"When this sleek eatery —all polished concrete floors, minimalist lighting, and textured grey walls — opened at the end of 2017 in newly cool Henley Beach, it quickly became a local favourite. Set one street back from the sand, the centrepiece at Acacia is a 5.4-metre white mosaic-tiled coffee bar. During the week, a steady stream of beachgoers swing past for their morning takeaway; on weekends, it buzzes with the brunch crowd devouring classic poached eggs alongside more unexpected dishes such as miso eggplant served topped with puffed rice and grilled kale, and a sensational confit duck leg served with a fried egg and spiced honey on house-made crumpets."

"Acacia is a casual yet sophisticated space, dishing comfort for everyone from the local beach bums to the visiting city dwellers. The space transforms from breakfast with OJ to dinner with Pinot seamlessly. Using a combination of subtle textures and materials to create a refined, welcoming...See More"

"Open for lunch 6 days a week and dinner 7 days a week, Charlies Diner offers an extensive buffet that can’t be missed. Choose from Asian dishes, international options, a salad bar, and a vast selection of desserts. Buffet prices vary throughout the week and depending on whether you’re dining for lunch or dinner."

"Arguably Adelaide’s leading craft beer dedicated bar, NOLA has become a go-to destination for craft beer enthusiasts. With its New Orleans theme, NOLA Craft Beer & Whiskey is also one of Adelaide’s best jazz bars and serves up great food with a focus on Creole and Cajun soul cuisine. With 16 tap beers on rotation, visitors can expect an extensive range of both independent and craft brewed products from South Australia, interstate and overseas."

"Whilst Rundle Mall is pretty much your run of the mill capital city shopping precinct, it does boast a few little marvels which make it worth visiting on your stay in Adelaide with kids. At the top of our list is the Beehive Corner where Australia’s very first Haigh’s Chocolate store was opened back in 1915 – it still stands there today!. Head in to taste some chocolate and buy some Australia handmade chocolate bliss!"

"Located in the city centre, the Rundle Mall is the prime shopping area of Adelaide. Opened in 1976 it was Australia’s first pedestrian only street mall. The streets a shoppers paradise."

"You simply can’t go past Henley Square for beautiful beach sunset photos. Head to the delightful twinkling fairy lights to up your Instagram game even further!. Henley Square is not only thriving with life it’s the perfect backdrop for any insta post."

"Recently-revamped Henley Square is the ultimate seaside destination, no matter the season. The metropolitan beach is packed with pubs and restaurants, draped with thousands of fairy lights, and is only a few seconds from the sand."

"A short 15-minute drive from Adelaide, Windy Point Restaurant combines contemporary dining with breathtaking views. The full-length windows spanning the front of the restaurant are visible from every table, providing each guest with a stunning view of the city, the sea and Adelaide Hills. Priding itself on its formal atmosphere, Windy Point sets a smart casual dress code to ensure that whether gastronomes are enjoying the tasting menu, the wine list or the group trilogy menu, they are having a first-class experience."

"Mount Lofty is the highest point in the Adelaide Hills, where you can enjoy mountaintop views from the old fashioned luxury of Mount Lofty House. This boutique hotel is an Adelaide classic, dating back to the 1850s when the estate was built as a summer retreat for Arthur Hardy, one of the city’s best known historical figures. Stay in the original coachman’s cottage, or book a room in the tower for splendid views over the hills, before enjoying fine dining at Hardy’s Verandah Restaurant, or a few cocktails at Arthur’s Waterhouse Lounge."

"Mount Lofty House has the best of both worlds, with views of the Piccadilly Valley in the Adelaide Hills wine region. Yet, it’s also just 15 minutes from the central business district. This boutique hotel ticks all the boxes for a relaxing stay, with an onsite spa, pool with views over the valley and a cosy library."

"If you love the Picadilly Valley, or even just amazing views, you have to check out this gorgeous venue in Crafers, South Australia. They have their Tiered Lawns and Piccadilly Lawns, with the former overlooking the rose garden and Tuscan fountain. This venue also offers cocktails and cocktail style receptions."
