Hopscotch (Gillman Barracks)

Attentive & friendly staff (mostly youngsters), good quality food altho portion size is on the smaller end for its pricing. Great place to chill. Live music is available on Fri & Sat at 7pm. Had the pasta with coconut lime sauce to share as I reckoned it might be too rich with our other orders of the inhouse chicken wings and the pork jowl. Free parking on weekends and after 5pm on weekdays.

Food is nice and also have indoor and outdoor dining area. The pasta are hand made so they taste good. Tried thier chicken wings and they are good too. Friendly crew and they have live band on fridays and saturdays

Decided to find a different dining place and happen to find this on Google Map. Ambience wise is great, outdoor seating, spacious, away from the busy street, great place to chill. Except for the Mashed Potato that comes with the burger, the rest of the food is average. We were surprised that the food doesn’t come with much surprises, probably too flat for us. Nevertheless, it’s still a great place to chill with friends.

Booked this place for weekday lunch. Their lunch menu was super delicious and super filling. Service was awesome as it was also our friend’s birthday and they gave us free shots. If you’re in the area do come around for some great food and service!

Enjoyed the mushroom pizza and the chicken bites. The pizza had a really fragrant and tasty truffle aroma, it was delicious. Vibe was lit and cozy, not too crowded in the afternoon. I enjoyed having conversations with my friends here. The staff were helpful and explained the inspiration behind each cocktail which we really enjoyed.

It's been years since my last visit, but this place still has the same wonderful vibe—and an even more impressive menu now. The pizza is outstanding, with a perfectly balanced crust (not too thin) and baked just right. We also loved the other dishes—the chargrilled panggang pork belly and the Pangium Beef Bourguignon were both incredible, with creative preparations that paired beautifully with their uniquely crafted cocktails. The service was fantastic—even on a busy Mother’s Day Sunday, the staff was attentive and full of enthusiasm. A truly great experience!

Just had the most amazing experience with Hopscotch SG60 specials! Every dish was absolutely delicious and perfect for celebrating Singapore's 60th. The cocktails and Crab Otah "Nasi Lemak" were standouts, but the Milo Dino Breakfast Parfait was super delicious too! 😋 The service was excellent, making our Sunday truly wonderful.

Our first visit, after a pretty tiring session at Google. Conveniently located across the road! Great that this place is a hidden gem! My fave with the fusion chicken rice!!!

A great bar and restaurant with excellent drinking food and some very creative cocktails. It's the closest nice place close to my work so I've been here a few frequent times. The food is a great fusion of Singaporean flavors with classic western dishes. Definitely try the chicken satay pizza which is super unique. You can never go wrong with one of their cocktails. Ask the servers for recommendations as well as the history behind the cocktails and their ingredients.

The drinks are lots of fun and the staff is friendly. So much fun! Sell worth the experience.

Well, damn. I've been away from the cocktail bar scene in Singapore for a bit, and I'm glad I've been reintroduced via Hopscotch Bar. I walked in on a Friday evening hoping to get some bar bites, but was told they were really just drinks. I noticed their special menu, and the Fire Roasted Old Fashioned caught my eye. My favourite gula melaka (palm sugar) was listed as an ingredient, and I was sold! The bartender took a while to make my drink, but it was worth it. There were a lot of steps that were needed to achieve the flavours that I experienced; it was smoky, sweet, and strong, all at the same time. It was also garnished with a charred, dehydrated pineapple slice. I'm very impressed with their recipes, and I love how there are a few fun names like "The Grape Gatsby" and "Nonya Crack" thrown in. Their website says they are "craft cocktails with a local twist", and I believe it. I hope I can get a seat the next time I visit!

Definitely out-of-this-world experience for creative cocktail drinks! The drinks are innovatively done with so much thought and background work. And we only knew it because Joshua, the bartender, described to us! So big tip: Ask Joshua to make you his concoction and get him to describe to you. The whole experience is not just the drink, it's the whole art and philosophy you get from Joshua. His drinks and his knowledge makes you want to go back again and again. If you enjoy drinks before, you are going to enjoy MORE at this Amazing hangout! Tip #2: they will be rolling out their new menu at the end of Jan 2016!

