Why it's worth checking out
Aurora Lab and Terrace sits on Light Square in the heart of Adelaide's CBD. A near-perfect 4.9 rating from 67 reviews marks it as a genuine local favourite.
The appeal is a stylish bar-and-terrace with live music and a devoted following — a lovely spot for a drink, a feed and a bit of atmosphere, with the bonus of an outdoor terrace. Its central Light Square location, in the city's lively west end, makes it an easy and convenient destination.
