Jigger & Pony

Love the vibe, drinks, and service staff. Whether you are here for the potent unique drinks, to catch up with your friends, to check out or be checked out, or to ogle at the cutest bartender in town, Jigger and Pony checks all boxes. Shout out to Lucas, one of the bartenders, for his personable service and for the complimentary choc lava cake as it was my birthday. The place can get noisy when it's packed but the acoustics is pretty good, the noise isn't jarring. There are 2 floors, reckon can fit total 40 pax, but it's still packed to the brim. We were a party of 3, joined the wait list at 8.10pm on Friday night, we managed to be seated at 8.35pm. Will definitely be back.

I would give 6 stars if I could! I’m not a huge fan of bars and I avoid them usually. But I’ve seen too many friends visiting this bar and decided to search more on it! Definitely worthy of Asia and World 50 BEST bars! They hold your reservation for 15 minutes only so come early. If you are too early which I was, you can drink at the hotel reception bar just outside while waiting. I mentioned that it was my birthday and they gave a chocolate lava cake! THE CAKE IS DAMN GOOD! I LOVE IT! The chocolate is not too sweet and it’s melty and really delicious. We had each got their recommended cocktails on the first page of the menu. It was great! TBH I’m not a huge fan of cocktails. So we told the server that we wanted another round of cocktails but customised to our liking and so he key into the system for us. The lady bartender who read our order got 1 of our drinks totally wrong and tbh her attitude from afar wasn’t the best as it seemed she looked irritated as it’s customised. Later the server named Wei Jie went to speak to someone and the service recovery thereafter was something we didn’t expect! I am extremely impressed by their service and service recovery and they definitely deserve to be one of the top in the world. The other servers there are all really friendly too who explained the drinks in detail and served us with a positive attitude. Would recommend this bar to anyone who wants a chill night out! Kudos to all the servers there!

Had an absolute blast at Jigger & Pony the other night. ✨ Grateful to have caught David Kim behind the bar – every drink he crafted carried intention, warmth, and story. The team’s hospitality was next level; thank you David, Solla, Arnel, and Martin for making me feel right at home. 🫶 I loved how each floor carried its own distinct vibe, yet everything tied together seamlessly. The drinks paid homage to the classics but carried the unique soul of the bar in every sip. No wonder it’s one of the best bars in the world!!! Nights like these remind me why I fell in love with cocktails in the first place. 🍸

Definitely earns its spot in the top 50 bars. Tasty creative cocktails. My favorite by far was the smashing sundae: it really tasted like ice cream. No age restriction so we were able to bring our teenagers, who had shirley temples. Great friendly service. Even got to talk to the hospitality manager. I highly recommend trying this place, and will for sure be back the next time we're in Singapore.

Third time's the charm, and this bar never disappoints, even on my third visit! Hence why they're Asia's 50 Best Bars 2025 (no. 3). Tried their new "embrace" menu, and the cocktails and mocktails are such hits! I always look forward to every visit with their twists on the menu's concoctions. May y'all keep it up and make Singapore proud in the bar scene!

Jigger & Pony in Singapore is one of the coolest, most vibey bars in the city, known for its creative cocktails and lively atmosphere. I really enjoyed the vibe and the setting and it definitely lived up to its reputation as a top cocktail bar. That said, I was surprised to see families with small children there. It’s kinda the first time I’ve seen that in a venue of this kind, and it felt a bit out of place given the concept.

Jigger and Pony is a cute bar located in the lobby of the Amara Hotel. It has a very casual vibe and it can get very busy on certain nights. Not too sure why it has such a highly regarded bar in the world but the service is definitely top notch. The crowd is on the younger side and there was plenty of seating. I ordered a Mojito and it tasted a little off. Maybe this was not the drink of choice.

A pricy, high end drink experience worth a visit for a drink, or in my case, two. Jigger and Pony is in the world Top 100 cocktail bar list for a reason. They make their take on classic cocktails as well as offering standards that should please everyone. Their atmosphere is energetic and creates for excellent people watching. My only potential note would be that they keep it cold. Not cool, cold. They do offer shaws and blankets if necessary. The service is friendly and willing to give you your space or tell you some history and provide in depth drink recommendations. They will even speak of how the drink flavors linger, which may have you adjust your order sequence.

