You might not expect a bar this cinematic inside the powder-pink Coach Play Singapore Shophouse, but this fashionably retro spot isn’t just a pretty face, it also serves up a proper tipple. The vibey joint, warm with beautiful woodgrain and burgundy hues, is tailored for cocktails and conversation. The drinks list is small but mighty: order the Spicy Margarita Royale, a potent blend of tequila and mezcal, topped with a cheeky dab of caviar on white chocolate, or go straight for the excellent martini service, made your way table side.
Food-wise, think quintessential New York flavours but fancified. Like the Silver Service Hot Dog, with a Wagyu beef frank and house-made sauerkraut. The fried Sicilian olives are great for sharing, but if you really want to push the boat out, you can’t go wrong with the steak tartare covered with Oscietra caviar and jumbo lump crab meat. Oh, and the cassettes lining the walls aren’t just aesthetic, they’re fully functional, so pick one to soundtrack your night.
