Smith Street Taps

My fav spot for craft beer in Singapore! Great selection of local craft beers, knowledgeable and friendly staff and reasonable prices. I also enjoy the laid-back vibes of a beer stall in a hawkers center. Overall, it is a must-visit every time I crave a good beer while visiting SG.

Smith Street Tap offers a wide variety of craft beers with many choices to suit different tastes. While it’s on the pricey side for a hawker centre, it’s an interesting concept and a fun place to enjoy good beer in a casual, local ambience.

Great place to grab a beer when you’re at the food market. Taps rotate but there’s a nice selection of local and international beers on tap. Helpful staff that are good with recommendations. Highly recommended.

This is a "must visit" when travelling to SG. Fantastic beer selection. All tasted very fresh. This place is tucked away in a market not unlike a multi story car park, you need to know its there, as you would never walk past it by accident. Went there early Saturday afternoon. Good time to get a table, beers and Satay from the place nearby. Will definitely be going back when I next visit SG.

pretty cool concept of having a draft beer stall in a hawker centre! i got their oktoberfest special @ 14$ (believe this is seasonal) staff is always happy to recommend according to your preferences so check with them if unsure (:

A great craft beer bar in Chinatown, much more professionally run than another I visited in Singapore. A small shop surrounded by food outlets- so plenty of choices nearby for food to accompany the beer. A selection of 12 taps with a changing range that included IPAs, sours, lagers, porters, stouts and hazies. If I lived in Singapore this would be my regular. If you enjoy craft beer this place is a must in Singapore!

Good selection of beers across about 12 taps, in the first floor above the markets at the corner of Smith. Prices about on a par with town. Guys at the taps were fun and knowledgeable.

What an unexpected find right at the quiet fringe of Chinatown Complex - SMITH STREET TAPS that has been opened for 13 years and in this hawker centre 👍🏼🫰🏼 And why won’t you chill out here after a long day’s work in their spacious, quiet verandah overlooking Smith street with their diverse choice of taps from all over the region? While the regular local beers at any coffee shop might promise consistency and pocket friendliness, nothing beats catching up with your close ones at this relaxed & casual location on the 2nd level of Chinatown Complex Hawker Centre when most of the stalls are quiet with only a Cantonese-styled Tze Char and a fried chicken stall to complement this cool chill-out joint where no reservation is needed❣️ Thank you Joel and his friendly team for the endearing recommendations 🫰🏼 Quite a good support on a quiet Monday night 🤜🏼🤛🏼

We were travelling through Singapore and were brought here by local friends. The staff here are friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed the Relaxed Brew, a seasonally available brew from Alive Brewing Co. They love to talk about the various brews on offer and are quite proud of what they do. It's interesting to get a glimpse of what the future of hawker stalls might look like.

Smith Streets Taps, as others have mentioned, has a great selection of beer on tap and quite a few bottles. The best part? The hawker stalls. Come here to enjoy CHEAP food while drinking DELICIOUS brew. The service is always very friendly and the owner knows a lot about beer and great places to drink. Highly recommend!

Wow! Great find in China town. They have a load of beer on tap and in bottles. On tap from Singapore, UK, and U.S.. They face Smith street on the 2nd level. Nice breeze and food all around in the hawker stand. The owner is nice, but Ray who works there is awesome. Chat him up for his lore/ knowledge on beer. Most beers ran $13-15.

Wow. Beer o'clock fo sho. Superb selection of import beers at almost reasonable prices. Stone IPA for $11. Can you believe it! It would be amazing if there was a BBQ smokehouse hawker stall next door. But I can dream! Or order uber eats to deliver decker to the hawker center.

Located on the 2nd floor of the 335 Building in ChinaTown, Singapore, you will not stumble upon this beer bar out of coincidence! You will probably have to ask 4-5 people the location and address before you even get close to the proximity of this bar. Once you find it, you have yourself one of the top beer bars in all of Singapore. I visited Smith Street Taps on three separate occasions during my one week trip. They are constantly rotating their taps and have very friendly/helpful bartenders. There are also MANY options for food, as this bar is tucked away between food markets. If you make it here on the weekend, they have opened another location (20 meters away) that serve local Singaporean Craft Beer. The name of this is "Smith Street Taps & Friends" and you cannot miss it. I also was able to host two Bottle Shares with local friends who I met with in Copenhagen two years ago! The international craft beer scene is always friendly, inviting, and you never know who you'll see again down the road. I would venture to Smith Street Taps if you have a free night on the weekend.

Nice spot in the hawker center. They have a lot of imported beers. They had some from Australia, Hong Kong and the UK. They had a big variety. I had a pineapple sour from Australia. The beers here are a bit more pricey compared to the other beer stall, these are around S$13. It's pretty popular, lots of tourists. Worth a stop for some good beers.

Finally! Awesome beer place, knowledgeable staff. I'm finally home. This place carries even the most obscure beers, they even have Modern Times on rotation! That's like the most niche of all San Diego beers. I had a great conversation with the owner, so cool to speak beer to someone here on the island. I love the fact that this place is in he Chinatown hawker center of all places. I'll be coming back again and again since they have a rotation selection of great craft brew. Thank you Smith Street you have saved me

This place makes a Colorado guy feel right at home with a great selection of beers to choose from. They also have a gluten-reduced beer that my wife can drink who has a mild sensitivity to wheat, so that's a win too. Seriously, check this place out for quality beer on tap and excellent service as well. The satay around the corner makes for a tasty snack also.

