Travel Back In Time

San Francisco in the 1800s conjures up images of the Gold Rush and a time of chaos and rapid economic growth. Excess and extravagance were the accelerants of society. Set against the historic heritage shophouses of the Singapore Boat Quay district, Barbary Coast stirs up our imagination of the era with creative cocktails and mesmerising design.

A lifestyle destination with two unique concepts under one roof, Barbery Coast was conceptualisd by The CompoundCollective, who worked with EDG to bring the ideas to live. Comprising The DeadFall and The Ballroom, the multilevel venue is a juxtaposition of the rags to riches lifestyle.
