Proof Bar

“Casual, cosy spot, helpful staff and delicious cocktails.”

Janet’s Journey★★★★★

Tucked away down a quiet laneway, Proof Bar is one of those Adelaide gems that’s easy to miss but well worth finding. The venue has a timeless, old-world charm with rustic touches, dim lighting, and a cozy atmosphere that feels instantly welcoming. Spread across both upstairs and downstairs spaces, there’s a mix of bar stools, intimate booths, and comfortable couches perfect for settling in with a drink. The music is soulful, jazz and laid-back lounge tunes, adding to the relaxed, sophisticated vibe without ever overpowering conversation. The friendly, personable staff are a standout, always

I still dream of the cocktails I drank on this rooftop bar... We walked in spontaneously as we were just looking for a nice bar and we saw the rooftop bar. The vibes inside are so good. The gloomy interieur with walls filled with wine and marble table tops just adds to it. We ordered at the bar first and went upstairs to enjoy our first cocktails. They do provide table service but her colleague was on break, so for the second drink they did come up to us and take our order. The rooftop bar truly is a vibe. Even if it was not too busy when we went (on a Wednesday night) it was still vibrant

Wonderful cocktails and wine - first class. Intimate space oozing with character. A bit hipster with old world charm

My friends and I decided to celebrate our 30th at Proof Bar, and we couldn’t be happier! Everything was so easy and smooth: from booking the venue, to how relaxed they were about us bringing our own cake and balloons, to making sure we had everything we needed on the night of the event. Massive shoutout to Leila, who took care of us from the very beginning, and to the rest of the staff (especially the guy and girl working upstairs on Saturday night and putting up with us). You guys absolutely rock!!!!!
