Adelaide: Bars & Nightlife

Bars and pubs can be found all over Adelaide, as drinking beer and wine is something of an Aussie national pastime. Many of these establishments are housed in fine historic buildings and also offer good local food. Nightlife in Adelaide is confined to certain streets, whereas some parts of the centre become quite deserted in the evening. The centres of the action are Hindley Street with its brasher and neon-lit strip and Rundle Street with its more bohemian pubs and bars. The beach suburb of Glenelg also has a lively and youthful scene both during the day and night.
