Overview
Hains & Co is a spirited bar with serious style, proudly flying the flag for Adelaide’s small bar scene since opening its doors on Gilbert Place. Nautically themed and lovingly detailed, the venue brings together a curated collection of gin, rum, craft cocktails, and cigars in a fun, inclusive environment that’s equally suited to cocktail aficionados and casual visitors.
The bar’s interior channels the feel of an old-world ship galley, with timber panelling, maritime touches, and back-lit bottles lining the bar like treasure. Outside, laneway seating invites open-air sipping, conversation, and people-watching late into the night.
The drinks menu is focused and expertly executed. Gin and rum take centre stage, with an expansive selection sourced from around the world. Bartenders are knowledgeable and enthusiastic, ready to walk you through flavour profiles or mix up something bespoke based on your taste. Signature cocktails, seasonal specials, and classic pours sit comfortably alongside premium neat spirits, while beer, wine, and non-alcoholic options round out the menu.
One of the venue’s standout features is its cigar selection, with a range of hand-rolled cigars available for purchase and enjoyment in the outdoor area — making it one of the few venues in Adelaide that still caters to this tradition.
With its warm service, top-shelf product, and easygoing charm, Hains & Co has become a local favourite and a must-visit for anyone exploring Adelaide’s laneway bar scene. Whether you're kicking off the night or winding it down, this is a port worth anchoring at.
