The Best Pubs in Adelaide with Fireplaces For a Cosy Winter

Wine and dine your way through winter with crackling fires and seasonal plates at the best pubs in Adelaide with fireplaces.

During the cooler months, Adelaide’s pubs truly come into their own with venues lighting up their fireplaces, adding hearty roasts to their menus and brewing aromatic mulled wines, making it difficult to find anywhere that’s more inviting.

From rustic spots in the Adelaide Hills to charming locals in the CBD, get ready to snuggle up; these are the best pubs in Adelaide with fireplaces to curl up beside this winter. 

The Crafers Hotel

Experience a slice of Adelaide history at The Crafers Hotel, ready to welcome you warmly for dining, a delicious drink and even a luxurious stay.

An easy 20 minutes from Adelaide’s CBD, the bistro style food is available for lunch and dinner with oysters and fries to share, hearty Autumnal main courses, and a fireplace to warm yourself in front of while escaping that chill that only a good pub with a fireplace can fix.

Bridgewater Inn

Bridgewater Inn

Notably one of the best pubs in the summer, you won’t be surprised to hear that the Bridgewater Inn is also one of the best pubs in Adelaide with a fireplace, making it equally as popular in winter.

Get away with the family, your friends or just you and the dog - you can’t go wrong with one of their hearty meals and a tasty cocktail as you settle in and warm up by the fire.

387 Mount Barker Road, Bridgewater

Inglewood Inn

Inglewood Inn

Loved by locals and visitors in summer for its winning combo of alfresco dining and killer views across the Adelaide Hills, the Inglewood Inn is equally popular in the wintertime.

Established in 1857, this rustic tavern mixes an old-fashioned flare with a modern twist across both its food and drink offerings. Boasting a menu unlike any other ordinary pub, after you dine be sure to acquaint yourself with their wine and gin bar.

With fireplaces in the restaurant, parlour and beer deck, you can eat, drink and be merry amongst the beautiful scenery without feeling the winter chill.  

1931 North East Road, Inglewood

The Unley

The Unley

Offering a warm and welcoming space to spend your time from brunch through to late into the evening, The Unley boasts a kitchen, bar, an excellent rooftop space for sunny days and a roaring fireplace for chilly evenings.

Get yourself a large glass of red and a hearty Chef’s selection Unley Roast dinner to make a cold, drab day into the best day of the week.

The Brickmakers Arms in Brompton has been given a dazzling new lease of life, complete with a super stylish bar area, bright and airy interiors, ample seating options and a cosy classic pub fireplace.

As if that wasn't enough to make this a winter regular, the menu is full of starters to share plates, classic pub favourites and larger mains to be enjoyed across lunch and dinner sittings.

36 Chief Street, Brompton

Hahndorf Inn

Hahndorf Inn

Loved by locals and tourists alike for its German charm, traditional surroundings and cosy atmosphere, the Hahndorf Inn is a prime spot to spend some quality time as the weather cools down.

There’s ample seating to sip a local wine or German beer in as the exposed brick and stone walls are lit with the glow of the smouldering pub fireplace.

35 Mount Barker Road, Hahndorf

The British Hotel

The British

While there’s thankfully no shortage of classic pubs in Adelaide, few possess quintessential British charm quite like North Adelaide’s The British.

Come wintertime, you and your crew can nestle in prime posi by the open fire and warm yourself from the inside and out, accompanied by some delicious gastropub fare.

58 Finniss Street, North Adelaide

The Scenic Hotel

The Scenic Hotel

Follow the winding roads up to the Adelaide Hills and soon you'll be taking in the stunning Scenic Hotel.

Old Norton Summit Road, Norton Summit

Uraidla Hotel

Uraidla Hotel

With exposed brick and beams, classy and comfortable furnishings, delightful lighting and occasionally mulled wine on the menu, you’ll be transported to another era at the famous Uraidla Hotel.

Top it all off with their snug fireplace in the perfect position to heat the entire room with plush leather armchairs, and you’re hard-pressed to find a cosier winter haven.

Largs Pier Hotel

Largs Pier Hotel

You’ve just completed a gorgeous winter walk down at Largs beach, the wind has battered you and your lungs are filled with fresh, salty air.

Complete your winter beach day by sinking into one of the Largs Pier Hotels' large armchairs and gently toast your healthy efforts in front of their roaring fire.

198 Esplanade, Largs Bay

Royal Oak Hotel

Royal Oak Hotel

Cross your fingers and hope that no one else has nabbed the prime spot in front of the Royal Oak Hotel fire, as it's naturally the very best spot in the cooler months.

As a consolation if you do miss the fireplace-adjacent seats, it would be difficult to find a bad spot within this quirky, charming pub that serves great food and even better vibes.

123 O'Connell Street, North Adelaide

The Gilbert Street Hotel

The Gilbert Street Hotel

How could a pub that offers a fine cocktail happy hour and one of the best beer gardens around get any better? A crackling fireplace surrounded by bare brick, that’s how.

Close enough to the CBD action to nip in after your shopping, yet far enough out that it isn’t packed with people the whole time, The Gilbert Street Hotel is pub perfection, and one of Adelaide's best pubs with a fireplace. Meet you there?
