"2KW Bar and Restaurant is a rooftop bar and multi-faceted venue offering plenty of outdoor areas to enjoy one of the greatest views of the River Torrens precinct and its landmark buildings. The terrace is set with well-manicured greenery, lounges and booths that can seat 2-15 people. The terrace Bar offers an extensive selection of local wines and craft brews, as well as a seasonal cocktail list using native ingredients."

"Perched on the rooftop of a King William Street office building, 2KW is a hot ticket for knock off drinks and day-time beers with its idyllic north-facing views over North Terrace, North Adelaide and Adelaide Oval. It has become renowned for its up-market status with a high-end restaurant to match. Staff show a genuine passion for their service and will go above and beyond to make your experience extra special."

They already have a great selection of cocktails, but just in case if you are not satisfied with what is offered, you can ask the bartenders to create something new for you!"
