β β β β β Really nice cosy speakeasy feel of a bar situated on the upper floor of a very English pub in Boat Quay. Service was excellent and the bar man seemed well versed in the intricacies of mixer combos for different drinks.
Highly recommended, especially if you like your Gins.

β β β β β Went here for round 2 and overall a really good experience! Surprisingly empty on a Sat night and we stayed from 9.30pm till closing. Ordered mostly from the all $9.90 menu. If you're not sure what to order, keyword search the drinks in the pdf menu and it will show u the flavour notes of each drink. Really helps to make decision between more fruity, floral, or spices kind of gin.
The staff were really chill and laid back haha which i guess adds to the atmosphere. Manage to get a seat at in a corner sofa area! Had caramel popcorn as a side along with drinks.
Unfortunately kitchen closed when we arrived so couldnt get anything from the food menu.
Overall recommend if u just want a simple and chill place to drink and chat. Really close to one of the Raffles Place mrt exit towards UOB Plaza.

β β β β β Went there on a Friday night and while I think service was a bit slow because they were understaffed, the staff were all polite and friendly. One spilled my friend's drink a little when placing it on our table and she was so apologetic and even got her a free shot as an apology. Not necessary but much appreciated.
I had the bramble, which was pretty good and the cottage pie... oh man... it's so hard to find cottage pie in Singapore and so was definitely looking froward to it. It did not disappoint, perfect for the rainy weather that night and hit the right spot for sure!
my friend's didn't enjoy their cocktails as much though, it was some glittery looking drink which they struggled to finish.

β β β β β Great evening. Large Gin selection. Good value beer and wine albeit small selection but thatβs fine given your target.
Good food ( big overlap with Penny Black menu downstairs which mean solid good value meals ).
Shout out to the crew especially Steven ( Stephen ) who was 1st class with his attentive service and preemptive approach. Thanks team. Will be back.

β β β β β Normally not a fan of one of the many F&B places in Boat Quay area due to the large amount of tourists and also a seemingly particular crowd. However, this place is certainly a hidden gem and has it own charm away from the crowd downstairs and outside.
The happy hour is pretty good with Gin, beer and wine from $6.50++ onward. While agreeing with some of the reviews here that the G&T are pretty watered down, however, the plus point is they have a few selection of Gin brand to choose from. Perhaps they can offer patrons whom prefer a 'stronger' drink at an additional shot, also at a happy hour price, to make the deal even 'sweeter'. A good selection of cocktails too, priced from SGD25++ onward, and most at SGD25++. Although pricier, but certainly good value as the bartender does a good job in making these quite crafted cocktails.
A good selection of bar food, and very British pub style food but good quality. Tried the penny chicken aka chicken cordon bleu which tasted very well, and the thick cut fries are also very delicious.
Staff are generally friendly and helpful, particularly the lady in glasses, likely the manager whom was very warm and take good care of her customers. Chatting with her felt like chatting with a friend.

β β β β β BeGIN has convinced me that yes we do need more gin bars in sg. I quite like the cozy interiors and chill ambience (maybe cos we were there early and basically had the whole place to ourselves ?). Kudos to whoever decided on the playlist this afternoon the music was ?
Was pleasantly surprised by the little βsmoke showβ that came with our Lavender cocktail. Taste wise, I still prefer my monkey 47 gtβ¦
If youβre a gin lover, youβll like this place and if youβre notβ¦ hopefully youβll become one after the experience??
PS the stairs to BeGIN is located *inside* the penny black bar. I didnβt know so it took me awhile to find the place lol.
