This is the reference page. Everything this guide can name for gaming in the valley is in the table below, with the address and the facilities each venue publishes about itself. There are five of them, they sit in three towns, and the list is short because every entry on it came from a venue's own website or a tourism body's listing rather than from a directory.
| Venue | Town | Address | What the venue lists |
|---|---|---|---|
| Angaston Hotel | Angaston | 59 Murray Street, Angaston SA 5353 | Dining, front bar, TAB, gaming machines, upstairs accommodation |
| Barossa Brauhaus Hotel | Angaston | 41 Murray Street, Angaston | Dining, bars, gaming, TAB, lotteries |
| Vine Inn Barossa | Nuriootpa | 14–22 Murray Street | Accommodation, dining, bar, gaming lounge |
| The Clubhouse / Tanunda Club | Tanunda | 45 MacDonnell Street | Dining, accommodation, gaming |
| Tanunda Hotel | Tanunda | Murray Street | Front bar, dining, TAB, gaming room |
One phone number is published in this guide: Angaston Hotel on 08 8564 2428. For the rest, take the number from the venue's own site rather than a listing — that is the one place the trading name, the address and the contact number are maintained together.
How to read the last column
The facilities column is a transcription, not an assessment. "Gaming", "gaming machines", "gaming lounge" and "gaming room" all mean the same thing for your purposes: the venue holds gaming machines. That is a real fact and it is the entire content of the phrase. It carries no information about how large the room is, how many cabinets are in it, which of them are switched on this week, what denominations they are set to, or whether the area is staffed on the night you had in mind.
Two columns that do not exist here, and will not: machine counts and gaming-room hours. Not one of these five publishes either. We could produce a figure from somewhere and nobody would immediately notice, and that is precisely the reason not to. If you need a number, the state's gaming records held by Consumer and Business Services SA deal in licences, approvals and entitlements, which establish what a venue is permitted to run. An entitlement is an administrative quantity. It will not tell you what is on the floor tonight, and no register anywhere will.
Worth separating out too: TAB appears in three of these rows and is a different activity altogether — wagering on racing and sport, at a counter or a terminal, with its own equipment and sometimes its own hours. A venue can have a TAB and no machines, or machines and no TAB. The regional orientation page has the rest of the local vocabulary.
Three towns share one street name
Look down the address column again. Four of the five venues are on a street called Murray Street, and those streets are in three different towns. Angaston has one. So does Nuriootpa. So does Tanunda. They are unconnected roads with their own numbering, and the street name by itself is not an address in this valley — it is a coin toss between three towns.
What goes wrong in practice is mundane and completely avoidable. Someone types a venue type and "Murray Street" into a map app, accepts the first suggestion, and arrives ten or fifteen minutes away in a town they did not mean to visit, looking at a pub that is somebody else's local. The fix is to carry the town with the street every single time, and the number as well where we have published one. "59 Murray Street, Angaston SA 5353" cannot be mistaken for anywhere. "Murray Street" can be mistaken for two other places.
Note the gaps in our own column, too. Vine Inn Barossa's number range is published without a postcode here; Tanunda Hotel's street is published without a number at all. Those are the limits of what we can source, not an invitation to guess. If a precise drop-off matters — someone with limited mobility, a booked table, a group arriving in two cars — confirm the exact address with the venue, and do it in the same call where you ask about the room.
The two numbers in Angaston
Inside one town the same trap repeats at a smaller scale. Angaston has two hotels listing gaming on the same street, a couple of hundred metres apart: number 59 and number 41. They are separate businesses with separate owners, separate kitchens and separate front doors, and a search result that names only the town will blend them into a single venue that does not exist anywhere.
It is the most common local mistake by a distance, and it produces the specific failure of booking a table at one and turning up at the other. The Angaston Hotel page and the page covering both pubs keep the two apart properly. Whichever you are headed for, say the number out loud when you ring.
Towns that are not on this list, and why
This guide has deliberately not turned every town name in the region into a venue claim. The following places have pages here that name nothing, and that is a statement about the limits of our verification rather than proof that nothing exists in them.
- Greenock and Lyndoch — valley towns, west and south, with no venue we could confirm from a primary source.
- Kapunda — off the valley floor to the north-west, a separate trip rather than a stop along the way.
- Williamstown — the southern edge, where distance rankings mislead badly; see the Williamstown page.
- Eden Valley and Springton — up in the ranges behind Angaston, the first a cool-climate wine district, the second small enough that an absence is the expected answer.
- Mount Pleasant — over the rim in the eastern hills, far enough that the trip is a day rather than an evening.
- Seppeltsfield — an estate and a road, not a town, so there is no pub there to list in the first place.
Gawler, which comes up constantly in searches from this end of the region, is a city and council in its own right rather than a Barossa town, and is treated as its own destination on its own page.
What to settle before you drive anywhere
Three things, in one call, for whichever row of the table you have chosen. Is the gaming area open on your date, and until when — naming the day, because a Sunday here is not a Friday and a long weekend is neither. Is the entrance you will use step-free, and where does accessible parking sit relative to it. And if a meal is part of the evening, when does the kitchen stop, which is the question that most often turns a good night into a disappointing one. Booking a table does not reserve a machine, and booking a room does not reserve a parking space. The checklist page has the longer version for groups.
Street parking on Murray Street in Angaston is kerbside and governed by whatever the signs say on the day; no space count is published here and none will be invented. We have published no parking information at all for the other towns.

Provenance of this table
Angaston Hotel's address, phone number and facility list come from the hotel's own website, reviewed 1 October 2026. The Barossa Brauhaus Hotel entry comes from the South Australian Tourism Commission listing for that venue. The Nuriootpa and Tanunda rows come from this site's existing town pages, which draw on the venues' own published material. No machine count, entitlement figure or gaming-area timetable is published by any of the five, so none appears above. Licensing for all of them sits under the Gaming Machines Act 1992 with Consumer and Business Services SA. Not sourced and therefore not shown: phone numbers for four of the five venues, a postcode for the Nuriootpa and Tanunda addresses, a street number for Tanunda Hotel, and any venue at all in the towns listed further up.
