Kooky like bar. I loved my mocktail. My friends weren't as keen on their cocktails. Great looking bar with comfy seats, lots of books and book themed cocktails.

Located right in Adelaide, next to Rundall Mall, off Hinley Street. We were just wandering on Hindley Street, and decided to explore some of the lanes off it. The bar looks very welcoming and had some books on display at the front as more as you go in, in front of the bar. We came for drinks, so did not explore the book section, he he. Maybe next time. We sat outside on the tables provided. Service wasn't great as we waited for a while and finally went inside and helped ourselves to the menu and drinks list. The drinks list had wine, gin, spirits and cocktails. It is not only extensive but also had very interesting names. Named after books, movies, sayings or quotes, the list had drinks such as Elementary, Memoirs of a Geisha, Moloko, So Long and Thanks for all the Fish, Lolita, Honeypot, Don Quixote, 1984, Metro 2023 and more. The cocktails were refreshing. The place seems to cater for the more mature audience as everyone there were middle-aged or more . The location is good for a quiet drink as it does not have the noise or walkabout foot traffic of Hindley Street and the mall. Other than the hiccup with service, it is a nice place for a quiet drink.
