I often ride my bike down here from Glenelg and the ride is fabulous topped off by stopping for coffee at Joe's what could be better! Joe's is definitely an institution in Henley Beach, frequented by local celebrities and politicians having a quiet time out. Joe is a celebrity himself, everyone knows him and he certainly knows all the regulars. He loves to have a chat and put little Baci chocolates on the ladies coffees and gives out the odd chuppa chupp to the kid's of the regulars. Joe's daughter, Bianca, is delightful also and usually working in the cafe keeping Joe on track. The coffee is delicious and if you are into toasted sandwiches, his are the best I have ever tasted. The location is heaven, the beach here is pristine and, in summer there is a constant stream of people walking up the steps to order some refreshments. If you are looking for a place to have a coffee while the kids play safely on the beach this is as good as it gets. I love sitting at the outdoor tables soaking up the sun and atmosphere of the cafe and the beautiful surrounds. Word to the wise, in winter if the weather is bad Joe's is often closed as there is no indoor seating. Heaven on the beach.

The food is nice, the cold drinks and ice cream go down well on a hot day and it is a little away from the square and huslte and buslte. Except I went there the other Friday when it was 37 degrees in December and it was closed! Would have thought it to be open but apparently not, I am not sure why as there was no note. But other than that, when I have been here, the experience has been lovely and Joe is a really nice genuine guy.

This place might have the title of a not-so-fancy Saturday night strip joint on Port Rd but instead…read moreit is cosy little cafe on Semaphore Rd that is a breakfast favourite for locals and Adelaide "tourists" alike. The place is decorated in a minimalist style, simple tables and chairs, some booths, couches, benches and basically anything that will fit more people in to this always packed brekkie and lunch cafe. If the 5m long menu board isn't overwhelming enough for your taste buds make sure you DO NOT LOOK at the food cabinet on the way up to making your order as it will just confuse you more. The first time I went here I was distracted by so many things on the menu that I went for the safe eggs and coriander on rye option. A bit disappointed at the cost versus size of the meal my experience was slightly tainted. But as I sipped on my Ginger Zinger drink that was like star anise and gingery lemon jesus juice in a cup I looked closer at the menu and at what people were eating. It seemed that their big pancake and their roti wraps are the way to go. Upon my return to give this place a second shot I ordered a vegetarian twist on a bacon and egg wrap and, despite a bucket load of sauce and a fair amount of oil, I was impressed. As Laura said though, aside from the Ginger Zinger, the other highlight here is the bowls of coffee they serve. Yes it is a bowl and it is filled with smooth, creamy coffee goodness for you to dip your whole face into. Also don't go past their gluten free desserts here! Their lemon curd cake is delicious.

HOW DID I NOT NOW ABOUT THIS CAFE UNTIL RECENTLY?…read more Sorry for the all caps tirade: but I'm just that excited. I visit sleepy Semaphore quite a lot, as the old parent-shaped people live that way, and it was only relatively recently that I stumbled across this haven of Scandinavian delights. And I'm not just talking about the cute mustachioed barista. Complementing the birch tree wall art and Viking paraphernalia (I'm a huge sucker for Viking paraphernalia) is a tasty menu of baked goodies that are fresh, sweet and plentiful - as well as Swedish-inspired specialties like elderflower drinks and traditional waffles. Any country that has a TRADITION of waffles is all right by me. They seem to be undergoing renovations at the moment, but the place is still very cute, with kitschy Swedish accessories, some chandelier action, as well as the aforementioned radical Viking stuff. There always seems to be a queue here which is also a good sign - and, super importantly, the coffee is solid. ALSO: THEY SERVE COFFEE IN A BOWL. A bowl, people. Further evidence that this is my kind of place.

I was excited to see this bakery pop up on Magill Road in the last month. They have really decked out this shop in comparison to before with subway tiles and modern interior. It's not heaps flash, but looks a heck of a lot better amongst the other shops. They offer a whole range of different pastries, lots of donuts and danishes. They also have a sandwich bar and a lot of different pies & pasties. My rule with testing out a bakery is to try their sausage rolls and sourdough. If they get that right, they are good. The sausage roll was $4.40, which is pretty expensive. But, it is really big. The pasty is quite thick, but a little flaky. The meat inside is well seasoned, but I feel like they have mixed a little too much breadcrumbs through. So, it was a little doughy. It was a good sausage roll, and I will try another one. As for the sourdough, it is really fluffy and crusty! Really yummy! But, it is not that sour, which was a little disappointing. Most sourdoughs are a little more dense then this one. However, it's nice to try different versions and I will probably buy it again. It was $7 a loaf though, which is pretty costly for bread. So, I expect a lot when I pay that much. Overall, a good bakery for the neighbourhood. I will keep trying baked goods here and update my review as I go.