Jigger & Pony has the #5 spot on The World's 50 Best Bars list, so when we found ourselves staying a short walk away, we decided to check it out. The place takes reservations, and we grabbed the only one available, for a midnight seating. Crazytown for a couple of middle-aged parents, but we were only in Singapore for one night. We napped during the day and showed up ten minutes early. The bar was on the lobby level of the Amara hotel, and we were welcomed in as soon as we arrived. It was a fun spot, attractive and lively, definitely a scene. I appreciated that the reservation came with seating, two stools right at the bar. There were three or four bartenders behind there at any given time, and they were young and friendly and seemed to be having a blast. I really liked the guy making our drinks, a sweet Korean dude who's lived in Singapore most of his life. We ordered our cocktails from a beautiful "menuzine," a full-color book with a page dedicated to each drink. The cocktails were quite elaborate, with tons of ingredients and complicated processes. We are the correct audience for this sort of over-the-top mixology, but to our surprise, the results were not entirely successful. The one I take issue with is the Perfect Manhattan, made with Woodford Reserve rye, Carpano Antica, Mancino Secco, stracciatella, and chocolate bitters. The rye was fat-washed with stracciatella ice cream, and the whole thing was garnished with a chocolate cherry. This sounded interesting, but was weirdly less tasty and balanced than the Manhattans we make at home, also with rye and Carpano. I did like our other three cocktails. The Ugly Tomatoes was nice, lightly sweet and savory, with Hendrick's Orbium gin, ugly tomatoes, kummel, and elderflower. The Yuzu Whisky Sour was solid, with Maker's Mark bourbon, yuzu marmalade, St. Germain, lemon, and egg white. The Peaches & Daisies was a lovely refreshing cocktail with Nikka Coffey grain whisky, lacto-fermented peach, cranberry, chamomile, and lemon. We had a great time at Jigger & Pony, and I'd recommend it if you want a happening bar where you can sit and enjoy a fancy cocktail. Is it the fifth-best bar in the world? Probably not. But the drinks are unique and the vibes are good.

We had a large group to check out a few cocktails given this bar was ranked #5 in the world's 50 best bars for 2024. I liked how they described each drink in detail on the menu. However, the drinks were pricey. We each got two cocktails while there and I enjoyed the Godfather more than the Greatest of All Time. Would recommend if you want to try out well made cocktails.

My fave bar in the Singapore! Definitely make a reservation in advance for seats at the bar. The menu is gorgeous and includes several N/A options that are just as thoughtful and delicious as the regular cocktails. The Champagne Ramos Fizz was gorgeous and tasted even better. And the Velvet Negroni was the smoothest, most delish negroni I've ever tasted. The bar team is really talented and super friendly- gave us some great recommendations of places to check out for the rest of our visit. Highly, highly recommend!

Arrived around 6 PM to try and catch their happy hour, and they were able to squeeze us in at the bar even though we didn't have a reservation. We ordered their cocktail of the month and the smashing sundae, and both were delicious! The smashing sundae stood out more from the two, it went down very smoothly and tasted just like ice cream. While this is the #3 bar in Asia, it's not stuffy or pretentious, and the bartenders are very friendly and gave us recommendations on places to visit in Singapore. A great place to go for unique and well-made drinks!

Great ambience and vibes. The bar is located inside a hotel and has a dimly lighted environment. We made a reservation in advance and were prompted seated at the bar after checking in with the staff at the front. Our bartender was friendly, helpful, and easy to chat with. The menu booklet is extensive, with many drink options to choose from. I decided on the Yuzu Whisky Sour and it was a delicious drink. Chips are also provided so that you can enjoy some bites with your drink. If you're looking for a drink in Singapore, Jigger & Pony is a great bar to check out.

Fun spot. Excellent service and drinks by Solla. Friendly bartenders. Very experienced. Each drink has its own story. Why 5 stars? They put your drink in the fridge when you go bathroom. Lots of unique drinks. Intimate setting. Not super busy when it opens surprisingly so there's happy hour! Well worth a visit. Pear and tonic 5/5 Lemon highball 5/5

There are good bar, great bars, and then there are bars like Jigger & Pony that deserve mention above and beyond the others. They don't just craft cocktails, they craft experiences for their guests. The menu celebrates riffs on classic cocktails using seasonal and sometimes ingredients. It's a well designed menu that accommodates any pallet. The Godfather, Yuzu whiskey sour, porn star martini, and classic sazerac were all wonderful. There's a happy hour before 730. Reserve your seat a bit in advance to get a seat at the bar and you'll have a wonderful time. Let them know if you're a vegetarian and they'll give you a non meat bar snack.

