Kings Head Hotel

Had lunch here with family on a Monday so was pretty quiet, but it had a nice ambiance which would probably not be much different at crowded times. The tap beer range was pretty good with about a dozen local crafts and the bottle selection was outstanding, particularly given they are all South Australian beers. I didn’t know there were so many. The food was excellent and all enjoyed their meals. The Pie Floater was particularly good!

Great convenient place for some brews and food. Went here by free tram and sat outside to eat and sip good beer. Bartender’s beer recommendations were spot on. I like that all their food is locally sourced. Excellent service. Good local selection. Not much for imports. My 1/2 kg chargrilled rib eye steak was cooked to perfection except while I like winter squash mashed with blue cheese, I don’t like it served on beef. So my first bites of the steak were some of the best I’ve ever had, those under the squash/blue cheese weren’t so good and I couldn’t finish it. Business started slowing down so they closed early although a number of people kept coming in they were turned away. I’d return if they were open.

Very much above average service, good solid range, a cool Bar.

A stylish bar located in the city centre with the best focus of SA micros I found in Adelaide. There’s great local support here, and while the tap list is let down by a few dumbed down lagers, the bottle range is excellent stocking a decent range of Lobethal, Brewboys, Steam Exchange, Gulf, Beard & Brau & Coopers. The place itself is very loungy decked out in leather sofas, marble fireplace, dimmed lighting at all that kind of jazz. There’s a dining room here too serving some fine fare, but they also do standard bar food which is pretty good. The staff are relatively knowledgeable in the beers they serve and a pleasant place to indulge in some nicely crafted SA brews.
