Why it's worth checking out
Hellbound Wine Bar sits on Hawker Street at Bowden, in Adelaide's revitalised inner-west near Hindmarsh. A much-loved wine bar, it's earned an outstanding reputation — combining a thoughtful, characterful wine selection with good food and a relaxed, intimate atmosphere, the kind of in-the-know spot that wine lovers seek out for a quality drink in a great setting.
The appeal is that combination of a considered, interesting wine list, good food and a warm, characterful atmosphere in the trendy Bowden precinct, ideal for a relaxed glass, a catch-up over wine or a sociable evening. A wine bar with a genuine point of view and quality offering really stands out, and Hellbound has clearly won over a devoted following.
With a 4.8 rating from more than 180 reviews, it's clearly delighting its guests. The wine list, any food, opening hours and pricing vary, and a popular, intimate wine bar gets busy over weekends, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly where needed before you go — particularly for a weekend, a group or a table at a peak time at Bowden — though for a quality glass in a characterful setting, it's well worth seeking out Hellbound.
