I’ve ventured out to Port Adelaide on several occasions and each time it was for the dolphin cruise. While waiting for the cruise to start, we decided to check out the local pub, the Lighthouse Hotel. The atmosphere here is relaxed and it’s nice to be able to see all the activity that is happening…

Governor Hindmarsh Hotel
The Gov is an absolutely awesome venue, particularly for live music. I’ve come here on so many occasions, mainly to catch up with friends for drinks. On one occasion, over 60 friends came along and we had half the pub to ourselves. The pub is conveniently located outside the last tram stop so catching the…
Bridge Hotel – Langhorne Creek
For 2 years in a row, I’ve attended the same wine tour and had lunch at the Bridge Hotel. The hotel is your classic, out in the middle of nowhere, country pub. Between yesterday and the year before, nothing much has really changed. It’s like the whole place is in a time capsule. Fortunately, the…
Coopers Alehouse – Adelaide
I’ve been coming to Coopers Alehouse for many years, right back to when it was called the Earl of Aberdeen. I had heard many reports about their huge schnitzels and I was keen to check it out. As usual, I ordered the Chicken Parmi. The meal came out 20 minutes after ordering and was nicely…
London Tavern
The London Tavern used to be one of those pubs we’d visit on our pub crawls back in the days of university. Since then, it’s been refurbished and it’s still a spacious open plan area. The fact that it is located in the basement area of the Myer Centre with no exposure to natural light…
Cumberland Arms Hotel
I used to go to the Cumby back when I was at uni, and these days I still find myself going back there. This is one of the few places that doesn’t charge entry after 9pm to get in. This recently renovated pub has a lot going for it. Consisting of a maze of rooms,…
Caledonian Hotel
I usually venture out to the Cally for social latin dancing on a Wednesday night. In between Salsa classes and the social night, I often grab something to eat. On this particular occasion I decided to go for their Chicken Parmi. The chicken was perfectly cooked and the right thickness, but a bit small in…
Walkers Arms Hotel
As far as buffets go, Walkers Arms does a really good buffet. For under $30, from Monday to Thursday, you can indulge in a range of roasts, salads, Asian dishes and desserts. The place itself is nicely presented. The venue is spacious and has a decent beer garden. The staff are friendly, the service is…
Dog and Duck
I’m going to review this place based on the food. I’ve eaten here three times and I’ve been impressed on each and every occasion. The chef certainly knows what they’re doing in the kitchen. The cleanliness at this place is certainly questionable. Each time I’ve eaten at this place, the dining table has always been…
Astor Hotel
$10 meals from Monday to Friday? Yibbida! Yibbida! That’s all folks! The Astor is one of my many local pubs. Located on the corner of Gilles and Pulteney, this venue is a favourite for functions or after work drinks. I for one, come here for the cheap meals. Who needs to go grocery shopping, go…
