The Hagen Arms
The Hagen Arms is one of South Australia’s oldest and most charming country pubs, established in 1848 in the Adelaide Hills town of Echunga. Lovingly restored and rich with heritage, the historic stone building offers a welcoming, rustic setting complete with open fireplaces, timber beams, and a front bar full of stories.
A true hidden gem, The Hagen Arms takes pride in showcasing seasonal, locally sourced food with a strong focus on regional producers and sustainable practices. Much of the menu features farm-grown produce from the property itself, including heritage-breed pigs raised for the kitchen. The result is a frequently changing menu that reflects the best of the Hills and beyond — honest, delicious food with a thoughtful, paddock-to-plate approach.
Local suppliers such as Little Acre Foods, Section28 Cheese, and Coorong Wild Seafood contribute to the carefully crafted dishes, which might include anything from a Mayura Station Wagyu burger to house-cured charcuterie, roasted pork, or wood-fired seasonal vegetables.
In addition to its standout menu, the pub offers a curated drinks list featuring Adelaide Hills wines, local craft beers, and classic cocktails. Whether dining by the fire in winter or enjoying the beer garden in summer, The Hagen Arms delivers an authentic Hills hospitality experience grounded in community, quality, and tradition.
