Flutes at the Fort
Set in a 1908 bungalow, Flutes ticks all the boxes for a romantic setting. There’s a veranda that provides a city skyline view, but far away enough not to intrude on the serene atmosphere. Meanwhile, the surrounding lush greenery of the historic Fort Canning ramps up the charm. With over 200 wines on the menu and an extra pronto top-up service, you won’t want to leave this place.
Wild Oats
These guys have truly mastered the art of lounging. Their venue is a colonial mansion with a retro twist; you’ll find classic black leather armchairs contrasting with the rattan chairs that litter the sprawling garden, all set to a perfect soundtrack of laidback house grooves. The cocktail selection features a spin on the usual classics, such as the popular Emily Royale, a champagne cocktail made with strawberry puree & crème de casis. As their motto goes, “we distrust camels or anyone who can go for a week without a drink.”
Hacienda
A bar where the musical landscape is as pleasing as the picturesque charm, Hacienda makes full use of its casual alfresco setting. The combination of manicured gardens and fresh fruit juice cocktails are the perfect antidote to the jaded post-work commute, and the selection of weekend guest DJs have become deservedly popular. The abundant tea-lights provide a cute romantic touch too.
