The newest bar to open up in Adelaide is Hains & Co, which is located on Gilbert Place, right in the heart of the Adelaide CBD. It’s headed by the award winning Marcus Motteram, who has already established several successful bars in Melbourne. Like most small bars in Adelaide, there’s some sort of theme. Hains…

2KW Bar and Restaurant
What a great idea to have a roof top bar on top of an iconic building such as 2 King William Street. Customers are escorted from the ground floor and have to take two lifts to reach the venue. Once upstairs, you’re treated to spectacular views across the city. With a restaurant, outdoor bar and…
La Rambla Tapas Bar
Peel Street has come a long way from being a dark alleyway to a vibrant trendy hotspot right in the heart of the city. With the spate of new bars and restaurants down the street, the revitalisation has been a successful one. The latest establishment to join the ranks is La Rambla, a place that…
Lucky Cat Bar & Dim Sum
There aren’t many places in Adelaide where you can have Yum Cha in the evening and an Asian inspired Martini to go with it. Lucky Cat Bar & Dim Sum, formerly known as Suzie Wong’s Room, fills that void. The re-branding of the venue has seen a shift from Eastern European cuisine to the owner’s…
Glasshouse Hotel
The Marquis used to be one of my favourite French restaurants, but most recently, the venue had been renovated and rebranded to become The Glasshouse Hotel. It’s not a hotel by the way, so don’t think you can sleep there overnight. In line with the name change, the menu has also been revamped with a…
Moseley Bar & Kitchen
At the former site of The Dublin is the The Moseley Bar & Kitchen, one of the newest additions to the popular Glenelg cafe precinct. Set over two magnificent levels, there is a kitchen on each floor as well as a different menu. While the food offerings are not extensive, there is a focus on…
La Moka
With small bar licences being handed out like pamphlets at a voting booth, the once dark and dingey Peel Street alleyway has been transformed into a vibrant and trendy social destination, giving life to the laneway culture that we so often see in Melbourne. A handful of new bars have opened since I last walked…
Bank Street Social
Tonight, I had the pleasure of joining Liz and Troy from The Cocktail Challenge to check out Bank Street Social, one of Adelaide’s trendiest small bars. I must admit I was very impressed from the moment I walked into the bar area. It’s a whopping 240 square metres of underground space which has a capacity…
Mother Vine – Four Pillars Gin
It was only by chance, and a last minute decision, that I was brought along to the Adelaide launch of the Four Pillars Gin at the Mother Vine Wine Bar. I must admit, I’ve never been a real fan of gin, however, I was open to further enlightenment. Four Pillars are a small Australian craft…
Loft Oyster and Wine Bar – Dinner Menu
As one of the most stylish and sophisticated bars in Adelaide, Loft Oyster and Wine Bar has always been known for it’s extensive wine list and delicious selection of cocktails. While oysters and other small plates were a source of sustenance, the bar has decided to develop their food offerings further with the introduction of…