Voted #2 bar in Asia and #12 in the world. Need reservations to get in as it is on the smaller side despite being 2 levels but more like 1 1/2 levels as the second level overlooks the first. The menu is a hardcover magazine like booklet that explains the bar and the drinks, there is also a page with all the drinks listed as a grid. The top row Is least alcoholic and the bottom row is the most boozy. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The bar tenders do make some amazing drinks and they make their takes on classics as well. They also serve small bites like crab dip, impossible meat flatbreads and so on. The music is really good here as well and I can't really explain the style. It sounded like a modern take on big band and swing music but it sounded great, it is loud in there. Defiantly would come back even though the drinks are pricey but hey it's Singapore.

Give Liz a raise. She was an awesome bartender. Very nice to talk to and very fast making drinks that were excellent! Hope she is still working there next time we are in town. -From the crossword guys

Suggested stop on our journey, Definitely the world standard. Drinks are amazing, The ambiance is unrivaled. Small plates are done to the highest level. I must stop.

Visited Jigger and Pony in Singapore for the first time in June 2024. Made an evening reservation online a couple weeks in advance for a party of 4. The venue is located inside of the Amara hotel and was easy to find from the lobby. I had very high expectations for visiting Jigger and Pony which was ranked the #2 bar in Asia. The service, drinks, and overall vibes of the bar completely exceeded my expectations! Our host was Aldrich who was honestly one of the best we have ever had. He was super fun, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond multiple times. From providing us birthday shots for one of our party members, to providing recommendations around the area, to even getting us signed copies of their most recent cocktail menu from their staff, he truly made our experience incredible! The cocktails were so good as well. My party had extensively explored many of the top bars around Hong Kong and Singapore and my favorite by far was Jigger and Pony. The team there is amazing and I recommend anyone in the area to pay them a visit!

I made a reservation far far in advance of my visit to Singapore and Jigger and Pony has really raised the gold standard for cocktail bars. The ambiance is lounge-y and very cool. The service is impeccable, our server Eldridge really took care of us. The drinks were unbelievably delicious. Eldridge talked us through the menu, and as a big fan of Whisky, I started with The Godfather. A drink so delicious, I'm going to have dreams about it, until my next trip! Up next? Tequila, but of course. I ordered the White Toreador. An excellent drink, but now I kind of wish I ordered The Godfather again, lol. I can't wait to come back. It's a pity it won't be for another year!

I read this place was ranked in the top 50 best bars in the world so I figured I needed to give it a try. I tried the Yuzu Whiskey Sour which was incredible. Highly recommend! I also tried an old fashioned. Either of those you can't go wrong with but definitely try the Yuzu Whiskey Sour since you don't see that on the menu in other places in the world. Also if you're hungry go for the bikini sandwich. If you like truffle you will love this. Overall very cool spot and I would love to return.

At the time of visit, Jigger and Pony was one of the top 50 bars in the world and it definitely shows! Reservations are a must and I snagged one for 6 people through their website. There's no dress code but because of the fancy-ish decor, I'd recommend having something a little nicer on. Their cocktail menu was presented in a magazine and it looked so legit! The first couple pages list all the drinks and our waitress explained that the drinks get stronger as you go down the chart. The rest of the magazine gives more details on each cocktail and there's even a section for punch bowls at the very end. You can even buy the magazine as a souvenir! Sakura Martini: Being a martini, this drink was really strong. I mean, straight up alcohol. The gin is infused with Sakura and the drink comes with a little Sakura flower on the bottom. I kind of remember it being slightly sweet but the alcohol really overpowers everything. Ichigo Bowl: It's about 15-20 servings, depending how generous you are with your scoop. Definitely more than enough for a group of 6, especially since we each got our own drink on top of this. Our waitress was very attentive and kept refilling our cups through the night. I really enjoyed this drink and everyone was either too full or drunk by the end. It gets really cold in there, at least maybe because our spot was next to an AC vent. Other than that, the drinks were great, the service was amazing, and we even got some great recs from our waitress for NYE festivities. Definitely recommend visiting!

