Merrymaker Rooftop Bar

Perched atop Hotel Indigo Adelaide Markets, Merrymaker Rooftop Bar stakes a bold claim: Adelaide’s tallest rooftop bar. From Market Street, you ascend to a terrace that opens out over the city and hills, bathed in light or city glow depending on the hour. The concept blends relaxed rooftop lounge energy with refined food and drink. The menu leans heavily on South Australian produce — fresh seafood (oysters, raw fish), charcuterie, pizzas, tapas, and more creative small plates. On the drink side, you'll find a curated cocktail list, craft beers, and a wine program that highlights Barossa Valley and other local wine regions. Merrymaker is also known for seasonal events — for example, Rooftop Raclette Sessions (cheese & indulgence nights) held on select weekends. Their space is not huge — their listed capacity is about 86 guests. Because of that, reservations are highly recommended, particularly for prime times. On calmer days, the atmosphere is ideal for a relaxed sundowner. On weekends or event evenings, the terrace fills, ambient music plays, life hums a little more — yet it retains a sense of casual elegance. Patrons mention cocktails like the Lychee Martini being highlights, and that while prices are premium, they are acceptable given the views and setting. In sum: Merrymaker offers a compelling rooftop experience — cityscape, local flavour, seasonal touches, and a bar that balances lounge relaxation and rooftop energy.
