Malt Shovel Taphouse Adelaide

This should be THE place to go. And if you changed your staff or at least their righteous attitudes it would be!!
On 4 separate times during being there, we were treated to a,” no you didn’t book a low table”, ( I had the confirmation), you didn’t order a flat white, ( we had the receipt!),” I don’t know what kind of leaf it is?..I’ll check with the kitchen(but didn’t), and on overhearing us discussing coffees were abruptly told, “order at the bar”! We weren’t even addressing her! Woeful attitudes. Seriously needs addressing. The location is five star. Food was very nice. Potential is amazing. But staff can make or break a business.

Delicious food, fantastic atmosphere and an amazing view.

The food and service were really good. A lovely place to spend a warm summers evening

We had the Valentine’s Day set menu. Great value for money and delicious

Was recommended by a friend, awesome food my husband gave it 10/10

Nice easy pub. Great location on the Torrens with good food.

We were celebrating a birthday and took a cake in , on asking for it they brought it out in the carrier bag and dumped it on the table , no interest in us at all !

Great location, would return for a drink but not for food.

Meal was amazing had the banquet delicious. Fried Mushrooms the 6 of us loved.
Found out it was our 30 anniversary we got a free dessert for all

Had a great meal before going to the BBL , great service , loads of good quality food , staff very knowledgeable on there selection of beers .

Had a great afternoon and the service was fantastic

Not really much on the menu, considering the premium Location of the venu. Menu item chicken roll sounds like I’m at a primary school canteen.

Food was okay, service was slack. Asked for a side of ketchup and hard to order it and get a table number just to have it like cmon. Great place for drinks and light snacks, potential to be more

Fantastic food and beautiful venue
Would definitely recommend and return 😊

Food quality was competent but just another generic place in terms of ambience. If you're in the area, an ok option, but I wouldn't go out of the way to dine there.

We went for dinner but it was so loud. Understand it was New Years Eve

Service was a little hit and miss.
Hubby had the lamb which was delicious but a smallish portion is it didn't come with anything. Some bread or salad would've been nice.
I had the chicken burger and swapped out the chips for the truffle fries. Good decision - burger was small but delicious and the truffle fries were scrumptious.
Pet peeve - didn't accept cash - only cc.

The food was beautiful & delicious but so small - we had to find somewhere else to eat on the way home.

Loved the venue! Great food and great atmosphere. Will definitely be back and will be recommending to others to visit. A great place to have a family Sunday dinner without having to lift a finger to get perfect roast meet and delicious sides. A new favourite for our family.

The food was delicious, and the staff were really friendly and helpful. The $55pp feed me was really good value!

OMG the food here was so good that I went up to the chef to say a big thank you. I'm not a huge lamb lover, but my partner ordered it. When it arrived I took a bite and my partner almost had to pry the plate from my hands. It was drizzled with a smokey yogurt sauce which was the perfect accompaniment. I had ordered the 1/2 chicken which was very tender and was also perfect. As sides we had the potatoes that had a slight malt vinegar overtone and sea salt. We also had greens. Together with the beer we consumed, on this sunny evening overlooking the Torrens, we were in beer and food heaven. I told the chef I would write a great review. And here it is. We will be back! I

Location, drinks and staff were great, the food was average.
Would go again for drinks in a lovely location.

Very nice lunch in a beautiful setting. Ideal way to dine before catching a show. Lovely day.

Great food great service great atmosphere wonderful staff and an excellent time spent with friends before and after football. Fabulous anytime 👍

Great experience at the Malt Shovel Taphouse for my birthday. Good table, friendly service and the food was delicious. Busy atmosphere pre-game for the Adelaide Oval but wasn't too loud, even the live music was at just the right volume to enjoy without being deafening. Pricey but manageable.

Had beef chips- tasty but small serve of 4.
Main was hot roll with chips-nice and tasty.
Dessert options -choice of two. Not selected
Awful expresso martini.
Service friendly and helpful with polite staff.

service was great info on all matters was good explained all that goes on will come again

It was my birthday

Loved the roast vegetable salad!!! Super delicious Parmesan fries as well!!!

Food was great and all the staff had exceptional customer service skills 😁

Lovely food, nice atmosphere. The mushrooms were delicious

Not a huge food selection and I couldn’t find the menu online so didn’t know what to expect! Service was the best I have had and that makes all the difference - cocktails were sooo good!!

Very enjoyable venue for a nice lunch out with friends

Meat was very dry. Kids meals were as large as adults, but not very young child friendly.

nice casual dining experience. Was very quite when we visited so not a lot of ambience. Service was good, food was also good but a little on the pricey side

Food was great and customer service was top notch. We went on a rainy day so not many people, but atmosphere was inviting. Only drama was a lot of the tap beers weren’t available, which is why we decided on a ‘Taphouse’ rather than a cafe. Hopefully after covid restrictions ease they’ll be able to get back to normal.

Great experience staff exceptional

Food, Service and Location were all outstanding.

The Beef Chips were divine. Please don't ever take them off them menu. We also thoroughly enjoyed the tasty lamb roll.

We have always enjoyed the Malt Taphouse every time that we have visited the food, service, ambience and the friendly staff is exceptional the close proximity to the city and the Adelaide Oval we find, for us, a great place to visit

always a friendly welcome great service staff that are always attentive amazing range of beer
