Why it's worth checking out
The Elephant British Pub sits on Cinema Place in the heart of the Adelaide CBD. A much-loved British-style pub, it's a genuine city fixture — combining a warm, characterful British-pub atmosphere with hearty pub food, good drinks and a welcoming feel, the kind of crowd-pleasing spot that brings a bit of British charm to the city.
The appeal is that combination of a great British-pub atmosphere, hearty pub food, good drinks and the convivial charm of a proper British pub in a central Adelaide location, ideal for a relaxed meal, a pint with friends, catching the sport or a fun night out. The warm, welcoming character and British-pub feel have broad appeal, and the Elephant has clearly won over a big, loyal following.
With a 4.3 rating from more than 1,200 reviews, it's clearly a popular, well-loved spot. Menus, drinks lists, opening hours, any sport and events vary, so it's worth checking current details before you go — though for a pint, a hearty feed and a warm British-pub atmosphere, it's often just a matter of dropping in at the Elephant in central Adelaide.
