Hotel Wright Street

Living in the city, Hotel Wright Street is one of my numerous locals. They have a great selection of beers and ciders, they have various dining areas and a beer garden, but more importantly, they do great food. For lunch today, I ordered their Steak Sandwich. While it might look a little basic between two…

Mansions

I’m pretty sure I’ve been to the Mansions several times when I was at uni. Each time was during a pub crawl, where I was so drunk I could vaguely recall being here. Those bitter sweet non-memories! Feeling a bit nostalgic, I decided to check out the food here. The venue does a two parmi’s…

The Highway

The Highway is many things to many people. Some people go there for drinks and some for dancing. For me, I go there for the food. From the outside, it is evident that there is plenty of parking, but the building itself is deceptively large. Facing Marion Road, you have the sports bar. As you…

The Kings Hotel

The King’s Hotel is one of my locals and is conveniently located on the corner of Sturt Street and King William Street, just outside the City South tram stop. The pub offers all your traditional pub fare, and their food menu utilises a lot of locally sourced ingredients. The decor has a traditional English style…

The Stag Hotel

I’ve been coming to the Stag for years, but I’ve never actually eaten there until tonight. Beautifully located on the corner of Rundle Street and East Terrace, the Stag has a large balcony that overlooks Rymill Park. Business is pretty good, particularly due to it’s close proximity to the Fringe setup across the road. Tonight,…

Mawson Lakes Hotel

The Mawson Lakes Hotel is well known for their mega chicken schnitzels. In what is a modern building, the hotel is simply decorated and seats about 200 people. The atmosphere is relaxed and the service is average. One thing I liked about this place is the all you can eat salad bar. The potato bake at…

The Griffins

I’ve been coming to Griffins ever since my university days. With it’s close proximity to Adelaide University, it was always a stop off point at all my pub crawls. Nowadays, the place has undergone renovations and is now more sleek and stylish, which is in line with other trendy pubs around town. I like a…

Maid Of Auckland

I’ve driven past the Maid of Auckland many times when going up South Road, and to be honest, I’ve never wanted to walk inside, mainly due to its appearance from the outside. It doesn’t appear to be one of those modern pubs that have undergone extensive renovations. According to other reviews, it has been renovated,…

Hotel Richmond

I’ve been to the Hotel Richmond on many occasions, mainly for drinks. While walking through the Mall, I noticed they had lunch specials on, so I felt this was the perfect opportunity to taste what they have to offer. The thing I love about the Richmond is the grandness of the place which is accentuated…

Whitmore Hotel

If you manage to get to the Whitmore Hotel without getting mugged, you can take advantage of the $10 Pint and Parmi special that is on every Wednesday until the end of February. The former strip club, now turned pub, is basically decorated and offers all your traditional pub fare. The clientele are a bit…
