Cannelle Fine Foods is a little French Bakery/Patisserie on Magill Road…read more Billing itself as a "croissanterie," at times it seems that croissants are the only thing on offer, which suits me because that is really all I ever come there for. They do, however, also stock an assortment of other baked goods, including Baguettes and a range of french pastries. Everything is baked on the premises and is delicious and fresh. Although no pains are taken in terms of fashionable presentation, there is a small table setting within the 'croissanterie" at which one can take a pastry, or croissant along with a coffee, which is also good.

Both highly recommended…read more Buttery, flakey and light, there's nothing quite like a freshly-baked, hot from the oven croissant, and Cannelle whip up a pretty mean one. As Andrew mentions, there's very little in terms of atmosphere to talk about (which is very un-Parisian of them), and it never seems to be particularly well stocked, having a somewhat empty feeling to the place. But all in all, a good stop for a fresh croissant (or three) - why not take it to nearby Richard's Park, just across busy Magill Rd, and make your own atmosphere.

Our favourite treat from here is a simple pack of dinner rolls, $1.50 for half a dozen, and they are so fresh and fluffy it's not funny. If you put a couple of drips of water on the bun, and warm it in a low oven, you'll get the most perfect, crisp dinner roll that you can break apart, smear with butter and have something that will leave those gorgeous rolls you get in a good restaurant for dead, too. Bags of cocktail quiches and party pies are available, scrolls, donuts, honey logs and eclairs. They do excellent Apple and Apricot turnovers, and if you ask nicely they'll fill one for you with whipped cream for a little extra - ok, so it may not be the healthiest of treats, but boy it's delicious. This is a bakery worth a visit - there are some small tables available so you can eat here, and they do coffee and salad rolls, too, so the 'coffee shop' title is valid :)

You can grab three loaves at a discount, and there's often day old bread cheaper, too - which I reckon is as fresh as picking it up off a supermarket shelf. Given I tend to heat turkish bread in the oven before eating it anyway, I grab the bargains when I can get them. Please note, this isn't a 'bakery' - it's a specialised bakery supplying two products, really well :)

I love the Piadinas from Number 12…read more Of course they'll make you all manner of turkish bread, baguette, toasted sandwich, roll type creations but I just adore their Piadinas. Put anything in a sandwich press and make it as flat as possible and I'm there. They have a variety of really good condiments and the home made tomato relish goes with just about anything so make sure you work it into your lunch somehow. Their breakfast are really good too and even a little fancy as they're often served with olive oil drizzled turkish bread. You can probably give the coffee a pass unless you're not fussy and the atmosphere is a little like a cafeteria. It is light and bright and you can buy the paper, however which are all redeeming characteristics. It's utilitarian ambience is probably reflective of it's monday to friday schedule catering for famished tradies and office workers based in the area.

Parking near it is a pain, particularly when there's anything on at the showgrounds, but it's a convenient walk for a ton of offices in the Wayville area. Food is always fresh - most everything is prepared as ordered. There are daily specials, the coffee is great, and the staff are always very friendly. Servings are generous and prices are fair. Standard menu has a ton of options, or you can create your own roll/sandwich/baguette/lepinja from scratch. Catering is available - and it's always done very professionally, prepared on time to specifications given. We regularly needed food for corporate meetings, etc - all went smoothly with not even a hiccup. Look just to the north east of the showgrounds, on the other side of Goodwood road.

Adelaide is starting to develop some cool suburban areas with collections of small funky…read morebusinesses. My thought is that Croydon has definitely lead this area. Queen Street Café is a great demonstration of a fun creative team. The café itself is very decently sized. Lots of space inside and out. A big long communal table as well if you want to dine alone. During the weekends it does get quite busy, so be sure to get there early. The staff here are friendly and attentive. They are on the look out for when you are ready to order. I think looking back at previous reviews, they are getting better when it comes to service. I ordered the gnocchi with roasted seasonal veg. Lovely pan fried brussel sprouts, roasted pumpkin, spinach, and mushrooms. Best of all, the gnocchi was soooo sooo soft and buttery. Wow, it's been a long time since I have had gnocchi like this. Well done chef! So much flavour in this dish as well. What better to go with a veggie gnocchi than a carrot, orange, and ginger juice. It so so tasty and fresh.

