Speakeasies in Singapore
Five speakeasies in Singapore, including one on The World's 50 Best Bars and four on Asia's 50 Best.
50 BESTSpeakeasy28 Hong Kong Street
Singapore's best-known cocktail speakeasy and one of Asia's most-awarded bars: since 2014, an unmarked 1960s shophouse façade has hidden a room inspired by the New York drinking scene of the early 2000s, prospering on word of mouth while Singapore blossomed into a world-class cocktail city around it. The current 'Now & Then' menu pairs classics with modern creations built around seven fundamental techniques, over American comfort food and a hip-hop soundtrack. It was No. 21 on Asia's 50 Best Bars 2021 and No. 59 on The World's 50 Best Bars 51-100 list in 2023.

ASIA'S 50 BESTSpeakeasyThe Other Room
The Other Room is a speakeasy-style bar hidden behind black velvet drapes on the ground floor of the Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel on Orchard Road. It opened in 2016 with Dario Knox as master bartender, in a Prohibition-era room. Its signature is cask finishing: the team finishes more than 100 spirits in house, in barrels that once held wine, sherry or port, and uses them in timeless classics and bolder house creations. The back bar adds whiskies from around the world and agave spirits, and tapas such as beetroot hummus and ribeye are served through the night. Renowned guest bartenders visit often. It made Asia's 50 Best Bars three times, highest at No. 35 in 2017, and was on the 51-100 list in 2021.

Players Table
Players Table is a 21-seat cocktail room reached through WitBier, a beer bar on Aliwal Street, past the pool table and through an unmarked black door. It opened in April 2026, set up by bartender Jasper Tan, formerly of Cin Cin and MOGA, with a partner from the same MOGA team. The menu of twelve signatures builds each drink around two named ingredients, such as pandan and coconut, sencha and yuzu or espresso and Guinness, and a dealer's choice changes weekly.
