Recent roadworks have finally come to pass. Coming to the end of its redevelopment, King William Road is back open and revitalised with an array of exciting new businesses opening up; making it Adelaide’s most newly renovated destination for eating, drinking and shopping.

Joybird

The classic charcoal chicken joint meets a wine and cocktail bar. Newly opened last week by head chef of Leigh Street restaurant Shobosho, Adam Liston, and restaurateur Simon Kardachi, Joybird serves up roast chook, chips, wraps and sides with a modern spin.

“Basically, it’s a retro chicken and chip shop with a worldly approach. Remembering as a kid having chicken and chips as takeaway, which I now take my daughter to once a week. We’re trying to recreate that but with different flavours, roasted potatoes, and heaps of salads”, Adam says.

Mr Potato

The popular health-conscious shop Mr Potato is redefining the humble, misunderstood potato and transforming the fast food game – offering up healthy, wholesome meals at take-away speed and price. Choose a sweet potato or Spud Lite 25% less carb potato and top with a range of nutritious salads, proteins and condiments.

Founded by a model and a 36er’s development player – you can rest assured Mr Potato has been designed to get you your carb fix without throwing off the diet.

New Greek restaurant Agapi 160 serves up traditional Greek cuisine with a twist. Expect to see all your favourite flavours on the menu, just presented differently. Agapi’s Octapodi tis Skaras features flavours of beetroot and walnut, and the classic baklava is served aside pistachio ice cream and Greek coffee soil.

Agapi is a cosy and intimate venue, seating just over thirty people indoors, with more room outdoors once the renovations are completed.

Local artisanal chocolatier Steven ter Horst has moved in, blessing Hyde Park with his legendary handmade chocolate and pastries.

An open plan kitchen means that customers can see where Steven makes every chocolatey morsel!

“We invite customers in to experience a real hot chocolate, European style,” says Steven. “We use Couverture to give a rich taste.”