I don't personally want to have kids charging around in a cafe on the one hand, and in between tables and chairs on the side of a reasonably busy road on the other hand. I don't care how trendy it is and I certainly don't care how many young up and coming professionals are discussing the better stocks to buy since the global financial crisis at brunch; if they have children they should be watching them, especially if they insist on sitting outside next to a reasonably busy street. There is a level train crossing at one end of the block here and that means there are regular periods when several cars will be banked up and suddenly driving through. Half a dozen times I saw kids nearly get toppled by traffic while I was sitting here. I was most alarmed. There's such a great children's playground down the road, all fenced in and beautiful - up here in cafe la la land the adult were so engrossed in the food and conversation they just ignored a few kids who were evidently still in play mode. I have decided the place gets enough custom without me talking about the lovely furniture or the strictly word of mouth policy that the owners have - no business card, no brochure, no website... just word of mouth; well, the word of mouth at my mid morning soiree was "Watch out!" Seriously, I'd rather eat somewhere else and leave all the swank alone.

It offers exquisite food and service at cafe prices and the whole experience is amazing. The food here is made with locally grown, seasonal produce to ensure the freshest ingredients every time. This also means that the menu changes seasonally and will surprise you every time you visit. The Scrambled Eggs with Lobster Cream Jelly is a must-order dish! It's a very tasty dish with all the flavors intertwined without being overpowering and with just the right mix. The roasted butternut squash was also great with macadamia nuts and miso mayo. I'm not a big fan of butternut squash, but I thought it was delicious. One thing I really like about this place is that they have a beautiful garden. You can go for a walk there after your meal and experience it.

Two words: Meat Pizza…read more Remember these and you will make good choices when visiting Adelaide Lebanese Bakery. Avoid the pink building with the water fountain out the front (the local brothel, so I hear...) and walk into the shed like building next door to continue making good choices. Make an excellent choice by heading over to the display of beautiful baklava while your meat pizza warms up and choose at least two of these delectable treats. Realise that you have purchased lunch AND an afternoon snack for only a few dollars - probably around 5, and give yourself a little high five (try not to look like too much of a dork whilst doing this...) Spend the mounds of spare cash that you would have otherwise spent on lunch on an array of authentic Lebanese groceries. Do not, under any circumstances, be put off by the very basic presentation of this store. Accept the brilliant food and low prices for what they are - do not question excellence.

I've never even bothered to find out the name of the joint before, but have done the dusty hungover walk from my nearby house dozens of times. It is a tradition amongst my friends to come here for 'meat bread' when hungover - or as the Lebanese Bakery calls it 'meat pizza'. On your right as you enter is a big old woodfire oven and a list of breads you can order. A few are what we traditionally think of as pizza, most are delicious fillings wrapped in folded Lebanese bread. My favourites are the meat bread and the spinach and ricotta bread. Meat bread is a round lebanese bread, topped with spicy mince, tomato and onion, folded in half and cooked in the woodfire. Spinach and ricotta reminds me of a spanokopita, but better - a fresh lebanese bread, expertly folded into the shape of a triangle pasty and filled with friend spinach, red onion, spices and ricotta. DELICIOUS! Beyond the takeaway food, you can get fresh fruit and veg, yoghurt, cheese balls, halva, baklava (and other fresh nutty sweets), tinned food, cooking utensils, fresh breads, and some frozen foods too. Oh and a whole range of Lebanese music on tape and expired foreign candy. The staff are real friendly and this is a bustling little place on a Sunday afternoon.
