Hula Hoop - KENSINGTON PARK

Business owners, Steph and Jon Hamra, initially opened the Hula Hoop bar on one side of the Regal theatre while operating the Uxbridge Kitchen, a cosy little cafe, on the opposite end. It was only recently that they decided to consolidate the two businesses under the Hula Hoop banner. The space that was formerly the Uxbridge Kitchen is the part of Hula Hoop that is always first to open with the opposite end primarily used for overflow. Available from 8am-3pm is the all-day menu that consists of granola, croissants, brioche, bruschetta, salad and soup. From 4pm, the night menu kicks into action and is more Mediterranean influenced.

Delightful food, atmosphere, and service! A beautiful area for relaxing after work drinks or even dinner I'm making this a regular hang out spot!

These proprietors are new it would seem to the food industry.    The ambiance of their outlets is well balanced, and a warm environment is created.   <br/ They are providing a new wine bar food outlet in a desperate location (not much really like this around) so they provide a great venue for the locales.<br/ <br/ Things I didn 't mesh with:  a restaurant that provides dishes from an electric salamander going at full heat, and the only other thing I could see as a kitchen at the same bench was some hot pot dish???   confused.  <br/ There is a new trend to have food 'bits ' out on display for all and sundry to look, at sneeze on, breathe on while you wait to get served....   doesn 't sit with me.    <br/ What else didn 't sit with me,  was the cost of food items,  but if the people of the location are prepared to pay that price.....more fool them really.     Yes it was good enough to eat, but overpriced.   Had from the 'chef 's bench ' was risotto balls, minimalist charcuterie plate, meatballs (to Manu 's point....not enough sauce).  What was a nice touch was the home made crostini sticks.<br/ <br/ Evident were some tosser attitudes  ...it may match the locale, though on top of it all, the service was keen and friendly.<br/ <br/ What is a classic,  in the outside seating area the lights come on at a full bore while the cinema next door is revving up for the showing of the next pic.   All good though when the pic starts, the lights dim in unison.....   when they are on though it is a bit like the end of the night at the night clubs   bright lights.... eeek   but it is only for a short stint thankfully.

Just what adelaide needs. My husband and I have visited this new bar twice since its been opened and have been very impressed both times! great food, great service, beautiful decor and wonderful place to meet with friends. would definitely recommend! thanks for bringing some excitement to the suburbs hula hoop!

John and the Team at HH are great. Friendly, and helpful. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
