The Excelsior Hotel is a family-run pub on Coglin Street in Brompton, Adelaide, serving bistro meals and cold beers since 1884. Freshly renovated in 2026, it’s still the same warm welcome the western suburbs have always known. We look forward to seeing you soon.
The Excelsior’s been through a fair few chapters since 1884. It was known as the Phantom Bar once upon a time, and for three decades it was the meeting point for thousands of fans on Rowley Park Speedway race nights. Some locals still ask about both eras.
The Barreau family has been part of the story for the last 30 years, with deep roots in South Australian pubs and a long-standing connection to this particular building. These days it’s brothers Brad and Jake serving up beers behind the bar and daughter Brooke holding the reins in the gaming room. Same family, same hospitality, just a freshly renovated space to enjoy it in.
Located at 110 Coglin St, Brompton SA 5007, the Excelsior Hotel is an easy stop for locals across Brompton, Bowden, Hindmarsh, Thebarton and the wider western suburbs.
