My friends and family had lunch here today and loved the feed me menu. They offer the express version but we opted for the full feed me. It was so tasty and great value for money. The broccoli was unforgettable and I’m sure we’ll talk about this dish for years to come. The semifreddo was a nice surprise and felt like Christmas. The whole menu was delicious but what topped it for me was the wonderful service. I didn’t catch her name, but we had a friendly French (I think?) waitress who was so attentive and cared about how we experienced the pace of our meal as not to feel rushed. I noticed her subtly checking on our table regularly and how we were tracking which I appreciated. The atmosphere was bustling but not too hectic. My only slight negative (but not really) is that my friend’s earl grey mocktail was half full of foam. Thank you for a great lunch. I’ve already recommended to friends.

First at at this restaurant. Staff were so friendly and helpful. They were also really understanding. The food was delicious! The corn ribs were very tasty. As soon as you walk in you instantly feel the costal vibes. The food matched the costal theme. And the music wasn’t too loud. I am definitely going back again.

I’d always wanted to try this place because of its high rating and it didn’t disappoint. The vibe is fantastic, and I especially love the chairs in the open area. I went for lunch when it was busy; they initially offered me a bar stool or a table tucked away at the back, but I mentioned I preferred the front yard and was happy to wait. Andy was very accommodating and prepared a table for us as soon as one became available. Kudos to Andy! Though I have to say, on my second visit, the rest of the staff weren’t as friendly. Now, the food absolutely incredible. We ordered the set menu, which is amazing value. The harissa chicken was tender, juicy, and bursting with flavour, while the pumpkin dish was simply divine. Hats off to the chef! I’ll definitely keep coming back for my Friday lunches and can’t wait to try everything on the menu. Highly recommend this hidden gem!

I went to Part Time Lover with my mum, and while it’s busy and quite loud, the food and cocktails make it worth it. We tried the popcorn broccoli, salt & pepper bug roll, anchovy toast, miso scallops, and Vietnamese grilled squid. Everything was delicious. My favourites were the anchovy toast and popcorn broccoli, and I loved the Porch Swing cocktail, while my mum’s favourites were the salt & pepper bug roll and miso scallop. It’s a great spot if you don’t mind a lively atmosphere.

Wow! What an incredible experience. It was our first time here after wanting to treat ourselves to a nice lunch. My friends mum had passed away and we had her funeral the day before, so we very much needed some yummy food, good drinks, and quality time. PTL not only met our expectations (based on raving reviews and a yummy looking menu) but exceeded them. Our waitress was divine and upbeat, treating us more like a friend than customers. All our silly requests were catered to (no raw fish and heater off). We genuinely had the most incredible time. All of the staff were lovely actually! We left raving about how full our bellies were, and how we couldn’t fault a thing. We were even given a greeting card from the staff to say thank you for dining there. Sometimes it’s just the little things. Thank you PTL for not only giving us an incredible lunch, but providing us with a joyful core memory at a delicate time. We will be back!
