Why it's worth checking out
cha-no-wa sits on King William Street in the heart of Adelaide's CBD, in South Australia. With 187 reviews behind its 4.5 rating, it's a genuine local favourite.
The appeal is a relaxed, quality cafe with a devoted following — somewhere to settle in for a great coffee or tea, a bite and a catch-up, often with a Japanese touch as the name suggests, right in the city. Its central location makes it an easy and welcoming stop.
Cafe menus, specials and trading hours change over time, and it can get busy at peak times. If you're after something particular or specific opening hours, it's worth confirming the current details directly with the cafe before you head over.
