As part of the Clare Valley wine tour, a group of us stopped off at the Sevenhill Hotel for lunch. After all, you can’t drink all day on an empty stomach. The venue itself is very typical of a building in a country town; the galvanised veranda and the tin roof are the standard features. The inside…

Rob Roy Hotel
There’s so much history behind the Rob Roy Hotel in Adelaide. Having undergone so many renovations over the years, the place still retains it’s character. The architecture of the time is one to marvel at; the arched framing in the main doorway, the cast iron balustrades, the draped corrugated iron roof and the dentilation on the…
Treasury on King William
The Treasury has a reputation for being a fine dining establishment that is almost as old as the state. The architecture, both internally and externally, is something you don’t see anymore. The solid stone work, the magnificent high ceilings, the wide stair cases and the intricate cornices are some of the features that caught my eye….
Grace The Establishment
I have a lot of friends that have raved about Grace the Establishment and apparently its the place to be seen. At the front is bar area, which is nicely decorated with low hanging semi spherical light fittings and classically styled high dark wood tables. This leads to the restaurant dining area, which then leads…
Harry’s Bar
I’ve walked past Harry’s Bar on many occasions and have always been meaning to visit. When I saw they had $5 burgers and steak sandwiches between 12 to 2:30pm on Tuesdays, I saw this as a perfect opportunity. Located close to the corner of King William and Grenfell, the decor in this bar is swanky…
Benjamin On Franklin
I’ve been to this place for drinks on many occasions but never for food. I came here for lunch today just to complete the experience. The Benjamin on Franklin is beautifully designed pub. The intricately hand crafted timber dining furniture, the elegant vintage chairs, the warm cosy fire place, the innovative light fixtures, the exposed…
Franklin Hotel
I’ve been to the Franklin a few times for drinks and on each of those occasions I’ve had an enjoyable time. Located in a double storey heritage listed building, the decor is a blend of classic 50’s retro chique and recycled suburban hand me downs. The electrical wiring has been concealed in what appears to…
The Bath Hotel
The Bath has been around since 1856 and is located at the eastern end of the Parade. The pub specialises in Modern Australian and Seafood, however you can still get your traditional pub fare. The decor here is modern and stylish, and the venue is quite spacious. The highlight of the place is the beer…
Rosemont Hotel
The Rosemont is somewhere I would never normally go. The place is so dark and dingy, I couldn’t tell what time of the day it was. The majority of the light came from the 39 flat screen televisions they have scattered across the room. I felt like I was one of those 24 hour security…
