A very suitable venue for your next  function

The Principal takes its name from the original headmaster quarters of one of the oldest schools in Midland, built in 1901.  Now recognised with heritage listing, this gorgeous building has
maintained its yesteryear charm and beauty since reinventing itself as The Principal Bar and Restaurant in 2009 – the perfect setting for your next function.

Our unique facilities can be tailored to suit any occasion, from formal dinners or casual get-togethers, to birthdays, anniversaries, engagement parties and all in-between.

At the gateway to the Swan Valley we offer a range of local wines & our own craft beers along with a premium selection of other beers, wines & spirits.  We can provide you with canapés & platters or a sit down meal from a la carte to set menu.

We are conveniently located across from Midland Gate Shopping Centre, and just a five-minute walk from Midland Train Station.

Let us help you to celebrate in style.
