Café Culture

Let’s start with cafes. It’s al fresco dining all the way. Turn down any street in the city’s heart, and you’ll find a great place to drop in for coffee and a casual bite, maybe a long lunch or an even longer dinner. If you hit Gouger Street, you’re in the centre of food heaven. Your taste senses will immediately struggle because of the extraordinary choice of cuisines. There’s a real Asian mix here: Chinese, Vietnamese, Malaysian, and Thai. Throw in Korean and Indian, a bit of French and Argentinean, and you won’t know where to start. On top of that, you’ll also be faced with another food dilemma. You see, you’re right next to the Central Market, where fine foods flourish, and Chinatown, which has many exotic and fascinating restaurants.

 

Pub Crawl

Ok. Start counting. There are more than one hundred pubs in Adelaide and nearby suburbs. Take your pick from a corner pub with plenty of character to something more upmarket. The pub scene in Adelaide is really on the go. Whether it’s a place to catch up with friends and have some traditional pub fare, sink a few of the local’s finest, or tap your feet to great music, you’ll find a pub to suit. If you feel like wandering further into the field to experience even more atmosphere, you can head to Adelaide Hills. In just 20 minutes, you’ll discover precisely what you’re after. We call them cozy Hills hotels. Now, if you fancy a beer with a splash of salt, then there are plenty of pubs along the coastline; most are only 30 minutes from the city.

 

Night Life

It’s evening now, and you’re wondering what bar to tackle. Feel like a sand and sandal epic? Then go Roman. The Bacchus Bar at Henley Beach, named after the God of food and wine, has the perfect setting. Take a seat on the waterfront and order away. Choose from fine wine, boutique beers, and inspired cocktails. Maybe you want something that’s a bit hip and out there. Flit on down to the Dragonfly Bar on Victoria Square. It’s a boutique room with retro furniture, mood lighting, and disco balls. European and Asian food is served with classic cocktails, boutique beers, and quality wine. For more space and style, have a bite of The Apple Bar. The expansive area features an inbuilt stage plus a mezzanine level with balcony views onto the ground floor. The food is excellent, and so is the music.

After all that, you’re revelling in the luxury surroundings of ‘The Playford.’’ All you need is a good night’s sleep before doing it again tomorrow.
