Jigger & Pony

Singapore

• The Best Bar in Singapore 2026, sponsored by Back to the Roots

A bastion of Singaporean cocktail culture

From humble origins on Amoy Street to its now sumptuous digs at the Amara Hotel, this Singapore stalwart has featured in the top 10 of Asia's 50 Best Bars rankings for the past eight years, holding onto its title this year as The Best Bar in Singapore, sponsored by Back to the Roots.

The team spends months researching every iteration of its creative and consistently changing magazine menus or, as it terms them, 'menuzines'. The latest release, Bloom, contains more than 24 colourful cocktails, non-alcoholic options and sharing punches to sample. Don't be fooled into thinking simple means simplistic, however, as Jigger & Pony's signature style is present in every sip – take the Soursop Colada, for example, which combines rum with soursop, yoghurt, lemon, egg white and baijiu; or the Strawberry Matcha Cloud, a vibrant, viral mix of gin, strawberry milk punch, sherry, lemon, absinthe and matcha cream.

If you can't choose what to try, start with one of the cocktails that established Jigger & Pony as a Singaporean cocktail star: the yuzu whisky sour. There for a big party? Order a punch bowl to really liven up the festivities. Designated driver? The Osmanthus & Tea hits the spot. If the food-forward libations aren't enough, some inventive bar snacks like the marsala toastie or bikini sandwich (burrata, serrano ham and black truffle) pair well with the buzzy vibe and superb hospitality.
