The Elephant Room
Cocktails built from Little India – a spice corner to smell, tequila with flower crab – and a lamb hotdog in a garlic ghee bun. No.58 on Asia’s 50 Best Bars’ extended list in 2026.

- Price: S$30–60
Side Door

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
Mr. Stork
Around ten teepee huts in a rooftop garden on Level 39 of the Andaz, with arrack cocktails and two house beers. The most relaxed sundowner in Bugis.

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.

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.

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.

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
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
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
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.