Cute spot! We had to wait about 45mins for a group of 6. It's in a hotel lobby so we chilled there. They don't really take your number so we primarily stayed there. The host did suggest us to check out another bar, but unfortunately the ones that were close by were closing soon. Upon walking in (up the stairs), the atmosphere was dim and loungey. There are a lot of communal tables, a bar area, and small tables for the different groups. It doesn't seem like a place to go alone (more for groups). We were in the back and by the AC so it was very cold. We didn't know this until the end, but you can request blankets. And you should because they were comfy. When you are seated, you have the menus with a variety of cocktails and yummy chips. The menu has a fun map where you can answer questions and it'll suggest a cocktail for you Drinks were yummy!

Came here for happy hour with reservation. The yuzu whiskey sour was good but negroni was even better (balanced, abundance of herbal undertones and exquisite taste). Enjoyed the lounge like atmosphere and service was friendly, informative and prompt (chips refilled several times with no hesitation).

Great speakeasy with a nice atmosphere that's comfortable and spacious with art deco vibes. We were excited to try this bar after seeing it on the 50 best bars list and came to check this out on our recent trip to Singapore. Their menu puts a twist to classic cocktails and we love looking through the booklet which acts as a menu with a background on each drink. We're not heavy drinkers so stuck with the lighter cocktails. We got the yuzu whisky sour with the corn colada for round 1. I really loved the whisky sour but the corn colada lacked the corn punch I expected from trying other corn-based cocktails in the past. It tasted mostly of pineapple but did have a buttery taste similar to popcorn. We also tried the jasmine rice which was good but didn't have much jasmine flavor. Overall, a nice spot to go to with friends. It's fun and ritzy without being too stuffy which is great.

Currently on the World's 50 Best Bars at #12 and Asia's 50 Best Bars at #2. Located in the Amara hotel right off the main lobby. The bar area is dimly lit for that vibey atmosphere. A hostess greets you and there's some lounge corners, a long communal table, the bar, and some additional seating a few stairs up. I recommend making a reservation if you're able to. Each cocktail is $28 SGD and then with service charge, GST fees, $33+ SGD per drink, so a pretty penny. For a group of two coming at 7:30PM on a Wednesday, it was quite packed, but we were able to get a couple of seats at the bar. The menu is designed like a magazine for each drink and the front page has the table of contents in a grid table with the lightest alcohol content (or mocktails) on the top row to the highest percentage on the last. Then the columns I think are based on specific taste preference like sweet, sour, etc. Our server Gerald was amazing - friendly, knowledgeable, and good conversation! Everyone was very friendly and seeing the bartenders do their craft was really fun. We tried Soy Milk Punch, Godfather, Greatest of All Time, and Ramos Gin Fizz. I like the Soy Milk Punch the best with the egg white foam top which was delicious. We wanted to try some of the food items but we're running on a tight schedule. Definitely a spot for elevated cocktails and good vibes to hang out with friends in Singapore!

The drinks - perfection The ambiance - sleek and sophisticated Service - fun and knowledgeable Oh and they're a Top 50 Bar in the World. Need I say more? Didn't think so. Enjoy!

The decor wasn't what I expected, office lounge vibes but the cocktails are amazing. I got the Negroni which was excellent and the espresso martini which was the best espresso martini I ever had. The mixologist really spent his time crafting the cocktail, from the way he custom cut the block of ice to fit the glassware to resting a thin chocolate circle on top of the foam. I was given a wooden spoon and instructed to tap the chocolate circle to crack it into my drink. We also ordered some side dishes - charcuterie board, sausage and mash potatoes, olives and hummus. They also provided us complimentary tapioca chips and a roadie shot to go. I understand why Jigger and Pony was voted #2 of best top 50 bars in Asia.

We sat at the bar (with reservations be sure to make one) and Daniel was our bartender. Absolute gem of a human, made me the best espresso martini if my life. I also had the Ugly Tomatoes (crazy delicious), Soy Milk Punch (unique, delicious) and the Clove Club (continuing the trend - fantastic). We also had the Calabrian Chili Mac and Cheese and lost our minds over it. Definitely worth the trip (and price).

