for (and got) the city's very first al fresco dining license in 1977 for Old Papa's café (now Grill'd).
The Cappuccino Strip is Fremantle's action-packed centre. Here buskers, street performers, and heritage-listed stall holders are every bit as revered as the award-winning restaurants and charming small bars that line the street.
It is the home of alfresco dining in Western Australia, and the street is lined with restaurants, pubs and breweries including the famous Sail and Anchor which launched Australia's first contemporary craft brewery, Matilda Bay Brewing Company, and transformed the Australian beer landscape for good.
The Cappuccino Strip is also home to a range of shops covering everything from fashion to souvenirs. Don't forget to wander through PIAZZA Fremantle, a newly established artist precinct featuring art, workshops, independent stores and culinary delights.
At the northern end of the strip is the historic Fremantle Markets featuring more than 150 stalls. Dating back to 1897 and still housed in one of only two surviving municipal market buildings in WA, the market is considered a must for locals and tourists alike.
The Cappuccino Strip is a five-minute walk from Fremantle Train station.
