Drinking has never been so fun.īitters & Love: 118 Telok Ayer Street, Singapore 068587 | Tel: 6438 1836 | Website The result? Delicious and unusual flavour combinations presented with flair. First choose a spirit from the extensive menu that contains the usual suspects as well as some lesser known brands – Geranium Gin anyone? Next, add your favourite flavour, for example sweet, sour, refreshing or, for the very brave, ‘surprise me’. For the slightly more daring a bespoke drink is the way to go. For the less adventurous a set cocktail list is available to peruse. Once inside picking a drink is easy and fun. A black curtain covers the window, whilst the only clue there is something exciting going on that you don’t yet know about is a discreet ‘peek here’ sign beneath a reverse viewfinder on the door. Bitters & Loveįrom the outside Bitters & Love looks like nothing more than a rundown shophouse. The Library: 47 Keong Saik Road, Singapore 089151 | Tel: 6221 8338 | Facebook The bartenders are knowledgable and rustle up unique drinks served in a quirky fashion – cocktail in a mini bathtub anyone?

#HIDDEN BAR SINGAPORE PASSWORD#
To gain entry to the bar itself you must reveal the ever changing password – which you can find on The Study’s Facebook page – or tell a cheeseball joke if you can’t be bothered to look it up (little known trick).
In it’s current guise, you may mistake this watering hole for a sophisticated whisky shop, in it’s previous life it has also been kitted out as a library (quelle surprise) and more recently a tailors studio. OK, we know The Libary is not a new kid on the block, but a speakeasy list without it is akin to serving chicken rice without rice. Opening Hours: Tuesday – Saturday: 6pm until late 2. Operation Dagger: 7 Ann Siang Hill, Singapore 069791| Tel:? | Website My only complaint? The house cocktails are so good, I wish they’d change the menu up and invent some more- You must try the salted-egg based cocktail, The Egg ($25). Serving your usual alcoholic stalwarts alongside some original and quite delicious house inventions, this place will do serious damage to your liver if you’re not careful.īe warned, it can get busy so be prepared for standing room only. A cool, concrete enclave reminiscent of a medical pharmacist greets you upon arrival. Once inside, a short walk down an industrial-esque staircase will lead you into the heart of Operation Dagger. Given away only by strange markings surrounding a non-descript door, unless you know Operation Dagger is there you’d walk straight past in complete oblivion to the fun that is happening directly beneath your feet. Tucked away underground on Ann Siang Hill, blink and you’ll miss it. So without further ado, here’s our definitive list to the best speakeasy bars in Singapore. However, I’m a sucker for a hidden bar that’s just so hard to find. Within no time, liquor joints, or ‘speakeasys’ (so called as patrons tended to talk in hushed tones to avoid detection) were popping up faster than I can down a shot of tequila, often disguised as something completely different so as not to alert the police.įast forward to today and luckily we are now allowed to buy and consume our poison of choice with relative ease. The law wasn’t going to stop the people from partaking in their favourite tipple however and as the old adage goes, where there’s a will there’s a way. Speakeasy bars are the latest buzzword in Singapore’s cocktail scene, but how did they come about? Rewind 100 years and America was about to enter a time of prohibition whereby producing, selling and marketing alcohol became illegal.
