Pink Moon Saloon

Overview

The number of Adelaide bars hidden down laneways, in basements and up hard-to-find staircases rivals even Melbourne's busiest inner city streets. We suggest you start at Pink Moon Saloon, a narrow A-frame bar, which has picked up a neat collection of gongs for its drinks and design.

If you're after a cocktail, there's a bunch to choose from, including a peach iced tea ($14), lavender fizz ($18), mojito ($19), coffee-infused negroni ($19), gimlet ($19) and espresso martini ($20). For wine, expect an Australian-focused list of drops, ranging from sparkling and pét-nat to white, rosé, orange and red, as well as a bunch of Aussie brews on tap and in tins. Should you get peckish, Pink Moon has a (very) concise snack menu — think Sicilian olives ($7), anchovies with sourdough ($12), a mixed charcuterie plate ($18) and a weekly hard and soft cheese (both $14).
