Adelaide Function Venues We Love for Every Celebration

From milestone birthdays to christenings, engagements and everything in between, choosing the right venue can set the tone for your entire event. At Kiki & Poppi, we’ve been lucky to style, celebrate, and experience a wide range of Adelaide’s best function spaces. Here are some of our favourites that never disappoint.

The Lion Hotel – Versatile & Timeless

Looking for a casual brunch with 20 of your nearest and dearest? Or perhaps a 40th birthday that needs a little extra flair? The Lion, just on the outskirts of the CBD, ticks all the boxes.

Easy parking, tasty food, and a budget-friendly menu.
Accommodating staff who let us decorate as needed.
Function spaces for every occasion:
- The Cellars for a moody, intimate vibe.
- The Jerningham Room for larger gatherings.
- Upstairs balcony rooms for stylish dinner parties.

It’s been a longstanding Adelaide favourite for good reason.

Jarmer’s Kitchen – Foodie Heaven in Bowden

When we’re hosting events for 60 – 110 guests, Jarmer’s is always top of the list.

Their private function room is perfect for birthdays, christenings, engagements, and even corporate functions.
The food is next-level (our personal pick: the porcini gnocchi).
Special shoutout to their Events Manager, Cynthia, who always goes above and beyond to make every event seamless.

Chicco Palms – Fun & Family-Friendly

West of the CBD, Chicco Palms is an absolute crowd favourite.

Famous for their porchetta and pizza that guests rave about.
A fenced, undercover outdoor space – ideal for daytime christenings and kids’ activities.
The option to extend into the driveway for a jumping castle makes it one of the most versatile family-friendly venues we know.

Pompom – Modern & Cool

One of our newest recommendations, Pompom is perfect for those who love a warehouse vibe.

Modern interiors and a delicious function menu.
As the sun sets, the roller doors open for an effortlessly cool atmosphere.
Perfect for milestone birthdays and stylish engagement parties.

Mylkbar – A Hidden Gem on Waymouth

Don’t be fooled by the coffee-bar frontage – Mylkbar hides a stunning private function loft at the back.

Space to seat up to 100 guests.
Cool and relaxed for a 21st, but equally adaptable for sit-down dinners and engagements.
We love how deceptively versatile this venue is.

Coccobello – Italian Dining at Its Best

For couples and families who love Italian food, Coccobello delivers.

Two function spaces that suit intimate gatherings under 40 or large celebrations of 100+.
A courtyard option for extra atmosphere.
Their authentic Italian menu is always a crowd-pleaser.

Sneaky’s – Worth the Drive

Just out in Angle Vale, next to Virgara Wines, Sneaky’s is well worth the trip.

Gorgeous grounds that are picture-perfect.
Plentiful Italian food and reliable service.
A beautiful option to host your ceremony, reception and everything in-between

Every celebration deserves a venue that feels just right. Whether you’re planning an intimate christening, a milestone birthday, or an engagement party to remember, these Adelaide venues are tried-and-true favourites that we’d recommend in a heartbeat.
