Why it's worth checking out
ONE BLOCK UP sits on Unley Road in Malvern, near Unley in Adelaide's leafy inner south. A near-perfect 4.9 rating from 34 reviews marks it as a genuine local favourite.
The appeal is a relaxed, quality cafe with a devoted following — somewhere to settle in for a great coffee, a bite and a catch-up, the kind of quality that earns rave reviews, on the popular Unley Road strip. Its location makes it an easy and welcoming stop.
