Truly one of a kind, this grandiose bar with a high, ornate ceiling is mesmerizing—and one of the most buzzed-about lounges in Singapore. It holds more than 1,000 gins and 250 Champagnes, including a rare bubbly that was served on the Titanic (yes, the actual Titanic). Helmed by head bartender Jesse Vida, the tipples are inspired by the 1930s with a strong focus on (you guessed it) gin and Champagne. For a splurge, any cocktail can be made with your Champagne of choice.

This casual cocktail and seafood bar comes from the team behind Jigger & Pony (another Chinatown hot spot), so you already know it's good. Their seasonal cocktail menu does a good job of highlighting Southeast Asian ingredients such as starfruit. Try the happy hour oysters along with their namesake cocktail, the Gibson, which incorporates a homemade Ginjo sake vermouth.

Set in a 1910 townhouse noted for its Straits-Chinese architecture, this bustling pub attracts expats and locals alike and serves some 60 beers on tap or in bottles (they're "ice cold" from being in vast ice tanks). At the back of the bar, you can play darts; upstairs, you can play pool and arcade games. If you get peckish, the range of international bar snacks includes hot dogs, chicken wings, and mini-burgers.

Yet another of the city's establishments to make the list of the "World's 50 Best Bars," Jigger & Pony serves up exceptional classic cocktails such as negronis, martinis, and Old Fashioneds, as well as signature cocktails with a local twist (think gin fizz with orange flower bubbles or whiskey sour with a touch of yuzu marmalade). Located in the Amara hotel, the dimly lit space is cozy and inviting.

This tiny six-seater bar is very easy to miss, tucked away as it is at the back of Isetan's supermarket near the alcohol section. It's almost always busy, so you usually have to wait for a seat. Once you've settled in, though, you can enjoy premium sake by the glass or bottle as the knowledgeable bartender talks you through the tasting notes. If you've been here for a while, and it's quiet, the staff will sometimes allow you to buy a bottle of sake from the supermarket to drink at the bar instead.

Recalling the golden age of New York, with a menu that takes you on a journey of cocktail history, this dark and sultry cocktail bar in the Regent Hotel offers more than 150 whiskeys. It's also the first in the world to craft Negronis with ingredients that have been solera-aged—and right in the hotel’s own 100-barrel rickhouse. No wonder this has been named one of the top five bars in the world.

For a night you will (or likely, won’t) remember, party at this glittering club kid hotspot with Vegas vibes. Also Singapore’s largest nightclub, it goes big with eight private dance pods suspended 20 meters in the air as well as a massive ferris wheel you can board for a spin.

At this top-ranked bar, the goal is to connect with Singapore through local flavors. Many of the cocktails are made using ingredients foraged from nearby areas and local alcohol like jackfruit rum.

To get to the top level of this bar on the 71st and 72nd floors of the Stamford, you'll need advance reservations; the striking views there are enhanced by the way the floors are at a 20-degree slant. There are Asian food options in the grill section, as well as shellfish and sushi stations. The vibrant decor features strong colors and unusual designer furnishings. A DJ pushes up the beat with disco music on the weekend.

Pretty red lanterns hang above you at this chic cocktail bar inside a restored two-story Paranakan terraced house. It reflects a design style of the early-20th-century Straits-Chinese shophouses. There are a variety of enticing cocktails on offer plus an impressive selection of spirits, shooters, beers, and mocktails. You can listen to live blues and jazz while shooting some pool; sample the bar snacks, which include pizza and chicken wings; or just sit back and enjoy the ambience.

Hailing from the sandy shores of Bali, this bar with a cult following brings a beach-chic aesthetic to the art deco heritage building it occupies. Although it has an Asian burger restaurant and quirky speakeasy-style bar, head for the rooftop bar—a place of fairy lights, bright murals, lush greenery, lovely night views over the city, and tropical cocktails that will have you believing you're really in Bali.

This five-floor film, food, and bar complex is part of a cluster of trendy shophouse bars and restaurants. A lounge area takes up the basement and first floor, but the biggest draw is on the third floor, where there's a small, funky theater with its own bar. Classic films from around the world are shown, and menus are created to match the theme. (The film schedule is online, and reservations can be made via email or phone.) The rooftop bar attracts a cool after-work crowd.

Occupying two hawker stalls on Level 2 of the Chinatown Complex Food Centre, this tiny bar is the definition of "hidden gem." It would be easy to mistake it as just one of the hundreds of food vendors that occupy the center if it weren't for the number of people drinking its excellent craft drafts at the tables that surround it. One stall is dedicated to international brews, the other to local ones; the staff will happily talk you through the tasting notes of each beer.

Lounge in the sun among the palms or play outdoor games at this trendy beach-side hangout. The restaurant-bar has daybeds (prior reservations can be made) and lounge chairs, a swimming pool, and often DJs on deck. The weekend crowd is typically young professionals looking to let loose over a game of beach volleyball or beer pong. This stretch of sand, shaped like a numeral three from above, is also popular with dog owners and their water-trained pooches. To avoid the crowds; come on a weekday, and linger after sunset, which is especially pretty here.

Opened in 2019, this Hemingway-inspired bar is an outpost of Hong Kong's Old Man bar, which was deemed "Best Bar in Asia" by the World's 50 Best Bars. The cocktails live up to the hype, and there's even a small "laboratory" where bartenders create drinks such as The Snows of Kilimanjaro made with marshmallow gin, citrus, lacto-fermented raspberries, and gruyere cheese.

This outstanding mixology bar doubles as an award-winning restaurant where the cocktails are inspired by the food. There are two ways to experience it: the bar, which requires no reservations, or the restaurant, which requires a reservation. Get a dinner reservation if you can so you can try the innovative cocktails with their excellent modern cooking.

This bar beside Emerald Hill has been rocking for 15 years. It has a nice outside seating area—great for people-watching—and a cozy interior where live bands play every evening. The artists tend to be up-and-coming, so the music can sometimes be hit or miss, but it's a good place for a few drinks and dancing. It tends to be quite noisy, so don't come if you're looking for a quiet conversation.

Tucked between two heritage Peranakan shophouses on Emerald Hill, this low-key cocktail bar has atmospheric lanterns hanging from its ceiling and gold and copper decorations dotting its bar. The excellent daily happy hour (5 pm to 10 pm) makes it a popular after-work haunt with locals. Prices are very reasonable given the Orchard Road locale. On Wednesday, women can enjoy free-flowing bubbly from 7 pm to 9 pm during the Singaporean tradition of Ladies Night.

One of the first mixology bars in Singapore, this hole-in-the-wall still turns out some of the more surprising concoctions on the island. While there’s no formal menu—a bespoke cocktail is created based on your flavor profile—you can rest assured that your drink will be to your liking. Reservations are highly recommended as it is a small space.
