Barbary Coast: Cheers to the good ol’ days
Barbary Coast founders Michael Callahan and Celia Schoonraad understand how mundane it is to grab a couple of after-work drinks at the same place with the same atmosphere day after day. That’s why they built Barbary Coast Ballroom, a parlour-style bar filled with vintage furniture and opulent chandeliers to give you a special spot to unwind.
Located at Boat Quay, above their first bar Deadfall, it serves unique cocktails that spotlight a myriad of flavours – a bitter Three Graces, a sweet Fernet Hunter and a tangy Tommy Tomate (above) – other than the usual draft beers and wines. While you’re there, be sure to order the Cheese & Charcuterie and Oysters Rockfella. They’re a tasty way to line your gut before you knock back a few.

One version, the Independence Sling, is a Campari filled with herbaceous notes to represent the country’s journey towards sovereignty.
The theme of home extends into the restaurant’s food menu. It includes Kambing Bakar (above), a frenched rack of lamb marinated in herbs and pandan leaves, and Hey Mee, Hokkien noodles packed with lobsters and pork cracklings. Delicious and authentic, they successfully capture the essense of local cuisine that will always have a room in our hearts.
