Cook Mason - EAST FREMANTLE

Hi folks...felt I had to get a review online for this great restaurant as they looked after us so well for lunch this past Mothers Day. This was our first visit, a vegan , a vegetarian and two hungry omnivores. Expected a hectic lunch with frenetic service but from the time I arrived (early) we were made to feel welcome, relaxed and pampered ! It was a stunning warm afternoon sitting at an outside table. Our waitress was charming, patient and knowledgeable. We ordered  sourdough bread (a must), Delicata pumpkin (vegetarians favourite), Brussel sprouts (almond cream sensational), Pea tendril salad (honey dressing a dream) , Roast cauliflower (big and filling), omnivores only ordered a one seafood dish Mussels in a wonderful spicy broth (mopping up with fresh sourdough was my favourite food moment). We shared just one dessert with our coffees a beautiful berry semi freddo which was a great way to finish. For wine , the freshness of the voignier and the rose were a perfect on a warm day. Apologies only a few dishes were photographed in our rush to eat. My partner and I often talk about there being two kinds of restaurants. The first kind serves diners plates which have no love in them ie. whomever is in the kitchen doesn't really care. The second kind, into which Cook and Mason fit neatly, is a restaurant that present diners with plates that shine with pride, attention to detail and a love of cuisine. The bill came to about $200 for 4 a pleasant surprise. All in all can't recommend Cook and Mason highly enough.

A beautiful establishment with delicious food. Craig looked after us and kept us well fed and kept the drinks flowing. We had the chefs selection which provided us with a great variety of dishes. Definitely recommend this culinary experience.

Fantastic night what a wonderful place to spend a evening. Can't wight to Ho for breakfast . Nice and well done to the kitchen and front of house team

I was initially disappointed to hear that Barque had closed as it was fantastic. But this is a more than special replacement. Food is delicious, service is impeccable and the whisky sours are top notch! The stand out aspect has to be the care and attention the owners and chefs put into the ethical and sustainable sourcing of ingredients which positively impacts the environment as well as the flavour of the food. I'll be heading back here again, more than once.

Cook Mason where to begin... Situated opposite the heritage/derelict Royal George building this restaurant/bar has all the charm of a hip drinking establishment in the heart of Carlton VIC. I came for the brews, stayed for the service and left because it was getting late. My advice: Kick off your weekend here for lunch and stay until the late hours of the evening! A George St gem that’s here to stay!
