Best bars for punchbowls and sharing cocktails in Singapore

Everyone loves a communal punch bowl or wacky vessels to share cocktails. Here are some of the best places to get them in Singapore.

28 Hong Kong Street

The boys here have thought up of everything: the huge crystal bowl of Plan B ($230) is filled with reposado tequila, citrus, oolong, lemon berry meritage tea and is topped off with bubbly. It serves 20, so smaller groups should proceed with caution!

Chicken Up

Aside from the addictive Korean fried chicken, we love the soju punch ($30) served in a bowl of carved out of watermelon and topped with soju and fresh juice. Proceed with caution.

Ding Dong

The new cocktail menu has a few creations that are great to share. The Stamford Tea Party ($65) serves four and you have two choices: a gin-based citrusy cocktail or a cognac-driven peach creation.

East 8 New York Fusion Tapas + Bar

This fusion Asian New York-style tapas bar serves a rendition of the classic watermelon soju ($68). Served in a watermelon bowl, it’s got soju, watermelon juice and citrus.

Jigger & Pony

The raucous Japanese-inspired bar has seven different punchbowls, so we’re spoilt for choice here. There are classic cocktails like the rum-based Zombie, but we go straight for the potent Chatham Artillery with cognac, bourbon and dark rum that’s topped off with bubbly. If something refreshing is what you’re craving, opt for the tropical Pisco Punch (all $220).

L’Aiglon

The team have turned a Ketel One vodka cocktail challenge into a mainstay sharing cocktail. The Asian Sensation ($90) is served in a steaming dry ice copper kettle and Chinese tea cups. It’s got elderflower liqueur and cinnamon syrup, so just think of it like a tea party.

The Library

This infamous “punchbowl” needs no introduction. After all, it’s one of the definitive cocktails of the speakeasy bar. Served in a miniature bath tub, complete with a rubber duckie, Hot Tub Thyme Machine ($90) is quirky, with rum, earl grey and absinthe, and goes down easily. 

Maison Ikkoku

Ethan Leslie Leong is no stranger to cocktail decadence. The punchbowl here is deceptively named Champagne Bowl ($298). There’s no Champagne. Instead, it’s got berries, fruit liqueurs, gin, vodka and white rum on top of Italian sparkling wine. 

Mars Bar

The locally-inspired cocktail bar has two punch bowls and cocktails to share. There’s a Cheng Tng punch with dried longan, pearl barley and sago that reinterprets everyone’s favorite hawker dessert, as well as the Ice Jelly (both $109)punch with rum, kwaifeh lychee, grapefruit and dark rum jelly.

One-Ninety by Javier de las Muelas

The famed Barcelona bartender collaborated with Ketel One vodka for a range of cocktails to share, served in the same copper kettle as at L’Aiglon. It serves four and there are a few options to choose from but we particularly like the Geisha Blossom ($69) with chamomile, Darjeeling tea and sake.
