Nola

Top choice in Adelaide


This hidden back-lane space was once the stables for the adjacent Stag Hotel. Out with the horse poo, in with 16 craft beers on tap, American and Australian whiskies (no Scotch!), Cajun cooking (gumbo, oysters, jambalaya, fried chicken) and regular live jazz. A saucy bit of Deep South in the East End.
