The local beaches of Adelaide are full of divine eating and drinking locations. Here are just a few of our favourites...
Oar for all day breakfast/brunch is lovely, right on West Lake and about a 10 minute walk fro our beach house

Buddha's kitchen(107 Military Rd, Semaphore South) is 2.5km's away (you could walk along the esplanade/beach or Military Rd to get there). Lovely Thai food in an intimate setting.
Eat in or take away. Not a big place, seats about 30 people, so either book or prepare to wait.
Semaphore Rd has a plethora of dining options (from fish and chips to pubs to restaurants, breakfast café's and coffee shops). My favorite place to eat dinner is Lickerish

**Mr Pilgrim’s, 80 Semaphore Rd, does a wonderful coffee and brunch/lunch.

**RollN: Across the road (and a bit closer toward the beach) on the corner of Bower and Samson Roads is a great little Vietnamese take away place for cold rolls, dumplings, curry’s and Vietnamese meat rolls, more of a place to pick up yummy food from. http://www.urbanspoon.com/r/336/1763411/restaurant/Western-Suburbs/RollN-On-Bower-Adelaide
