They say the history of the world is encompassed in a single grain of sand. In a similar manner, the Adelaide River Inn encompasses a large chunk of the Northern Territory’s history and the restaurant is a great place to stop for a snack or a light lunch on your way through.

It’s situated in a township of just 250 people which began as a stopover between Darwin and Katherine and became an army base during WWII. The Inn itself was established in 1873 on the southern side of the Adelaide River (notorious for its large population of saltwater crocs) and has seen a few name changes in its time as well as witnessing a murder in 1975! It is also home to the Charlie the Buffalo who you may remember from the Crocodile Dundee movies.

These days the Adelaide River Inn is a great place to stop for a snack or a light lunch on your way through. The leafy surrounds and proximity to the river lend a relaxing feel to the outdoor dining area; the easy pace of life overtakes you. The menu offers a good selection of pub favourites: think steaks, burgers, salads and chips. Their barra and chips is famous. Adelaide River Inn is licenced and offers wine by the glass, otherwise grab some takeaway tucker and a bottle of wine from the bottleshop next door and have yourself a picnic.
