Been a few times and each visit we’ve enjoyed great local service from staff, yummy drinks and nice nibbles. This time we were seated in the footpath parklet dining area which was fab! Will be back again.

A nice small inclusive atmosphere. Noise levels way too high due to hard floors and low ceilings. Service was polite and earnest. Not great at checking in or clearing, given it was not too busy.

Excellent value for money. Not the best food but based on price and being a local hangout we loved Lulu's Social. Staff were friendly and the food fresh so we couldn't ask for much more with the price. It'd be amazing for a private event.

Great little spot for locals to hang out. Clean and modern, yet casual enough for families. Great value for money with $15 margaritas and I loved the Chilli & Coconut Margarita. YUM! Food was simple bar style food and again good selection of menu items and priced reasonable. Will be back!

Customer service was good but I booked two weeks n In advance and we had to sit outside. Wasn’t too bad but very cold. Came out a few times for food and first round of drinks and waited a while to come out again for another drink.
