South Street

South Street 

Best known for its family-owned pubs, bars and eateries, South Street once made up a significant section of Perth’s old Pub Mile.  

Whatever happens to be tickling at your tastebuds you’re sure to find it at an Indie on South Street; from a Chateaubriand to a Thai curry, a proper full breakfast to a bistro-style burger, it’s all right here.  

For the shoppers, three excellent specialists make up the retail mix. Miss Forsyth has been fitting ladies into swimwear, sleepwear, bras and knickers for almost three decades, and they are joined by new neighbours, Ceri M Creations selling their own, hand thrown, ceramics, and Bonnie Moon Crystals who offer a great choice in alternative gifts.    

And of course, a visit to Perth wouldn’t be complete without a pit-stop for an award-winning Murrays Pie! 

Also leads to: The Cafe Quarter, Hospital Street 

For a flavour of South Street, check out this great video short from Kay Gillespie, The Chaotic Scot, who spent two days in Perth city enjoying shopping - and eating! - with our fabulous independent businesses.

Ceri M Creations 

Owned by Ceri McEwan 

This beautiful pottery shop, opened in 2023, stocks the owner’s wonderful ceramic creations as well as offering pottery workshops and classes.  

The brainchild of Ceri McEwan, who discovered her passion for pottery in 2021 via The Great Pottery Throwdown – and a little side of YouTube – after which she impulsively purchased a pottery wheel! 

After hours and weeks of practice, Ceri unleashed her inner maker and, having mastered her pottery skills, began to establish her own unique ceramics style.

The results can be seen quite clearly in her lovely shop where you will find a wide range of her handmade mugs, travel cups, shot cups, wee bowls, spoon rests and vases, all in fantastic colours.  

All products are food safe, dishwasher safe and microwave safe.
