Food is awesome, pizzas are great if there's a heap of you, the beer prices and choices are excellent, the atmosphere is awesome too.

Just on the right corner as you enter North Adelaide coming up the hill from the city, the outdoor area looks amazing.

Wellington, Queens Head and British are usually my favs.

North Adelaide is great for pub crawls, almost one on every corner.

Then there was the Daniel O’Connell in Tynte St which closed a few years ago & the Dover Castle in Archer St, it closed around 25 years ago, it’s still there as a residential. It was a great pub, I went out with a barmaid from there in the 90’s, but that’s another story…

The little rickshaw @ Aldinga

Asian fusion style, with the summer menu a mix of Japanese, Thai and Vietnamese.

We did the banquet as it was our 10 year anniversary.

Hands down the best dining experience I’ve had in a long time.

Do yourself a favour and book in, well in advance as it’s the hottest seat in town

Lonestar at Christies
Garlic bread
Pork belly bites as entree - these are delicious

Rump
Scotch fillet
Both cooked nicely as requested- medium rare. Thought rump was a little chewy from my taste test.

Now, I've had a chip and a piece of my scotch fillet, clearly my plate is still full. When an enthusiastic "crew" member asks how the meals are.... I politely responded with, the bite I've had, it seems OK and he buggered off.

Anyone know if a great place for lunch in McLaren Vale that isn’t a winery?


My suggestion of the Fruchos shop didn’t go down well.
