The Shire of Laverton in Western Australia offers a limited nightlife scene, with a few noteworthy bars and clubs. One popular spot is the Great Beyond Visitor Centre and Cafe, a central and vibrant venue where visitors and locals can mingle and share stories. This place houses the Explorers Hall of Fame, highlighting the region's exploration history, and a gift shop with souvenirs and other items. Horizon's Cafe within the center serves a variety of dishes, including burgers, sandwiches, salads, wraps, and a range of hot and cold drinks, with vegetarian and gluten-free options available.
In Laverton, another prominent venue is the Desert Inn Hotel, the town's sole pub and bottle shop. The hotel has implemented temporary restrictions on takeaway sales twice since Australia Day, with limitations lasting between 24 and 72 hours. Despite these restrictions, the Desert Inn Hotel remains a favored gathering place for both locals and visitors.
