Black Bull Hotel — Restaurant in Adelaide

Had a few drinks in the Beer Garden and it was a great atmosphere and came back a few hours after to have dinner and my family members ordered pizzas and they were amazing but I ordered a $60 Eye Fillet and it tasted very watery like it had been frozen. No problem there, a little off putting but tried to keep eating. My boyfriend went to speak to one of the chefs as he is a chef himself and just wanted to give a little feedback with nothing in return but as he was speaking to the chef, the chef asked all kinds of accusing questions like if he’s a steak connoisseur etc which was not needed as we just wanted to provide feedback but as my partner walked away, he heard the chef mumble that he was a d**khead under his breath which was not called for but my partner wanted to just mind his business as he understands the frustration but it was an inappropriate response. Spoke to the FOH manager on shift and they were very apologetic, mentioned he had not had to deal with this type of response before which was fine because we understand and was given a full refund (the sauce actually cost extra which we weren’t aware about) but appreciate the apology. Manager mentioned he would speak to the chef which we won’t know if he did but we at least approached the effort. Hope this doesn’t happen to anyone else ordering a $60 steak. Good vibe overall but if chefs can’t receive any type of feedback, then they should rethink what it means to be a chef in...

So, wow. We went here for a last minute option to avoid paying $40 for a ragu at the Casino. We had previously gone to a highly reputable steak place on Currie and weren't overly impressed. I had previously enjoyed the Black Bull hotel for their $10 lunch and thought - why not?

I am so glad I did.

It was simply incredible.

Fisherman Dave ordered the rump and it was spectacular. No complaints, only love. The drink was larger than a pint - couldn't finish it. I ordered the $38 special wagyu and it was divine, with the garlic cream cheese, perfect beer battered chips and the salad. Couldn't finish it. Fisherman Dave also ordered an entree which was calamari - also lightly battered to perfection with a delicious aioli.

This visit really tipped the scales as the best place we had eaten during our recent trip to Adelaide.

Oh, bonus stars for the chilled service and the outstanding music on offer! Alot of 90's rock - loved it! ha ha.

I can't wait to go back!

Best wishes, Cath and...

I remember going to your bar awhile ago years ago in fact. Only to have friends watch me fall from poisonous drink spiking. Security picked up my unusable body and throw me in Hindley street no one called triple 000 i was dead standing next to my self in Hindley street. my friends carried my body 1km down Hindley street with the help of people walking past. I was Placed in a van. I woke up next day at my so called friends girl friends place. I thanked my friends for saving me until years later I saw a problem with all this. First wrong move is carry a person unresponsive you carried me to the curb left me there until my own friends did the rest of your doing. pick up the body no call for emergency and carry me 1km puking down your backs to your van. No Police report!!! happened years ago but I do know this much. sound familiar...
