Southbridge
Instead of going to one of the usual riverside bars at Clarke Quay, get away from the noise and crowds at Southbridge. To be honest, I was a little hesitant to share this intimate candlelit rooftop bar because it's one of my go-to date night locations in Singapore! Southbridge offers a 360-degree view of the city skyline, and a great selection of signature cocktails and wine from around the world. You should also try the Japanese-style bar snacks, wagyu sliders and, for seafood lovers, a selection of oysters - perfect for a Valentine's date.

The Spiffy Dapper
Coffeehouse by day, speakeasy by night, this place was intentionally made to be easy to miss. It's located on the second floor of a shophouse and the sign at the bottom of the stairs only says "Dapper Coffee". Coupling this with the bar's efforts to maintain its self-dubbed reputation of "the worst bar in Singapore", it's no surprise if you've never heard of the place or chosen to give it a miss. Walk through the engraved doors at the stairwell's first landing, though, and you'll be welcomed with décor and vibes that scream "old school" - in fact, some of the music is from the 1920s. Choose from the selection of cocktails and spirits, or leave it to the bartenders to create a bespoke drink for your date to really impress them!
