Compass Rose Bar, Tel +(65) 338-8585
Westin Stanford Hotel, 2 Stanford Road
Happy Hour 5:30-8:30pm
  This is a big favorite of the financial community. The best view perhaps in all of Asia, as it is on the 70th floor. You can even see Malaysia from here. The perfect place to try and impress a client or boss traveling for a visit. Never a mistake but also never cheap. A great after work place to start an evening.

Bar and Billiards Room, Tel +(65) 331-1746
Raffles Hotel, 1 Beach Road
Happy Hour 6-8pm
  The much better choice than the long bar upstairs. The billiards are expensive but you have to order at least one Singapore Sling, where it was invented in 1915. Great for groups on weekends and afternoons. Not a late night place but is great on the patio during sunset. Great for meeting clients and bosses from home office.

Music is a wild eclectic mix
  The is best known as an expat bankers bar needing a drink straight after a long day making a killing in the market.

Popular with serious drinkers blowing P&L.

Music is Jazz pure and simple
  Great live jazz bar featuring Leontine Dupree, with a stylish upmarket atmosphere. You can have a quiet drink and really talk. Nice window seating too, a great date place. Prices are average to high, but better early on during happy hour. Still a financial favorite despite its heritage as Nick Leeson`s other home.

Friendly staff and cool & funky music. Good food service menus with a very authentic foreign atmosphere. Very popular on weekends after 9pm.
