Overview
My Kingdom for a Horse has firmly established itself as a local favourite for breakfast, brunch, and lunch in Adelaide’s southwest corner. Housed in a spacious, light-filled converted warehouse on Wright Street, the venue pairs a modern industrial aesthetic with the warmth of genuine, friendly service.
This café is more than just a pit stop for caffeine — though its coffee offering is among the best in the city. Beans are roasted in-house, and the team is deeply passionate about sourcing, brewing, and pouring with precision. Espresso, batch brew, pour-over, and cold coffee options are available, alongside retail beans for home brewers.
The all-day menu is ingredient-focused and highly seasonal, celebrating South Australian producers and contemporary café classics with a twist. Dishes range from nourishing grain bowls and brioche French toast to pulled lamb toasties, mushroom ragu with polenta, and house-made granola with poached fruit. Vegan and gluten-free options are available, and the kitchen consistently shows creativity without overcomplication.
The space itself is bright and airy, with polished concrete floors, high ceilings, and a mix of communal and individual tables that make it ideal for solo diners, work meetings, or social catch-ups. Service is relaxed yet attentive, contributing to a vibe that feels both professional and personable.
It’s the kind of place you can return to daily and still find something new — whether it’s a rotating single-origin on the brew bar or a seasonal update on a menu favourite.
