Writers Bar

#singaporetrip The decor of this place is tastefully done and dotted with books I would love to actually have in my own library. So apt for a Bar named Writer's Bar, and commemorating Raffles Hotel’s status as a muse for literary greats like Ernest Hemingway and Rudyard Kipling. It's a beautiful and intimate space for a catch up with a friend or a date. As always with all F&B establishments at the Raffles Hotel, the service is first class. My friend and I felt very looked after by the staff, and I just wanted to point out that we are two Singaporean ladies, because I read another review saying Writers Bar discriminates against locals. I can't speak for them because I don't know the whole story, but this was not the experience my local friend and I had at all. We received a very warm welcome on arrival, and it was consistently great service we encountered throughout our whole stay at Writer's Bar even though we only ordered two drinks each. We made reservations in advance for a Friday evening, so make sure you do that since the bar is not that big. Drinks were amazing, and the staff were definitely very well trained in their craft, and took their time to explain the drinks you've ordered as well as make thoughtful recommendations based on your preferences. They were not pushy, and were also very generous with topping up our complimentary snacks. We ordered some bar snacks because we felt peckish, and they were all pretty tasty. We will be back soon!
