The cafe itself is tastefully decorated in red and brown tones. I particularly like the upholstered bench seating which is really comfortable. At the back of the shop you can see the staff making waffles, crepes and doughnuts so you know they are fresh. You can find the usual array of quality, Copenhagen ice cream flavours to take away. There is a specific dessert menu with more temptations than you could possibly ever want. The coffee is passable but not great. The toppings bar is the only thing they have got wrong here. If you are seated in the cafe you have a parade of kids in front of you playing about with the toppings making a noise and a mess. If it is a nice day there is also seating outside in the square which is a good option but it is quite a distance from the cafe itself.

Staff are used to a fast paced so the queue always moves quickly and those dining in for some fondue, shared mega sundaes or crepes will find their food and drinks coming out promptly. The dine in menu is varied and I love the shared sundaes where you can eat doughnuts and brownies and other chocolate bits in a massive bowl with a few friends (or yourself if you're having one of those days). Seating can be stretched so you'll want to save seats pretty quick smart. I'd recommend the waffles.

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.

The Coffee Bean Shop is where I purchase my Mexican Organic coffee when Ross the boss has it in…read morestock, which is most of the time. I've caught him out once or twice. When that has happened I do try other types of coffee from his available collection, but mostly it's the Mexican Organic I go for. Ross and his team have a very good range and even though it is an expensive item, some things in life just have to be right before I can deal with them. I do not like the effects of instant coffee on my system, I almost always end up with a stomach gripe if I drink instant coffee, and you simply don't want to know about that. So I usually drink plunger coffee, it is one of my special things in life I suppose. As far as The Coffee Bean Shop goes they stock a range of implements to create coffee in - mostly the little Italian stove-top espresso jugs, but I tend not to favour them because they are made from aluminium and I understand that too much aluminium heated and exposed to something you then drink can cause some brain function problems over time - just something I read that has stuck. That's why I plunge, but you know, the occasional aluminium jug espresso coffee is no big deal. They do the grinding for you if you need it done, and they use a range of coffee packets that are a nice plane brown bag, so its a pretty sustainable system. Their selection of products includes some pre-ground coffee beans in little plastic pails with a lid, a variety of fragrant and tasty teas, blends of the tea, and the coffee and tea making equipment I mentioned above plus other stuff and some specialty sweets that you'd have with a beverage, or give as a gift - try a chocolate coated coffee bean - wow!

I have been going to the Coffee Bean Shop for years now. The market stall only just recently had a…read moreface lift, and I am really happy for them! It looks amazing, they really did a great job. I am happy to see that this stall got updated as it is often one of the first stall you see when entering the Markets from the carpark escalators. The staff at this stall are always very friendly and happy to have a chat about the different varieties of coffee and what they taste like. You will find some amazing beans from all over the world. In particular my partner and I are quite fond of the Organic Mexican beans. Full flavour while being quite creamy and nutty. If you have a tighter budget, why not try their house blends. They are not too bad, the espresso blend is probably the best they offer in that range. If you need ground beans, they will grind them to the style that suits your brew equipment. We prefer to grind them at home to ensure that the coffee is fresh. If you are searching for a gift for a coffee lover, look no further! Purchase them an Aeropress which are sold here. They are a single cup air pressure plunger. They make the perfect brew away from home. My partner loves his and uses it at work every day!

I discovered it as I was wandering through Goodwood late one morning and decided to stop by for a quick bit of morning tea. The inside has this sixties feel about the place with a lot of old artifacts scattered around the room. They also have a nice selection of cakes, though I didn't try any because I wasn't particularly hungry (I ended up having a cup of tea). It was a nice quiet place where I could sit down with a pot of tea for about fifteen minutes. I guess if there is something that I didn't like about the place and that was that the tea had a bit of a bite to it, which is a shame, since it was a nice place overall.

Rarely do I pass by and see the adjoining cafe with a seat free, and generally quite a bit of hob-nob chicky eye candy! I drop in myself about once a fortnight for the odd pie or two. I have always been very happy with the quality and the service is always with a cute smile! I had a Chilli pie last time and it has quite a bit of heat, which made me smile on the inside! Many 'chilli' pies I have had at other bakeries are a little tame on the spice, so it is good to see a shop with a bit of guts!

When we ordered coffee, she smiled sweetly and said "Oh sorry, I turned the machine off because there weren't many customers today, it's actually been quite 'dead'." What did you think we were, dear? ONLY. IN. ADELAIDE. **UPDATE 12/01/15** Dulwich Bakery's lovely, polite business owner Wayne got in touch with me and apologised profusely for the behaviour of the staff which prompted my review. His apology has redeemed the place somewhat for me; he even offered coffees on the house on my next visit to apologise and keep my custom. I'll be taking him up on that kind offer. He was absolutely livid to learn that one of his staff, who are according to him put through their paces regularly with professional retail trainers, would turn off their coffee machine almost 2 hours prior to closing...and has taken steps to ensure it doesn't happen again. Thanks for that Wayne, mighty big of you. Apathy in hospitality and service is contagious around Adelaide; glad to hear it's being dealt with at this little bakery, which for me has regained some of its sweetness.

Make sure your planned visit is a small, intimate one, and not a larger gathering as you're most likely going to bump elbows in the small establishment. The first impression was excellent as we were cheerily greeted by the man (who I presume to be the owner/operator) serving from the front counter as soon as we walked in, he handed us menus and allowed us to find a seat we liked. The dessert list was great, as was the coffee list (including coffees with liquor - yum!) and a peppermint coffee that is on my next-to-try list. The cappuccino that I ordered was really tasty, a perfect amount of foam with no bitter over-heated coffee taste. We had the apple, cinnamon & yoghurt crepes which were AMAAAZING!! Perfect crepey-ness. Thin but fluffy and not chewey, light and just sweet enough without being too desserty. My only complaint is that I felt the place was a little bit dark, but there is a seat by the front window.
