Like someone else said it all depends what your after.
heres a few, proberly not for your mate but i'll add them for the 'I reckon every city should have a list like this, and as I couldn't find one, lets kick it off here.' factor
Heres a few for late nites out on the tiles in the main entertainment districts in the city.
If your after a late nite completely packed out irish git place playing all the ussual sort of comericial music way to loud and picking up a hot young chick with no taste whatso ever (I say no taste whatso ever because anyone who goes there has no real taste in music or nite life) try PJ obriens on east terrace.
Its hot and sticky and it may take you 15mins to get a drink after 10-11pm. But some people like that stuff, hence why it gets packed out, really shitty coverbands aswell. During the day its a OK drinking hole though if irish bars are your thing.
Pretty much all the irish git places are the same as that late at nite, I guess everywhere not just Adelaide.
If casino is your thing thats open all hours and theres a few bars, a couple of which you can actually hear yourself think in and ussually people are friendly, I don't really recommend them so much but I hit them every so often for a hit of black jack and some roulette, pale and sparkling on tap and I don't think its expensive. Allthough I always seem to leave with no money I don't thinks its because of the beer price.
Naked dancing ladies?
hindley st theres Crazy horse, Club 108 or if your a bit more swish The Palace all within a few metres of each other, or if your that way inclined theres a male revue somewhere< no I don't know exactly where :blink:
The local metal scene is pretty big
enigma bar a couple fridays a month, fowlers live (not just metal but a gig venue were some national and international bands play), The lizard lounge or the magil club just out of town on saturdays. Crown and anchor in a pinch but thats more uni no taste stuff but during the day its OK, coopers and james squires etc.
Local metal gig guide
here adresses for venues on there somewhere aswell. Give the crown and anchor a wide birth maybe if you have a fear of emo kids.

Worlds end just across the road from enigma bar down hindley st west, A bar with james squire and good crowds, not your PJ obrien type punters! Pretty normal crowds. The enigma bar is more a specific scene joint from bogan metal > punk > goth > emo > hardcore > glam metal and all in between etc. Pretty cheap swill to be had as thats all those sort of punters can afford. :lol:
Belgian beer cafe < a actaull real recommendation for everyone unlike a few I posted above. its just down from the exeter and austral in ebenezer place.
A nicer place on hindley st is a relatively new place called the dog and duck, 24 beers on tap and more in the fridge. Of the 24 only a couple are worthwhile and different like rogers, the rest is the ussuall you get everywhere. mountain goat and LC in the fridge and a couple others I can't recall.
Worth a drink in there.
Euro bar up the track toward the mall of hindley st you'll find a nicer bar with gulf brewery beers in bottles, not a bad bar and worth a look.
If your own a ute with a bundy sticker etc and a cowboy hat then the woolshed on hindley st would be the place for you to go.
Theres a few for now.
Sorry I know some of these reviews arn't very great but hey theres a time and a places for all sorts at least when I'am out on the tiles.
