Besides the obvious heritage and cultural significance of Chinatown Singapore, you can also find some of the best bars hidden in some of the nooks and crannies of this neighborhood. Some of them are prominent; while others are more modest. Although we don't have as many clandestine bars with hidden entrances as in other countries, we compensate for the quality of the cocktails. Use this guide for a cool evening in Chinatown Singapore with your friends.
