Adorable footage has emerged of a Kangaroo trying to get behind the bar at John Forrest Tavern, in Perth’s eastern suburbs.

One of the regular kangaroos, named Matt, was captured hoping in the back door by employee Katie.

“Look mate, I keep telling ya, you don’t work here – you can’t come through the bar,” she is heard saying.
