Bar Patron Weekend Lunch

Overview

A long lunch is the sweet spot of social events. It suits both your early-rising mates and late-night party animals. It can be the main event or the start of a whole day of festivities. And, if you pick the right venue, the drinks are of equal importance to the food. Enter Bar Patron's new weekend lunch menu, which takes that 'sweet spot' long lunch and serves it with a healthy dash of salt and squeeze of lime.

According to the website, this lunch set menu is for 'the ladies', but let's be real — anyone who loves Mexican food (all of you, we know) is going to want to get in on the action.

The share-style menu starts with hand-pounded guacamole and salsas for true authenticity points, followed by a selection of tacos. The main meal is your choice, so consider it a good opportunity to fill your hankering for refried beans, enfrijoladas and braised meats. To finish, you'll get to tuck into the bar's two most popular desserts — the tres leches sponge cake, served with fresh mango, and polvorones, which is an authentic Mexican cookie-like dessert served with almond and caramel.

The set menu costs $65 and includes one of the venue's expert Patrón Silver margaritas on arrival. Alternatively, you can upgrade to the $99 package, which also includes two hours of bubbles.

The Weekend Lunch menu is available every Saturday and Sunday between 12–3pm. To make a booking, visit the website.
