    Staying at Holiday Inn Express, walking into Rundle St literally around the corner and Called in for Happy Hour Drinks decided to come back for Lunchtime Special. Nice venue friendly staff. Lunch was most enjoyable our friends had the Salt & Pepper Squid and we had the Rump Steak. Will be back and can recommend.

    Went here for a drink round 6pm. They have some bizarre rule that you can’t take backpacks up, which they were awkwardly insistent on. It is a beautiful setting and quite intimate. The cocktails are fantastic priced roughly between $18-$25. Service was a bit slow though, but I’d go again. Photo includes the ‘backpack’ we were supposed not to take up!

    The Lion is one of Adelaide’s iconic hotels.

    It has a great tradition of providing good hospitality, and the current owners have continued that focus, with an offering which includes good food, fines wines, a relaxed ambience as well as live music and special events.

    All of that makes for an appealing venue, where the management is keen to deliver a good experience for patrons.

    For dining, they offer casual and more formal service, with appropriate menus for each.

    In the main dining room, the food is excellent, and good value.

    You can choose wine from their extensive list, or select a special wine from their Wine Room, which has a vast range of fine wines.

    This is a great local pub, and a good place to relax and get together with friends.

    Nice little bar with seating and a good vibe just off Hindley St!

    Does get a little busy and $30 entry fee at certain times.

    I haven't been here since I left Uni - and let me say, its exactly the same as when I last left. Fun cocktails that go down far to easy - often with a fun fruity twist. Interesting blue lit room, with a small aquarium. Smell when you first walk in is interesting.

    If you like Art Deco style, check out the lounge bar in the Playford Hotel on North Terrace. When you enter the building from North Terrace, turn right for the lounge bar. (The restaurant is through the doors to the left.) We enjoyed the coffee here, and the sumptuous but charming interior. The service was prompt and friendly, and the atmosphere relaxed.

    This is a nice quite classy bar for a drink or two before perhaps a meal or the theatre. Comfortable surrounds and friendly staff. Prices are not unreasonable although tending to the higher side but then again you have nice surroundings and no poker machine noise which in itself is worth paying more for. A good place for a before dinner or after dinner drink

    I had my birthday party at Distill in the Private function room. The staff made it really easy to organise. Food and Bar packages were excellent. It was such a fun night and everyone had an amazing time. I highly recommend Distill.

    Popped in after dinner elsewhere to hear a musician we knew about. It is a bit hard to find unless you know what you're looking for. Look for Beware of the Dog marked on the footpath and if the light is on, they're open. A lovely, dark, moody little gem of a place. No menus or drinks lists and an overwhelming selection of bottles behind the bar but I asked for a recommendation and based on what I said I liked the barman poured me a drink which was perfect. We listened to the blues for a bit and moved on to the next place.

    Go for the wings and if you like it "hot", get into the Suicide Wings. be warned, unless you can handle the hot stuff, get one or two other options to temp the taste buds

    Great fun - and we were there over Halloween! Lovely people. Fun drinks menu with lots of innovation. Plenty of dry ice to add to the delivery of the drinks

    The Gaslight Tavern is a small pub not far out of the city. About a $10 -15 taxi trip. Its a great live music venue with a blues open mic night on a Tuesday. There's nothing amateur about the musicians who get up to play and various combinations of the assorted musos put on a fantastic night of entertainment.
    It's friendly, get there early and have a good pub style meal then sit back with a beer and enjoy.
