Bar Bambi

  • Bar
  • Restaurant

Designed for both a millennial and mature market, Bar Bambi is an LA and European-inspired lounge that combines live music, Italian share plates and an extensive margarita, negroni and spritz list.

Bar Bambi is a blend between a lounge and a bar, where guests can come for a drink and a bite to eat, while being entertained under one roof. The changing line-up of entertainment has been carefully curated by the in-the-know owners – whether that's a piano singer, a live performance on the venue’s mini stage or a mix of DJs, and it transforms the space from dinner to a party extending late into the night.

The menu is crafted of classic gems, from traditional antipasti dishes to more inventive nibbles such as a carbonara toastie. With fan-favourite mains of vodka pasta and paccheri beef ragu, the menu has been designed for feasting and sharing.
