Adelaide has a lot of under utilised buildings located on small side streets. One by one, these sites are being renovated into trendy hipster cafes and bars. Hello, Yes is the one of the newer cafes to open their doors, and is located on Eliza Street. It’s in between Franklin Street and Waymouth Street and…

Faraja
Kuwasiliana na wewe pia inanipa faraja kwani kiswahili chako kinaendeleza vizuri. Is that all Swahili to you? Well it is! Faraja is Swahili for comfort, solace or consolation. Faraja is located close to the beginning of King William Road as you head just out of the city. Set in a heritage styled stone fronted cottage, you’re greeted…
Bar 9
Having only been to their city store, I was to keen to visit the place that started it all. This place just screams hipster from the moment you walk in. The small sun room at the front, the wall mounted shelves, and the prominent use of timber makes this place cute and yet quirky. We…
Cocolat – Henley Beach
A new Cocolat has opened at Henley Beach and is conveniently located metres away from the beach. Situated in a long and narrow store, the venue itself is deceptively large. With such a small frontage, I did feel the place lacked natural light towards the rear of the building. Today, I had their Baileys Embrace….
Mamachau
Are you sick of the typical Asian take away places where the food is greasy and loaded with MSG? There’s a new cosy little store that has opened up close to the corner of King William and Pirie Street called Mamachau. Run by two lovely sisters, whose backgrounds are in hospitality, this place offers a…
House Of Donkey
The House of Donkey is located on the less popular western side of the city, in a double storey cream coloured townhouse. While everything looks normal from the outside, the inside is a hippy like time warp back to the 60’s. The decor is a mismatch of furniture, flowers, bookshelves, palettes, pot plants and knick…
By Blackbird
By Blackbird is a small little cafe and patisserie located in the popular King William Road cafe precinct. Coffee and pastries seem to be their specialty, but they also do all day breakfasts in the form of croissants with a variety of fillings. The place is warm and cosy with a dash of character about…
Argo On The Parade
Argo On The Parade seems to be where it’s happening. With lines 20 people long, you know they’re definitely doing something right. The decor is sleek and stylish with a touch of funkiness about it. The front counter has a deli style feel about it and the stone benches give it a bit more class….
The Deli Cafe and Gallery
The Deli normally does a roaring trade, particularly when the pub across the road doesn’t serve food. From the outside, it looks like your typical suburban corner store, but inside, the decor is funky and eclectic. The mismatched furnishings and wall paintings give this place a casual and homey feel. Today, I ordered the Beef…
Duthy Street Deli
Duthy Street Deli is your typical suburban corner store turned eatery. While it doesn’t look like much from the outside, the inside is slightly better. With chalk board wall menus, leather seating and a feature wall to one side, this place has a grungy feel about it. There’s a good amount of natural light only…
