James Street in Northbridge, an inner-city suburb just north of Perth CBD, in fact about a 2 minute walk over the train tracks. It promotes itself as a separate area though from Perth. Northbridge is known as the bar and restaurant hub of Perth, as well as backpacker-central, with at least a dozen hostels within a few small blocks of each other.
