Guildford
Perched on the banks of both the Swan and Helena Rivers it is described as the gateway to the Swan Valley. Guildford is one of Western Australia's oldest settlements. While it has been absorbed into the Perth metropolitan area, it still retains its distinctiveness with many historical buildings and excellent pubs, restaurants and cafes. The whole of Guildford is now a designated heritage locality, with the quaint James St shopping strip being a good example of the streetscape of the older Guildford.

Alfred's Kitchen
Since 1946 this place has been serving burgers to hungry insomniacs at the small counter with a log fire burning in front. The food is good and not just because everything else is shut at 1AM.
