Bar

Side Door

Bannie Kang, Bartenders' Bartender of 2021, and her chef husband Tryson Quek run a café-bright, 40-seat room on Neil Road. Book the counter and let Kang choose.

  • Where: Tanjong Pagar
  • Price: S$30–60
Bar

Cat Bite Club

Find the neon cat at Monument Coffee, push through the grey curtain and you're at a shelf of 200-plus agave bottles. Start with the margarita; the milk punch helps the cats.

  • Where: Tanjong Pagar
  • Price: S$30–60
Bar

Skai Bar

Seventy floors above the Padang, with the Civic District laid out below and a menu of 12 horoscope cocktails. Order your sign, or your date's, and compare.

  • Where: Civic District
  • Price: S$30–60
Bar

Nova

Singapore's highest rooftop bar, 63 floors above Raffles Place under a glowing steel star, with tom yum fries to soak up the altitude. Clear nights only.

  • Where: CBD
  • Price: Under S$30
Japanese

Shoukouwa

Eight seats at a hinoki counter, fish from Toyosu daily and two Michelin stars held since 2016. Singapore's most serious sushi counter, and priced for the occasion.

  • Where: Marina Bay
  • Price: S$60 and above
Modern Singaporean

Milli

LG Han of Labyrinth cooks, Vijay Mudaliar of Native pours, and the Padang sits below the terrace. Order the chilli crab ice cream; leave the Level 5 Lounge to the boyband fans.

  • Where: Civic District
  • Price: S$30–60
Californian / modern American

Spago by Wolfgang Puck

Wolfgang Puck's California kitchen on Level 57 of Marina Bay Sands, with Singapore riffs on the plate: a sea bream laksa and a kaya toast that has met foie gras. Ask for a skyline seat.

  • Where: Marina Bay
  • Price: S$60 and above
Afternoon tea

The Grand Lobby, Raffles Singapore

Tea between Raffles' original Victorian pillars, with JING loose-leaf and a no-sandals dress code. Classic rather than clever: book it for the occasion and the room, not the scones.

  • Where: Civic District
  • Price: S$60 and above
Modern Asian

Tanica

Fysh and its disco brunch are gone. The EDITION’s leafy dining room now cooks on a wok and a charcoal grill; the sets are the sensible way in.

  • Where: Orchard
  • Price: S$60 and above

Date ideas by mood

Guide

Dates with something to talk about

The easiest date is one that arrives with its own subject. Choose something to look at or do first, then a table where the conversation can carry on.