They take their cocktails so seriously it borders on self parody but the cocktails are so good and the vibe is so cool

Ranked on both the 50 best bars in Asia, and 50 best bars in the world, I went here with a lot of expectations. The place is classy with a very speakeasy/art deco vibe. Service is prompt and courteous. Their menu is very interesting and beautifully presented with a history of the bar and the drinks.

For this being the in the top 50 bars list and being the top one within Singapore, it was quite a letdown. Drinks were nothing special, usually quite loud, just feels like it doesn't have its own personality. There are so many more nicer and more interesting bars that serve better drinks.

I love this place! Located nicely in a hotel hidden away. You walk into this old school, dark lounge and you feel like you have been taken back to the 20's a bit. There ton's of seating in the main bar area or up the stairs in the back, this place is quite popular so sometimes seating might be difficult to find. I am not big on getting mixed drinks, however when you come here how can you not?! I loved every drink I got, between my husband, friends and myself seemed like we had half the bar menu. The menu is really original as well, it's put together in a magazine/booklet form. I love it! We had the following: Java Cooler: Tanqueray London Dry Gin, sesame, calamansi, Fever Tree Aromatic Tonic- light and tasty! June Bug: Hwayo 25 Soju, Koko Kanu Coconut Rum, homemade midori, awamori, lemon, egg white- This is a little sweet with the coconut rum, the egg whites gives the drink the froth on the top. Williams Cooler: Vedrenne Poire Williams, Capovilla Pere Williams, jasmine orris liqueur, lime, soda- This one was my favorite, there isn't too much to this one, light and fresh! Yuzu Whiskey Sour: Bulleit Bourbon, yuzu marmalade, St Germain, lemon, egg white: Very similar to a whiskey sour I loved every drink, all very delicious and nothing overly sweet.

We arrived to town late and walked up right as they were closing. The staff was so nice and accommodating. We were able to buy a bottle of wine to take up to our room.

Amazing bar in Singapore with excellent drinks and atmosphere! Highly recommend. On best bars of the world. Had great mocktails.

Really unique and creative bar. The drinks were great too! Definitely a nice place.

This is a rock star bar with rock star cocktails. Everything here from the mixers to the spirits screams premium, so you had better be prepared to pay premium prices (around $22 Singapore for most cocktails); however, what you will get for you hard- earned dollar is an excellent cocktail and perhaps something you have never heard of before. I saw a copy of bar PDT's cocktail guide, so it is obvious that this bar staff is taking a page from one of New York's legendary bars. Yup, win best bar in the world and you can pretty much call your bar legendary. It appears as if these guys have their eyes set on the prize, and the only area that I can see that they have to work on is customer interaction; they spent a great deal of effort making the drinks to perfection but it would have been nice to see some more flare, and a bit moe personality behind the bar. However, if you're just hanging with friends, this bar is an elegant experience.

Didn't know a ton about Jigger and Pony but it got an endorsement from the Employees Only staff so certainly worth dropping in. The bar is relatively easy to find (as far as Singapore goes - no hidden doors or tricks involved) and is a very lovely set up. Its mid-century but dialed back a bit so it doesn't feel kitschy. The staff was awesome, all happy to chat, talk cocktails and shoot the breeze. The drinks were fun and well crafted but still approachable. One of the drinks was a riff on a Korean TGIFridays drink but with homemade Midori. I know this might not sound amazing, but it was a near perfect drink. It was well crafted, nuanced, and still managed to not take itself too seriously. I'm so glad I was able to make it into Jigger and Pony and wish I had shown up earlier in the night so I had time to try a couple more drinks. I would even consider staying in the Amara Singapore hotel above the bar just to maximize my drink time.

