Still coming here after all this time.
It's pretty much an institution and a role model for all the other cafes around it.

Been here before and service and food have been great. Today was totally the reverse, wrong drinks served, hot chocolate served in a take away cup, bacon dry and burnt on top of a 35 minute wait. Manager at the end was very apologetic though.

Approximate cost: $45

Like seriously, why would you pass up this place!
Fantastic job with the coffee and their meals. Come here for breakfast or lunch generally and love it each time.
Our work place sometimes even gets catering from here and it's awesome.

This really is a great cafe! My girlfriend and I had a very enjoyable breakfast here late last year. Our meals were of a decent size, were well presented and they used very fresh ingredients. Coffee was also great! Will definitely be returning for lunch soon.

Highly recommend.

My husband and I enjoyed a delicious breakfast here recently. They have such a huge menu, it wasn't easy to make a decision. My husband ordered The Works and I tried the scrumptious banana pancakes with cream and caramel sauce, so yummy.

After checking out the lunch menu, we have decided we will have to return as it looks fabulous and the prices really are very reasonable. They also do a great coffee!

Service was fast and friendly, will be returning.

Approximate cost: $13

This is my favourite breakfast spot in Adelaide with a huge variety of food that I'm spoilt for choice every single time! I would have to say my favourite so far would be the french toast with poached apples and maple syrup. Absolutely divine! The place is always pumping and the freshly made juices are awesome!

Had breakfast here with my partner the other day. From the outside it looks like a delightful venue and on the inside it was even better.
We ordered our coffees and toast at the counter. Coffee was fantastic and made with love, coffee was strong and full of body just the way I like it. Food was as I expected.
definitely somewhere I can see myself coming back over and over again.

This is a great cafe. It's open for breakfast and lunch all the way in to the late afternoon. I am a big fan of the haloumi and pear salad. It's a generous portion (a little too much) but there's no skimping on the haloumi. They have fresh juice too - absolutely delicious and fresh, especially great in summer. I recommend carrot, apple, ginger and celery juice. The staff are really friendly and welcoming and there is a good atmosphere. Creative artwork hangs on the walls and there is free wifi. Only thing is the noise - it is a little noisy. But probably because it's fairly big and the floor is tiled.
Indoor and outdoor seating. Recommend.

Approximate cost: $16

Have only been to etc twice but both times were fantastic and made me want to go again! Every time I go past they are packed! They have a huge menu, something for everyone! They offer breakfast and lunch. Remember to book to avoid disappointment as they get quite busy.

whenever im free during weekends, i would definitely go there to have my weekend breakfast over there. They serve one of the breakfast menu in adelaide and i would recommend 'etc works' of you are a first timer. Usually i will have my breakfast with a cup of coffee, but their coffee is just ordinary, nothing special.

The cooks at ETC have a Midas touch; everything they cook is gold!
This place is busy and booking is essential. I prefer some privacy while I eat but this place is such a special treat, I've brought friends from interstate here for late breakfast (their breakfast menu goes til quite late in the day - win!).

Their pancakes are fabulous as others have said, and they are generous people; if you don't want a full serve, there are plenty of small serves of light breakfasts that are priced accordingly. It's so frustrating when you ask for a half of the full breakfast ($14) and are charged $12 for your limp little half serve. Not at ETC; here those of us with hangovers or small appetites are given the same dignity as our full-serve brothers and sisters!

If anyone says Adelaide doesn't have good cafes, take them to ETC and change their mind!

Great spot for breakfast. Highly recommended you book if intending to go there after about 8am. Great menu - huge variety. Excellent coffee. The pancake stacks are to die for. Service is efficient and polite. Very family friendly too. Been for lunch once and that was great too.

Approximate cost: $20

How can you not love it here! The yummiest pancakes ever!!! Always busy, you really should book - it can get very hectic at peak times. We prefer the brekkie over lunch....... but lunch is great as well.

We love it so much we had our wedding photos taken outside!

Very popular little cafe in Adelaide CBD .This may mean it can get very busy and noisy but the quality of the food and the extensive menu is worth it. Great meeting place for a coffee or a meal. Great value for money. Staff are friendly.

Haven't find a place to eat as good as this one. Fantastic food, excellent coffees. Their breakfast menu is interesting, serving up to 3pm. Try out their field mushroom, it is cooked with balsamic vinegar and served with a slice of buttered bread. It is great!

One of the best cafes we've been to, its excellent in quality and in taste! try their cappuccino or hot chocolate, never been to anywhere makes it so good... Soy lattes are often hard to make, but these guys, made to perfection!

The food is always beautiful and fresh with lots of choice and daily specials in both summer and winter. Recommend the vegi burger or the tomato bruschetta. The coffee is lovely and aromatic and the hot chocolates are rich and great on a cold day.
