Overview

Sitting on popular Rundle Street in an elegant 150-year-old building, the Austral is bustling with people most days of the week. Wooden bars and furniture give this place a homely, old-style look. A couple of wacky paintings add an arty edge. Local university students usually flood the front bar while the dining room attracts all ages and types. Live bands and DJs play music most nights of the week. Budget accommodation is also available and bookings can be made online. The Austral serves inexpensive pub snacks and elegant modern meals, together with a wide range of beers, wines and spirits.
