About Ambra Spirits Distillery

Ambra Spirits Distillery is a family-run Italian distillery and bar on Phillips Street in Thebarton, making limoncello, liqueurs and gin with South Australian lemons. The bar pours spritzes and cocktails built on its own spirits, and the kitchen turns out Napoli-style pizza and pasta. Functions can use one area or the whole building. The distillery function room sits among the stills with a bar of its own and holds 60 seated or 80 standing, while the front bar and dining area takes 40 seated or 60 standing. Outdoor terraces beside the bar seat 50 or hold 60 on their feet. Exclusive hire of every indoor and outdoor space suits groups of 100 or more, with a minimum spend applying, and the venue has ramp access and an accessible toilet. Group dining for 30 or more runs from a two-course set menu at $59 per person to a three-course sharing menu at $79, a four-course feast at $119 and a chef-led menu at $149. A grazing board spread of cured meats, cheese and fruit is $49 per person for 40 or more. Drinks packages cover beer, wine, spirits and soft drinks for two hours at $48 per person, a deluxe version with Ambra spritzes and two cocktails at $95, or 90 minutes of jugged spritz cocktails at $69.
