About Café De Vili's

This 24/7 Adelaide institution serves hot bakery staples, all-day breakfasts, and diner comfort whenever cravings hit. Regulars gravitate toward the classic pie floater—a meat pie submerged in pea and ham soup—or hot seasoned chips drenched in thick gravy. The kitchen keeps its full menu running day and night, dishing out chicken schnitzels and bakery-direct pastries to late-night crowds and early commuters alike. In the corner freezer, you can even grab bulk bags of bakery seconds before heading out into the Mile End South night.

  • Full menu around the clock: The entire cooked menu, breakfast plates, and hot pies run 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
  • Iconic bakery specialties: Traditional Adelaide pie floaters in pea and ham soup alongside Hungarian goulash pies and house gravy.
  • Bakery outlet seconds: Freezer bins stock discounted factory-second pastries to take home straight from the source.

  • Goulash Pie

    Goulash pie, amazing, flavourful and touch spicy. Chips seasoned!! Finally a place that seasons chips properly. The gravy, thick and tasty and plenty of it! This is how pie, chips and gravy was served back in the day.

  • Mushroom Gravy

    Every time we visit South Australia from Melbourne we come here to the original villis just for their home made chips and the mushroom gravy. It is to die for.

  • Chocolate Mud Cake

    Ordered a 15inch chocolate mud cake for my son’s birthday and boy it did not disappoint. Biggest cake I’ve ever seen in my life and for the price, absolutely amazed! The cake was one of the nicest cakes I’ve ever eaten and I don’t typically like mud cake.

  • Orange and Almond Cake

    On finishing our meal, we had the orange and almond cake accompanied by a chai latte and a hot chocolate.

  • Hot Chocolate

    The hot chocolate served in a mug is delicious and great value for money. The orange and almond cake is the perfect accompaniment for the hot chocolate.

Before you head over

Practical advice for parking, 24/7 ordering, and dietary needs

  • Expect Busy Parking and Peak Crowds

    The cafe is open 24 hours every day, but off-street parking can fill quickly and the busy diner can get loud during peak dinner or late-night rushes. Staff sometimes assist with car park direction.

  • Order the Full Menu Anytime

    The full kitchen operates 24/7, meaning you can order breakfast combinations, hot chips with gravy, and fresh pies at any hour of the day or night.

  • Request Custom Adjustments

    Staff readily accommodate dietary restrictions and custom modifications, and are willing to check ingredients or tweak food combinations to suit your needs.
