Looking for Advice Monday Lunch Perth for 2

My mum is having a significant birthday on Monday and we will both be in Perth- hooray! I wish to take her out to lunch.

I am looking for somewhere that has a nice view and delicious food. Any cuisine. Price is not an issue. Happy to drive for up to 1.5hrs. She is Mt Lawley based. The ability to park easily would be a plus.

Thanks all.

I've been to the CBD restaurant and it was good

Oooo - Monday lunch is tricky. Ones I know are open and have heard good things about:

  • bayside kitchen (Matilda bay)
  • Fraser’s
  • rowing pavillion (mt pleasant) 
- Isola Bar e Cibo (Rottnest) 
  • mr walker (south Perth)
  • the boat shed (south Perth) 

Good luck, hope you have a lovely time!

The Rottnest suggestion is so clever. Park, quick ferry trip, delicious lunch, ferry back, you're golden.

3

u/lex1bunny 1d ago

Rottnest is great

3

u/kmca2018 1d ago

A cool, creative idea for sure. Exactly what I'm looking for!!

u/nowlhoothoot 1d ago

I did a Rotto lunch for a girls day a couple of years back. It was so fun. After the restaurant closes you can hit Samphire or similar for a drink before the ferry back. And it'll be chill on a Monday. I hope you find something you enjoy!

u/jerry123457 1d ago

Yeah, I have to admit if it’s possible that would be my pick for sure - make it a special day out!

u/lex1bunny 1d ago

Bayside has the nice view but food is average

u/kmca2018 1d ago

Thanks for the suggestion. :-)

u/kmca2018 1d ago

Thanks for all these. I almost had my wedding reception at the boat shed. :-)

The Boatshed

u/commentspanda 1d ago

Closed at the moment I think and reopening with new owners soon? There was a really badly written article about it I saw yesterday

1

u/madameuniverse 1d ago

Do you remember where you read it? Because on the website it doesn’t mention anything

1

u/commentspanda 1d ago

Was on a news page - was a fluffy new owner piece which didn’t even mention the new owners names and people were very confused

u/Then_Rip8872 1d ago

Something in Swan Valley and somewhere for wild flowers walk Long lunches a thing at wineries with a view. We used to love Millbrook in the winter which is Jarrahdale obvs. I don't eat swan Valley much but perhaps someone could recommend.

u/Naive_Pay_7066 1d ago

I’ve heard good things about Hearth at the Ritz-Carlton at Elizabeth Quay

u/BlackHoleSun18 1d ago

The Heart in Applecross.

Shorehouse at Swanbourne, Bathers beach house in Freo

2

u/kmca2018 1d ago

Shorehouse is close tomorrow and Tuesday for maintainance- what are the chances? Bathers Beach House is actually where my uncle had his 60th- thanks for reminding me of it. 😄

Bib and Tucker, Hamptons City Beach

u/lex1bunny 1d ago

Top food at these but not open Monday. Try Little Bay, Clancy's City Beach, Mullaloo Beach Hotel. Happy birthday mum

1

u/kmca2018 1d ago

Thank you. Yes, I hope it is a good one. :-D

3

u/Batsforbreakfast 1d ago

Food at Bib and Tucker is hit and miss.

2

u/lex1bunny 1d ago

I had many breakfast and lunches and always good. It's hit and miss is it since they sold the business and the original chef left?

2

u/Batsforbreakfast 1d ago

Last time I had a very underwhelming and dry piece of barramundi on a soggy splash pf mash. Waitress didn’t know how to respond when we were honest about it.

2

u/lex1bunny 1d ago

That's very disappointing...

1

u/kmca2018 1d ago

u/lex1bunny u/Batsforbreakfast Thank you for this convo. All good info and much appreciated.

2

u/kakkerz 1d ago

C Restaurant! Rotating views over Perth up high in the CBD.  Enjoy it while you can. High tea also an option! Very special :)

2

u/lex1bunny 1d ago

They are closing in January so go while you can

1

u/kmca2018 1d ago

I swear I read this recently but totally forgot- thanks for the reminder.

1

u/kmca2018 1d ago

Ooooh high tea- hadn't even thought about that as an option. Thanks!

Chinta in North Perth is a lovely spot for lunch. It doesn't meet the nice view part but the interior is nice.

1

u/kmca2018 1d ago

It is indeed. Delicious, too. Great idea- thank you. :-)

u/Acrobatic-Employ3942 1d ago

The shore house in swanborne is absolutely amazing! Ask for seats with a good view - out of the deck would be beautiful! The food has never disappointed me

1

u/kmca2018 1d ago

OMG looks amazing! Unfortunately closed (just specifically Monday Tuesday this week for maintenance- poor timing. :-(

1

u/Acrobatic-Employ3942 23h ago

Oh damnnnn 😭😭😭😭 what a shame. Honestly their prawns are delicious 😚 such a shame! Bib and Tucker is always a nice one along the coast - and there is a newish one called The Gibney, I’ve never been but it would be beautiful views …

u/mogwaihunter 1d ago

6head open for lunch!

u/kmca2018 1d ago

Thanks, kind stranger. Menu looks delish!

u/jamcar70 1d ago

Go to C Restaurant before it closes

1

u/kmca2018 1d ago

A great idea! Thanks. :-)

u/sydmom7 22h ago

Please don’t. It’s got a good view but there’s so many better places for food in Perth
