Hi guys and girls,

I hope it's okay to be posting here - if not, feel free to move this thread to a more appropriate area.

Anyway, I'm looking to fly down to Adelaide for both my first game at Adelaide Oval, but also for my first time in your great city. I'll be travelling with my girlfriend who is also a SUNS supporter, and we'll be going to the Saturday matchup in the afternoon.

I'm sure I won't have any issues with getting to/from the airport, etc, but I was wondering if Adelaide had any good footy pubs, and if there's any 'must do' things over the weekend Or even if there are 'better' seats at AO that other! We'll likely be flying in Thursday night, and will have Friday and Saturday there before returning to Brisbane on the Sunday.

Any tips or suggestions for our time in Adelaide would be fantastic and greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

There's a nice place you can go for a drink and a feed just a couple of Ks down Port Road and to your right.

Because I don't live under a rock.

Port Road is littered with these establishments.

Seriously?! First date with Mrs EVB ended up with us sharing an AB at blue and white. Classy lady she is.

Red and white > B&W

This is both factually incorrect and blasphemous. Cretin.

Was the case 5-6 years ago when I went to school in the area

Plus they had an awesome time crisis game we spent way too much money on

Probably depends on what you're into but the Adelaide food markets are worth a visit.

Like a yiros, no one has ever tasted one while sober

You'd have to be drunk to eat it because I'm sure that's what would come up.

Rubbish.
Burger bar (aka Red and white) is crap compared with the blue and white.
Burger bar also stole the AB from them...the only reason theyre better is coz they have arcade games.

I thought for a moment people were referring to a similar establishment to the right that's now a Robert Timms coffee shop

If you're into Chinese food, Gouger st (the markets are off Gouger) is great. And by Chinese food, I mean real Chinese food, and not the westernised slop that is so popular in Australia. There are also a few Vietnamese, Korean, and Thai options mixed in too. Happy to provide a few suggestions if you'd like.

As much as I love westernised slop, I'm always down for the authentic stuff!
