The Bibliotheca Bar And Book Exchange

Stopped by on the way through and was immediately impressed. Ra immediately created a comfortable atmosphere to enjoy a drink. His recommendations and the cocktails were elite. I can't wait to be a regularly.

This place is just so great!
Our crew rocked up at like 22:00 on a Tuesday for some late night celebratory drinks and the bartender was such a great guy and made our celebration even more enjoyable! He remade my spritz bc he wasn't happy with it, no extra charge - every drink was yummy as *and* made with heart and soul

And major props to bartender man for concocting my girlfriend's Creamy Blueberry Club too

It was a wonderful night made even more wonderful coming to Bibliotheca

Great cocktails and a cosy relaxed vibe. The Silmaril was fantastic, but avoid the Memoirs of a Geisha - was straight up sesame oil. 🤢 Menu could do with spell-check too.

Probably the best cocktail bar I visited during my trip to ADL. This 'library theme' design bar has a really nice ambience along with some awesome cocktails. I ended up trying quite a few drinks from their "Literature, Stirred & Shaken" part of the menu which had some very interesting drinks based on some famous literary references. My favourites were the Ice & Fire (which has a very nice preparation style too), the Honey Pot, and the Silmaril.

Take a counter seat to see some interesting and 'fiery' cocktail preparation techniques.

All in all, this cocktail bar is a must visit if you're in Adelaide.

One of the coolest bars in Adelaide. An amazing selection of whisky and some absolutely incredible book themed cocktails. The most incredible bar staff. Definitely a must visit!
