8 Best Gin Bars in Singapore (2026)

Singapore's gin scene runs deeper than the average cocktail list. This guide gathers eight venues where gin is the point rather than an afterthought, each checked against its own website or current listings: dedicated gin bars with encyclopaedic back bars, working craft distilleries that pour at the source, and gin-forward cocktail bars that build their menus around the spirit. Treat it as a shortlist to explore rather than a strict ranking, and check current opening hours, any dress code and reservations with each venue before you go.

Atlas anchors the soaring Art Deco lobby of Parkview Square in Bugis, and its centrepiece is a multi-storey gin tower that the bar says holds more than 1,300 labels, spanning early-20th-century London dry gins to modern craft bottlings. Its guided Gin Tower Experience lets guests ascend the structure with a bartender to explore the collection, and the wider menu runs to European-style cocktails and champagne. This is the most lavish, maximalist gin destination on the list, and a place worth dressing up for.

Cin Cin sits on the ground floor of Oasia Hotel Downtown in Tanjong Pagar, styling itself as a boutique gin bar in a vintage-glam setting. The venue says it keeps around 100 gin labels behind the counter and offers hundreds of ways to build your own gin and tonic or Martini, pairing different gins with a range of tonics and garnishes. Gin flights and gin-forward cocktails round out a menu built squarely around the spirit rather than treating it as one option among many.

Brass Lion is a working micro-distillery on Alexandra Terrace, near Labrador Park, with an upstairs Tasting Room that doubles as its bar. The distillery focuses on small-batch gins built around regional botanicals, and the Tasting Room pours them as neat flights, gin and tonics and cocktails alongside light bites. It also runs guided distillery tours and gin-tasting sessions that walk through how each expression is made. For drinkers who want to taste gin close to its source, this is one of the few options in Singapore.

Tanglin Gin distills at Dempsey, where its bar, The Gin Jungle, wraps a long counter in leather and timber beneath a jungle-inspired fit-out. The distillery says the space pours its full range of Tanglin gins plus in-house infusions and cocktails, so you can taste the core expressions and small experimental batches side by side. There is a locally inspired food menu too, and the setting among Dempsey's greenery leans relaxed and unhurried rather than nightlife-driven. It suits an easygoing afternoon or early-evening gin session.

Anthology is the flagship bar of homegrown distillery Compendium Spirits, set in a three-storey heritage shophouse on Circular Road near Boat Quay. The ground-floor bar leans on Compendium's own Singapore-flavoured spirits, including its Rojak Gin and Chendol Gin, served in cocktails that riff on local hawker desserts and dishes. Upstairs, the venue runs a barrel-ageing programme that lets members age their own spirit. It is a gin-forward distillery bar with a distinctly Southeast Asian point of view rather than an imported one.

Native, on Amoy Street, is a regional-spirits bar known for zero-waste cocktails built from Southeast Asian ingredients. For gin drinkers, the draw is its own distillation setup, which the bar uses to make house gins infused with local flavours such as matcha or chrysanthemum before folding them into inventive drinks. It is not a gin specialist in the traditional sense, but few Singapore bars put housemade gin so far front and centre. Expect a short, changing menu and a strong emphasis on provenance and craft.

Gibson occupies the second floor of a heritage shophouse on Bukit Pasoh Road, and its whole identity is built around the Gibson, the dry gin Martini garnished with a pickled onion. The bar serves a signature version chilled well below freezing with a house pickled-onion garnish, and its wider list leans on classic and reimagined cocktails. It is a cocktail bar rather than a gin cellar, but gin sits at the centre of the concept, which earns it a spot on a gin-lover's itinerary.

Nutmeg & Clove, on Purvis Street, is a Singapore-inspired cocktail bar whose menus draw on the city's history, produce and hawker flavours. Gin features heavily across its drinks, from a house riff on the gin-based Singapore Sling to cocktails that infuse gin with local botanicals, teas and fruit. It is a cocktail-led venue rather than a dedicated gin bar, but the spirit runs through much of the list, and the bright, welcoming room makes it an easy introduction to gin-forward drinking in the city.
