places to
have a drink
in and around Adelaide
We love having late afternoon drinks at the COLONIST on
the The Parade at Norwood. It’s not just a quirky cute little pub
but you can buy a bottle of French Champagne for well–under $100. Their dining room is very noisy (if that bothers you) but their grub is tasty and good value for money.
Another completely mad pub that is always packed with locals and McLaren Vale winemakers VICTORY
HOTEL at Sellick’s Beach where they always run a French
Champagne for under $15 a glass and have an excellent and well–priced
wine list. Grub is basic pub food but okay for the money!
More on the up market side two really great places for drinks CHESSER
CELLARS and the THE APOTHECARY
1878. Both venues have fabulous wine lists and cool clubby
environments. The bar at Augé Ristorante is
very swish and a good place to supper and a few drinks on
your way to or from the theatre. They have an excellent wine list.
We also like Sangria on Gouger Street almost on the Morphett Street corner.
sad but true Martinis
We are yet to find a really fabulous martini in Adelaide and seriously wonder why the gin and vodka isn’t kept in the freezer because we think that the best martini never touches anything made from water, especially Adelaide tap water ice. Any bar tender wanting to prove us wrong email us
