The better looking of the town's two pubs, the affable 1846 Angaston serves Barossa wines and pub standards (schnitzels, pasta, salt-and-pepper squid). Just try to ignore the Triumph of Silenus mural on the dining room wall ('Oh it's hideous!' says the barmaid). Wednesday is beer-and-burger night ($25). There's basic shared-bathroom pub accommodation upstairs (doubles/family rooms from $70/90).
