Why it's worth checking out

Pickle in the Middle sits on Unley Road in Unley, a popular and well-heeled inner-southern suburb of Adelaide. A much-loved cafe, it's become a genuine local favourite — the kind of welcoming, quality spot that draws a steady stream of regulars for good coffee and food in a relaxed, characterful setting.

The appeal is that combination of quality cafe fare, good coffee and a relaxed, characterful setting in a convenient Unley location, ideal for a morning coffee, a leisurely brunch or a casual catch-up. In a city that loves its cafes, a spot that's nailed the fundamentals becomes a real fixture, and Pickle in the Middle has clearly won over a loyal following.

With a 4.5 rating from more than 600 reviews, it's clearly hitting the mark. Menus, opening hours and offerings change with the seasons, and a popular cafe gets busy on weekend mornings, so it's worth checking current details before a special trip — though for a great coffee and a quality bite, it's often just a matter of dropping in and finding a spot among the regulars in Unley.