I think this is a really great thing for Aldgate. Kind of stepping up and showing the Community it is ok to change your image. I hope that a lot of the neighbouring businesses take note. For too long has the Adelaide Hills been old and outdated. Over the last 5 years we have seen some impressive changes. This is one of them. The décor inside is really well planned. All the colours work together, green being their spark of colour. And certain little touches of green are really clever. For example, I brought my dogs along to the café and I was handed two green bones on a plate for them to enjoy! How sweet is that? Do you know any other cafes that offer your pups a treat? Not many that is for sure! The menu is simple, but well thought out. I ordered the DIY Brekkie, which you have poached eggs and toast as the base and you can add other items. I decided on haloumi and avocado. Eggs were cooked prefect. But only one slice of bread? It was quite a costly meal of over $20, so I thought I would get two slices at least. Oh well... My partner tried the truffle scrambled eggs. Which I thought was much better value. So much flavour and cooked really well. Fluffy and not overdone! I am glad to see this café in Aldgate. I am sure the Community will love it. As for myself, I will try a few more items on the menu.

Our reserved table was waiting for us upstairs. We were all enjoying the warmth from both the heaters and the interior fitout as we walked through. Green and wood is used throughout the space. A very lovely fitout indeed. First shock would be the pricing of the food dishes. I don't mind paying for quality, however, I think it is a tad outrageous to charge customers $12 for two eggs on toast or $23 for smashed avocado which came with two eggs. Getting over the initial shock, we queued up to order. It was the longest wait for the amount of people in the line. Not sure why the staff taking the orders was so slow. It became apparent that a second staff was needed. Food came intermittently, which is understandable as we didn't order together. Having said that, one of the ladies who ordered first had to wait till everyone received their food before hers came. Hangry would aptly described her emotions. The food was delicious! I had the croque monsieur. Never heard of it before, I took a gamble and was pleasantly surprised. Other dishes included a little of a lot, smashed avocado, mushrooms on toast and the Frederick special. Really glad we stopped here for brunch. It is definitely popular. I still maintain that it is overpriced for what we received though. Worth checking out, but bring a big wallet!

Wow, what an odd little place! It is located amongst an industrial precinct in Lonsdale, and is an…read moreunexpected gem. We originally visited here as part of the Rendezvous markets, but that has unfortunately now closed. The upside is that Crossant D'Or Bakery has now decided to open every Saturday, which is great if you're looking for cheap pastries and coffee ;) My favourite is the almond croissant - full size for only $1!! That is not a typo - it's really $1. We also love the tray of 12 mini croissants (6 almond and 6 chocolate) for only $6, and a bonus is the good coffee (not sure if they stock soy milk - I had a very good long black). Croissant D'Or supplies cafes and the Central Markets, so is not really set up to be a stand-alone cafe - this is why the produce is so cheap, and why the seating is a bit daggy. It's a shame the Rendezvous Markets weren't sustainable, but I think this is because they concentrated more on the produce itself rather than the ambience ... and although this sounds shallow, ambience is a very important in making these sorts of markets popular. All in all, I think we will be frequenting Croissant D'Or quite regularly ... good for my wallet, but not necessarily for my waistline ;)

Who would've thunk it? A real life French patisserie in the middle of an industrial estate! Then…read moreagain, Croissant D'Or Bakery is more of a 'working bakery' than high-end patisserie cafe, with the majority of their product ending up at local eating establishments. And probably being sold on for some considerable mark-up. This is one of these hidden jewels of the south, where you can grab a delectably flaky almond pastry and creamy latte for a fraction of what it will cost you at one of your more fancy establishments. It's worth seeking out this place early on a Saturday morning if only to grab a $6 tray chock full of croissant-y goodies; plain, chocolate and almond. And of course, you need to get one to eat then and there as well! The only downfall of this place (besides it's slightly difficult to get to location), is the general atmos. As I mentioned before, this is a working bakery set on an industrial estate. There are seats outside, but they are few and far between. The view is of the surrounding warehouses, with some old cracked cement pots with a few token plants for greenery. The music is also of some questionable taste at time - you'll have a few charming Parisian cafe tunes, but then mysteriously Zamfir will suddenly bust some panpipe moves. You can't help but think that with a little more careful planning, some more care taken with the outside decor and keeping up with the oh-so-French-chic musique that this bakery could become a real trendy hit with the Southerners. However, until then, I will continue to go for the amazing pastries, great coffee and friendly service. It's worth the trip through the sea of industry, for the best croissants in town. (Probably the same one you've just bout for triple the price at your local cafe!)