Cocktails Asianified in a kitchy way. Highlights - Interesting cocktail menu with local flavors. - Unique presentations with mine with a cookie and another lit on fire Midlights - Not much activity when we were there Lowlights - Bit hard to find within the building - Cocktail I came for that was written up in an article was no longer made: kaya flip with pandan An ok spot but only stayed for one and moved on to others

Hopscotch Bar markets itself a the go to place for "craft cocktails with a local twist." Boy were they right, I had a Fire Roasted Old Fashioned mixed with gula melaka (palm) and was simply out of this world! The sweetness of the palm sugar coupled with the strong yet smooth bourbon was heavenly. To top it off was a charred dehydrated pineapple slice, which gave the drink a charred/smokey finish. The other drink I tried was the Smokin' Pisang - banana infused bourbon, french fig cordial, sandalwood smoke. As you can tell, I'm a huge bourbon guy. The thought of Mixing banana with bourbon was just too difficult to pass up. I'm glad I didn't. :D There are so many great cocktail bars in Singapore: Tippling Club, Manhattan, the Library, Cufflink Club and so many others. However, this particular cocktail is very unique in that its cocktails have an Asian Twist. You can't get that in New York. In my opinion, one of the best cocktail bars on the Island!

These guys are great. This is the kind of stuff I love, when bartenders masterfully create UNIQUE cocktails with local ingredients in a chill ambiance. Frankly, I felt reminded of walking into a friend's house and hanging out in that type of setting. My girlfriend and I walked in at around midnight on a Saturday night and were surprised at how quiet it was. They mentioned that last call would be at 12:30 yet they didn't end up doing so until closer to 2 am so instead of only ordering 1 drink, I got 3 :P My first was their version of Penicillin with honey, lemon juice, ginger and one of their whiskeys. Except this one they use some chocolate somewhere and do a float of Lagavulin on top and maybe some coconut in there? Took a while to make but that's because of the steps involved, and It is presented in a china type glass that you would drink tea out of along with some homemade tea jelly. This was incredible, definitely taste your usual Penicillin cocktail with a more local twist which is awesome. Easy to drink. The second drink was the bartender's off the menu Old Fashioned drink (since they served the last of one of their ingredients to the Fire Roasted Old Fashioned just beforehand). I don't remember what the bartender did but he did something to make this one sweet but addicting cocktail, definitely one of the best old fashioned twists I've ever had. The last drink was a classic drink that I tried for the first time, called the Boulevardier. I've always loved Negronis and Old Fashioneds, so they made me a drink that has elements of both. I'm hooked. My girlfriend ordered one of their milk drinks with pandan. Although it tasted great, it was just too rich. Difficult to drink more than a few sips. Bartenders are very cool and knowledgable. I love going into places where passion fuels what they do, and you can clearly see these in their drinks. Highly recommend checking this place out at anytime. From the sounds of it, there isn't any queue or wait time for now, so check it out before it starts getting more known and crowded!

Unexpected magic! This is by far the best cocktail bar in Singapore in regards to the drinks. I have been to all the local cocktail bars and honestly all are fantastic, but where hopscotch succeeds is the insane craft of their drinks. Folks, these drinks are absolutely incredible. Creative, balanced, utilizing the nose to augment the experience. It's worth every penny! I have tried 9 of the cocktails, 3 off the menu. All ... I repeat ALL, were stellar. This is the top chef experience of the cocktail world. Yes unexpected, don't be a fool and pass this up if you are a severe cocktail snob!

Such interesting concoctions created by the friendly and skilful bartenders! We enjoyed our time here so much with all the quirky drinks and games that were provided for us to play! Definitely coming back here again!

Best HH deal in town!! It's 1-for-1 for all drinks, including all their fancy, creative cocktails. Every cocktail I had was delicious and presented in their own unique ways. I have brought a few friends back here for HH for a few times now and they all loved it. For food, you can order takeout from a local 'zi char' place. Perfect place to spend your after work evenings here!