This is the BEST cocktail bar I have ever been to. We went on a Thursday night and it was surprisingly quite empty -- not that we minded! We started out with the Corpse Reviver and the Moscow Mule. I had the former and it's probably my new favorite cocktail ever. The presentation is great - I love the beautiful jelly - and the cocktail itself is a masterpiece. The jelly tastes like absinthe, but better, and it melts in your mouth when you sip this sour, refreshing drink. The Moscow Mule was also excellent - a perfectly done Moscow Mule, and very gingery. For round two, we opted for Bad Blood and the Butterfly Effect. However, they were actually out of Bad Blood. I was pretty bummed, mostly because I had very much wanted a drink in one of those cute pineapple cups!! So, the bartender was awesome enough to make me a different drink, not on the menu, in that cup. He asked my drink preferences specifying that It had to contain absolut elyx. What I got was an incredible, tart and fresh elder flower cocktail with real flowers in it! I was so impressed by the bartender and waitress' efforts to go above and beyond to make sure I had a happy experience. It made the night even better to have such great service (in addition to amazing cocktails). The Butterfly Effect was also excellent - the flavors were very complex and the drink was very strong! Again, this was probably the best cocktail experience I've ever had, due to the combo of amazing drinks and stellar service. I hope I can return to singapore soon so I can have such an experience again at jigger & pony.

If you're thirsty, let's do it Jigger & Pony My cocktail is waiting Come and drink from it J&P is A-OK. The cocktails are decent, as is the vibe. I've been here a few times, both work & social, but have never craved returning as it lacks the appeal of other small bars.

I've been here twice, and I think this place is A-OK if you are in the neighborhood for a drink and want a nice place to sit down, with a speakeasy sort of vibe. They do bespokes well here, and I've been moderately satisfied with my drinks, given that bespoke drinks are sort of a wild card. The crowd here is mostly CBD types, with some couples here and there. I like to sit in their booths, where there is privacy and comfort. They provide complimentary tapioca chips. I suggest you don't eat them, because once you start, you really can't stop. Price-wise I am not sure, but I assume that this is a 25 per cocktail sort of place. The AC can be a bit of downer at times.

After checking out 28 Hong Kong and Bitters & Love, I came across Jigger and Pony and hit upon another excellent spot for classic cocktails. And while there are certain similarities, there are also some definite differences as well. At Jigger and Pony, the two things are a great selection of Japanese scotch and free bar snacks (the chips are addictive!) :). They also do some interesting flights with both Europe and Asian scotch. I tried an old fashioned and substituted the Makers Mark with Bulleit. The drink was very well done, and I loved the trio of citrus - orange, lemon, and lime (see my pic). The place can get pretty crowded and lively, but the service and quality remain high. Definitely worth stopping by especially if you are near by Raffles Place.

Jigger and Pony is a great cocktail bar without the stuffy attitude that tends to accompany such establishments. The menu is solid and the bartenders know they're shit. I had several different cocktails and sampled one of their punches, everything was on point - ok I was pretty trashed when I had the punch so it could have been terrible but I doubt it. Jigger and Pony is definitely my go-to spot when I'm in Singapore. There might be better places out there, but I don't care to look for them. When I find a place I really like I stick with it.

This place is FANTASTIC! They really know their spirits and have a true passion for craft cocktails. The bartenders are clearly proud of what they produce, and genuinely interested in your satisfaction. We went for happy hour - 6-8pm means a selection of their drinks are SG$14 instead of SG$22, and there are also discounts on their snacks. As we enjoyed our drinks, we watched the bartenders finish preparing all the fruit garnishes and the hand-chipped ice blocks. We had a great chat with some of the staff about various gins, small-batch producers, and the industry as a whole... these folks aren't just phoning it in - they love what they do. My favourite drink was the Sakura Sakura - just a right amount of sweetness, but they will also create something to your taste - just tell them what you like. The snacks were also good. The deconstructed cypress skewers were just ok, but the friend pickles were excellent. It was a huge bowl of tempura'd pickles veggies with a delicious creamy dipping sauce, And the chicken meatballs with cheese sauce made us want to lick the plate. If you're looking for just beer or wine, its a waste of their talents. If you want an exceptional drink, this is the place.

Classy spot. Romantic environment. Unfortunately I don't remember what I drank here because I was s***faced from bar stories. But I had a good time nonetheless.

After some bar hopping, my friend and I landed at this bar and we ended up staying. Maybe it is because we were tired, drunk or both? Could be, but I felt that this was the best place we were at that night. I liked the atmosphere, we sat at the bar and it was nice to watch the bar tenders but more importantly, I think they did a pretty decent job with the cocktails. I am typically not very adventurous when it comes to cocktails, I like to stick to what I know so I went for an Old Fashioned and was not disappointed. I am doubting between 3 or 4 stars but the fact that they have a stocked a decent variety liquors and a seemingly well thought of menu (not only overly sweet concoctions - yay) makes me lean towards 4 stars. I also noticed that their menu has quite a selection of punch bowls, I haven't seen that in too many other bars in Singapore. Unfortunately, we didn't go for them as it was only the two of us and we already had our fair share of drinks before, but they looked quite attractive and this gives them that little edge which will make me come again.

