Two food delivery drivers have been attacked in separate incidents in Adelaide, including one who was hit in the head with a baseball bat.

Police were first called to Glengowrie, at the intersection of Oaklands and Diagonal roads, about 10:45pm after receiving reports that a man had been attacked and robbed on his way out of an On The Run service station.

The service station includes a Subway outlet and the delivery driver suffered an injury to his lip after being punched in the face.

Two boys, aged 14 and 15, then allegedly stole his delivery bag, and were later found in Somerton Park.

The teenagers, from Somerton Park and Warradale, were arrested and charged with aggravated robbery, and will appear in the Christies Beach Youth Court in September.

Meanwhile, police are searching for three young men who allegedly attacked another delivery driver at Seaton about 3:40am.

The victim was hit in the head with a baseball bat after being approached by the men as he stood outside his car.

Police said the attackers pulled up in another car and that one demanded money, before the two others approached the victim.

The men allegedly attempted to steal the victim's mobile phone before driving off, and the victim was taken to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.

"Thankfully his injuries are not life threatening," police said.

Police have asked anyone with information to contact Crime Stoppers, on 1800 333 000.
