Adelaide Arcade
A beautiful heritage shopping arcade in the Adelaide CBD, rated 4.5 across nearly 800 reviews.
Why it's worth checking out
Adelaide Arcade runs between Grenfell Street and Rundle Mall in the heart of the Adelaide CBD. One of the city's most beautiful heritage shopping arcades, it's a genuine Adelaide treasure — a gorgeous, ornate Victorian-era arcade lined with specialty shops, cafes and boutiques, the kind of characterful, atmospheric spot that's a delight to wander while shopping in the city.
The appeal is that combination of beautiful heritage architecture and characterful specialty shopping: the stunning Victorian arcade, with its ornate detailing and lovely light, is a destination in itself, while its boutiques, specialty stores and cafes make for a charming browse just off the bustle of Rundle Mall. It's a quintessential part of shopping in central Adelaide.
With a 4.5 rating from nearly 800 reviews, it's clearly a much-loved spot. The shops, cafes, opening hours and any events vary, so it's worth checking current details if you're after a specific store — though for some characterful shopping or simply to admire one of Adelaide's loveliest heritage buildings, you can simply wander into the Adelaide Arcade off Rundle Mall.
