Its not the home of the…read morePartridge Family and there is no multi coloured bus parked anywhere within the vicinity - although it would be fun if there was. Rather Partridge House is a beautiful old community home, originally built in 1899 for a Mrs Elinor Varley. The house is today set amidst stunning gardens and grounds and is used these days predominantly as a venue for weddings. Partridge house can also be hired for all sorts of events and is home to various community groups and organisations. If you're looking at hiring the venue, it will seat 80 people for a sit down function or can take 130 for a cocktail party. Take special note of the fountain in front of the house as a location for you photos. It was donated to the owner by former Adelaide Mayor and state pollie, William Townsend back in 1877. Fast forward a hundred years or so to the early 1970's, in fact around the same time TV's The Partridge Family was making it big, and there was talk of demolishing Partridge House and using the land to establish housing. Thank heavens, the then Glenelg Council decided to buy and restore the historic site instead. The beautiful gardens and grounds are open to the public every day, but the house is closed.

I have been coming to this cafe for coffee and catering for the past 12yrs (because it used to be…read moreexceptional) but the last 18mths of service experiences have been really disappointing. The staff's attitude to customers has become unfriendly and unhelpful and the service slow. The hot drink consistenacy has lapsed and the overall experience is now expensive and underwhelming. I used to feel like a welcomed regular and now I often feel uncomfortable and often disappointed with my purchases - many suppliers and food options have changed. Today I threw my chai in the bin - as I was given th incorrect one to my order (which happens, easily fixed) but was made to feel like the error was my fault and the staff were too arrogant to offer a replacement.

In fact, they generally are cheaper than most other bottle shops. Depending on the product. But if you are a craft beer lovers (like myself) you will notice the difference in price. If you love wine, you will be excited to know that unlike large bottle shop chains, you will find boutique South Australian wines here. Some wineries are very particular on where they sell their produce. This is one of those very lucky destinations. But this isn't just a bottle shop/cellar, it's also a lovely café and patisserie (as the name suggests). You will find a lovely range of pastries, cakes, sweets, sandwiches, pizzas, and salads. All of them are gourmet and special. Last time I had lunch here I picked up a great special, a slice of pizza and coffee for $10. The pizza was great. It was pre-made and heated. But, it was still quality with smoked salmon, capers, and veggies. Great quality base as well! As for the coffee, I am not entirely convinced they have their in-house blend right. But, I am always willing to try it again. My barista overheated the milk as well. Oh well... Last thing to mention is the range of crockery & home wares available instore on the back wall. Very nice selection of designer pieces. So worth looking at if you are after a gift or wanting something spesh for home!

While you're there, check out the contraption that allows selected beers to be infused with a range of other interesting ingredients.

The Coffee section isn't quite ready yet but the rest is in full swing with the rear section due for some more work including a new copper pot still arriving in January. The design business Toolbox is under the same roof, tucked in behind their coffee bar. There is obvious street appeal from its corner location with dark walls, a full glass front with a vertical lift front glass door, minimalist but not cold and kind of starting to get a look of its own. The bath tub above the bar is a great touch. Our visit was part of a North Adelaide Primary School fundraiser, where Adam, co-owner with Wes in this bar enterprise, is a parent. Our group took part in gin flights, with some mixing and experimenting of our own, along with some knowledgable commentary from Adam. Some ordered dinner with options of sliders (x3) and fancy toasties while others enjoyed an antipasto assortment. I will admit I failed to properly peruse their menu options on this occasion and whilst this is a gin focussed bar they have enough to please whomever walks in. The staff were lovely and approachable and I mention this because this can sometimes be a deal breaker for customers. They source their (wine) spirit base from the Barossa and even the tonic water and vermouth they use as mixers are Australian. Our gin offering on the night was their staple small batch 42% craft gin, the shiraz barrel 60% craft gin, and their monster 69% bathtub cut gin which should carry a warning label (great with a splash of tonic). We also got lucky and tasted a 'Christmas release' gin special with a cake like nose and obvious holiday flavours, a perfect gift or something to sip on the actual day (see photos re tasting notes). I didn't eat or drink anything on the night I didn't enjoy and I think PLC will continue to grow and attract new customers and become a regular on the Adelaide scene. I'm hoping their coffee is phenomenal. If you like a gin you need to go and if you don't just come for a look - maybe all the medals and accolades displayed around the bar will be enough for you to get curious :)

Well, this ended up being a really pleasant surprise, especially since it came across as basically being like a European style bar. It even had beer, and some really, really nice beers at that.