I really wanted to have craft beer under AC. But looking at 12 perfect reviews here, it was hard to resist giving it a shot. It's not so hot at night anyway and there's plenty of seating. Bottles at the Good Beer Company, taps here. Take your pick. A 300ml glass is $13-16, the usual in Singapore. Can't help the alcohol tax. The selection is great, as amply detailed in the other reviews. Service is very fast. The biggest difference compared to a typical crafts beer place is that you're sitting in what is probably the largest hawker in Singapore with over 250 stalls. So, you can eat whatever you want, and it will cost very little, maybe a tenth of what you'd normally pay for your hipster BBQ or quinoa salad or "Mexican". Several of the stalls are well known so just google Chinatown Complex stalls before you head out, although we had no bad experiences. In the evening the queues are much better. Chilling out with great hawker food, a glass of cold craft beer in the hand, on a warm quiet night just a couple MRT stops from home, the CBD towers lit up in the distance, it's a pretty good experience and I think we'll be back often.

What is going on in the Chinatown food complex? There are two of the best places for craft beers in the country almost next to each other. This place does also have excellent selection, friendly and knowledgeable staff. They have their beers on tap (rotating selection) and prices are very reasonable to be in Singapore. As with the Good Beer Company it is a plus that one can grab cheap and mostly good food from the surrounding food stalls.

In direct proximity of the phenomenal Good Beer Company is another stand that creates a dynamic duo of drunken deliciousness. Where GBC has bottles, SST has rotating drafts, most of which are solid winners. Even in the sweltering heat, hearing a nearby stand blast chinese pop music from broken speakers, I feel transported back to Boston, if only for a moment. It's my cure for homesickness; looking forward to my next treatment.

I am so glad that I decided to come back here because this is certainly one of those places that you really have to check out if you happen to be in Singapore. If you are getting sick of being offered the standard beers, such as Tiger, or even simply paying through the nose, then make your way down to the Chinatown Complex and check this place out (though it doesn't open until about 6:00 pm). This, and it's sister the Good Beer Company, are one of those secrets of Singapore that unless you are either in the know, or simply a gun and locating things on the internet (or you simply jump on Yelp and type in bars) you would probably end up missing this place, and if you are a beer connoisseur then you will simply have to make you way back here. Where the Good Beer Company serves bottles, this place serves beers on tap, and from what I'm told, it is even rotated. Okay, you do have to put up with the fact that it is in a hawker centre, but then again those places are pretty cool in and of themselves - this place just makes them even better.

The Good Beer Company has metastasized. Apparently the owner, Daniel, was no longer able to live with the limitation of the bottle-only format, so he teamed up with Meng Chao (Brewers' Craft) and opened a second nearby stall with taps. Singapore's first draft beer-only hawker stall! I've stopped by a few times since their recent soft opening and I'm thrilled. Currently, they have 6 rotating taps with great offerings so far. I've seen Rogue, Deschutes, Hitachino Nest, and Jungle Beer. And they always keep Sapporo on tap if you want something light. The price is right. Starting at $6 for the Sapporo and going up to $12 for the craft beer. No food, of course, but it's in the Chinatown Complex, Smith Street Hawker Center so it's surrounded by excellent food stalls.

After trekking around the food court for an hour and been given directions to taps on smith, I finally found it. But it was closed. So pay attention to both the stall number and business hours!!!! But I came back at 6:30pm to enjoy there lovely fruit Saison. While worth the wait.

Drunk review! Jush kidding. Don't tell your friends about thish place. Just bring them here. Excellent beers... and they'll fill your growler too!!

Smith Street Taps is the real deal. Craft beer for the people, at a people-friendly price. Bosses Daniel and Meng Chao are very knowledgeable and the modest tap selection is tightly edited and balanced to offer something for novices and hardcore hopheads. Check out their facebook page before dropping by to see what's on tap!

All the good days and good health! Last Friday came with friends to drink beer. Comrade, who recommended us this place was there and he really liked it. How do you and I write.

Blk 335 Smith Street Chinatown Complex is massive but what really sets this place apart are the number of excellent beer stalls here. It takes awhile to go through the maze, but you are rewarded by 3 solid options, of which Smith Street Taps was my favorite. They carry a line of approximately 10 craft beers, ranging from hoppy American IPAs to German wheat beer to Japanese craft beers. Prices are at least $1-2 cheaper than at a proper restaurant or bar, so if you deal with the heat and minimal amenities, this is the place to go! Plus you can order just about anything in terms of food so that's a plus too (although I would to have some good tacos here...). My friend and I made it through half of the beers here, and our fave was the 7 hop IPA by Deschutes. The selection changes frequently so don't get too attached to a certain beer, but the line up is always interesting. The two guys running the place are super friendly and knowledgeable. Hint: take good note of the stall number unless you need the exercise. Definitely a gem and a great find in Singapore!

Smith street taps is a hidden gem in the Singapore beer scene. Taps rotate with a mixture of micro brews and old world draught beers. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly.

This is the sister stand of Good Beer Company ran by the same owner and with an amazing selection of beer on tap. They always have some really rare stuff, including some whisky barrel aged and bourbon barrel aged beer this week from the U.S., but the selection almost always has some Japanese, some German, and a mix of UK and NZ.
