Customer's reviews
One of the best halal cafes I’ve been to here. It doesn’t have the same, generic halal food that most of Adelaide has. It’s a good place for Muslims to try something different than we usually eat, and the food was divine.
The space in itself feels a little small, but with all the handmade decor and the warm lights, it feels a lot more cosy and comfortable. You can feel the sustainability in all of the decorations.
The service when I went was a bit late, but this is probably because we had a table of 12+ people. When I observed the other tables, their service was quick and orderly.
All in all, I would absolutely return here. Majorly recommend to people who enjoy their breakfast/brunches, not only Muslims.

Started our day right with a delicious, cozy family breakfast at @halfcupcafe! Nestled in a fantastic spot near Adelaide Airport, this little gem is perfect for gathering your loved ones over mouthwatering dishes and beautifully brewed coffee. ☕✨
We ordered Coconut Crab Croissant, Cinnamon French Toast, and Fuffly Scramble. 🥐🍞🍳
Not only can you enjoy scrumptious meals here, but you can also dive into their hands-on workshops to master the art of coffee making - from cold drip to stunning latte art! 🎨💖
And don’t miss out on @livingjute within the café! Explore eco-friendly products made from natural jute fibre — stylish bags, home décor, and accessories that show just how fashionable being environmentally conscious can be. 🌍😍

Thankyou @halfcupcafe for having us

Absolute GEM of a business. Right from the warm greeting by staff and fellow patrons we knew we’d found something very special. Coffee is excellent, fresh baked goods have to be tasted to be believed, the Hash Brown Benedict (with added avo) and the Bengal Street Breakfast are a feast for the senses ( and excellent value). The added bonus was being surrounded by a gorgeous display of hand crafted items (available for sale with monies supporting worthy communities). The beautiful ethos of Half Cup Cafe is felt, tasted and experienced through their top quality products and customer service. This will most definitely be at the top of our list when we are next visiting Adelaide. Thank you all @ Half Cup Cafe
