Royal Oak Hotel
The Royal Oak is a pub located on busy O’Connell Street in North Adelaide. While the exterior has a quaint facade, the interior is like a 1950’s unrenovated urban warehouse. We sat at a table that was made from recycled cinema seats, although the furnishings around us seemed to be a mish mash of throw…

Located at the northern end of O’Connell Street, Beyond India offers all your traditional North Indian fare, and perhaps a bit more, as the name of the restaurant suggests. The place is beautifully decorated with…
Amarin Thai
Yet another Thai restaurant in North Adelaide. Located just off O’Connell Street, this cosy little restaurant is great for romantic evenings.

Yet another Thai restaurant in North Adelaide! Located close to the beginning of O’Connell Street, this Thai restaurant offers all your traditional favourites.