I popped in this place on Saturday night, which was a good first stop. It was relatively quiet, but I was able to catch the end of happy hour, walking in at 8p.m. It's a nice place to grab a drink, or cocktail and it's a bit dressy. Moscow Mule was solid, service was quick, and the A/C was blasting. I'd swing back in here, on a night on the town. More of a 3 1/2 star quality.

Heard about Jigger & Pony and decided to check it out on our trip to Singapore. Everything was great. A true speakeasy feeling. The cocktails were fantastic and the bartender great to talk to. He took the time to explain how the cocktails we ordered came about. Definitely recommend checking it out.

One of the several good bars in Amoy Street. Led by local persons it is still an american bar style etablissement. Own twists for standard cocktails enhance the standard repertoire. You can get high class drinks and good food here. Drinks are prepared with a high routine. Communication with the staff is very different, depending with who you can tlak. Some are open for a chat, some are not so open, others are very interested in you bar experience and helping you to expand yours.

I have been a regular patron at this bar for over a year now. I come here more often than I would like to readily admit on social media (no I am not an alcoholic... I hope). Fundamentally I come for the holy trifecta of hospitality: the drinks, the atmosphere & the service. Jigger & Pony scores highly on all fronts. As far as the drinks go, these are some of the best classic cocktails you're likely to find this side of Japan. If an Old Pal demands 240 stirs then 240 stirs it shall receive. What is the appropriate type of brown spirit to use in an Old Fashioned? Talk to the bar manager and he will sort you out based on your palate. Whiskey sour with egg white or without egg white? It's all good over here. Mixing booze into glasses with garnishes and serving them at $20++ is a dicey thing to do. People have different tastes, you can't please everyone and for that kind of money they will have higher expectations. But having extreme attention to detail, akin to a cocktail Zen Master, and politely inquiring about your patrons' pre-existing tastes and cocktail prejudices certainly goes a long way. Moreover the atmosphere at Jigger is excellent. It's rarely completely dead but never too crowded. The booths are very comfortable to sit for hours with a group of friends. The light is not too bright, not too dim and the music is at an appropriate volume for ambiance but doesn't kill conversations. The service is friendly, polite and sometimes firm (but considering the horrors hospitality staff have to deal with this seems appropriate). The staff at Jigger will do their best to accommodate your requests as long as you're polite and understanding. Want to sit at the bar and talk the bartender's ear off? Sure, why not. When I started going to this place I knew none of the people that worked there (full disclaimer for bias-reporting purposes) but since being a regular there for over a year I consider them my friends. And that should be every man's relationship with the people that serve his liquor.

Have you ever watched the Victoria's Secret fashion show and thought damn I want to look like Candice Swanepoel, so you order an $80 bikini... only to find its actually a thin piece of made-in-china junk and that all you saw on tv and the All Access site was the crafty work of Russell James and the brilliant Ed Razek? That's how I feel about 70% of the restaurants and bars I visit these days in Singapore. A lot of hype and not much substance. So imagine my surprise this Thursday evening, when I found myself free from the clutches of a weekly Eastern time conference call and at the bar enjoying every minute. Jigger & Pony won a toss up with Axis bar and for strange line of logic I won't explain here, J&P won. So I got on the phone to make a reservation. A cheerful and organized lady took my reservation, with surprise surprise, no need for gimmicky passwords, directions down Chinese streets or better yet, an answering machine with an elusive number. I ended up arriving half an hour late and my better half was at the table, grinning. That's a very good sign after a work day. He blurted out that the drinks were great, the menu actually listed good liquors by name, the ice was hand cut AND they were serving delicious food samples. So there we were: 3 people, 9 drinks later and two 180g steaks (at $24 a steal, but its a rump/sirloin). We sampled almost half the aperitif selection and 2 classic cocktails and though some of us didn't take too well to 1-2 flavors, the flavor combinations were spot on. Forgive me for forgetting names but the grapefruit drink was genius (though not everyone's cup of tea) and I loved the Cuba Libre and American Lemonade (yes I like a tart profile in my drinks). This is one of those bars where the technique is miraculously consistent and you're allowed to enjoy your drink without pretense. That made my day. Service was prompt, but the kitchen forgot our second steak order for a bit. Seats were comfortable and spaced well, the music and artwork was on trend but not jarring and the bathrooms were as clean as they will ever get for a bar. That the drinks were $14-22 was icing on the cake. Is this one for the books? Duh.

