Hospitality is doing it tough once again (alongside live music, gyms and more) so if you want to help your local favourites survive this latest round, seek them out, check if they’re open, and spend, spend, spend! From buying gift vouchers to ordering takeaway, or just getting a daily coffee, there are plenty of ways to show your support to your fav cafes and restaurants. Plus of course, you can still dine in, and enjoy a gorgeous meal made from delicious South Aussie produce. Many of the venues listed in this guide have outdoor dining available, and all venues would love to see you!
If you’d like to be added to the list, fill out the form here, and we’ll endeavour to include your business too!
Patrons need to follow the SA government regulations to be covid safe prior to and on arrival and should check with each venue to ensure they’re open before turning up, as everything is quite volatile at the moment.