noisy, boisterous, hip cocktail bar in amoy street. depending on your age (mental or biological), you'll either love this place or hate it. I used to love it - I came here when cocktail bars were still fresh and new, and it introduced me to the spumoni, a grapefruit-based cocktail that was imminently drinkable. it was loud-buzzy, which is to say that you could still lean over for conversation, and there was opportunity to speak to the person actually making your drinks. flash three years or so ahead to my latest visit about a month ago - and boy, are things different. the noise level is exponentially magnified, the place is filled with younger ladies dressed rather minimally (by which I mean amount of cloth rather than aesthetic style), and it's almost impossible to get service. in its defense, it's still buzzy (though in an almost clubby, out to have a GREAT time sort of way), and nice if you're out for a loud night out. but if you don't want to shout (and still not be able to make yourself heard), I'd choose somewhere else. p.s. I already know I'm grumpy.

The good: I feel like the staff cares, and the bartenders try hard, and that's a big plus for any F&B establishment. My drinks have always been OK. Nothing has caught me off guard in terms of atmosphere, patrons, drinks or even bar snacks - but expect wanker bankers. Steady Freddy all the way. The bad: But that's just it, there isn't a je ne sais quoi. It's a combination of good elements that just don't quite bring me to bar euphoria. It's like the England national football team, or the latest apple product, or all your favorite sodas spashed together in one cup. It should be perfect, it should be bliss...but it isn't and no one knows why. I'm not suggesting that it's too much of a good thing...it's just nothing great. The ugly: I've been here numerous times and this is how I would describe it: Sitting in a bathtub just when the water starts to get cold. You don't want to get out, so you pour more hot water in (alcohol) but eventually you have to leave and no matter how good it felt when you first got in you're left with the memory of luke warm water. Not quite the most poetic description, but what I'm trying to say is that it's better than a shower but in no way is it a hot tub.

Another classy joint to join the ranks of 28 on Hong Kong, Coffee Bar K, The Cufflink Club, etc. This one is rumored to be opened by the cocktail guru of Singapore. Can't recall his name but if you go to Bar Stories on Haji Lane they might tell you. Anyway I love that the bartenders dress up, the cocktails are potent (my favourite is the Corpse Reviver) and the food is yummerz (try the steak sandwich!). Good crowd and decent music too. If you like your cocktails, you can't miss this place out.

I've been here twice. First time wasn't so impressive because we came in late and I was sitting at the edge of someone's table in a crowded cocktail bar. So i left and forgot about this place for a few months. Fast forward nine months later, i was entertaining a visiting exec and was tasked with finding the venue. Jigger & Pony constantly came up as recommended place, so i figured - why not, i'll give them a proper chance. So off we went, a party of 8 seated at one of their booths. It was comfortable enough seating but the table did get a bit crowded once we started ordering food. Food was great. we ordered meatballs, cold cut platter and and some sort of cheese melted on top of bread (but i forgot the name of this dish). All of them turned out excellent - far exceeded my expectation for bar food. Aside of this, they also constantly bring in free small sandwiches for you to nibble on. Other bars should take note of this - people love free food no matter how simple they are. Cocktails were amazing - i get why they're named as one of the best cocktail bars in town. They have a selection of pre-dinner cocktails for $14 (usually $20) until 8pm, which i think is a total steal for the quality. I would recommend Moscow Mule (ginger beer!), Lavender Gimlet (gin and lavender) and Darjeeling Cooler. The ambience and music makes it perfect for an after-work place, and you do see those type of people here especially with the place being so close to CBD. It reminds me of 28 hks minus the speakeasy factor. On top of that, service was top notch! We never felt neglected despite the place being pretty much full on Friday night. Highly recommended, will come back again.
