Junior The Pocket Bar - 6 Ann Siang Hill

Current theme is French Discotheque (but looks more like outer space LOL). Music was a tad loud. Can be cosy or crowded depending on when you go and the number of people you go with. Drinks wise — definitely didn’t stinge on the alc. would return when the next theme is in motion just to check it out :)

Been wanting to try since May 2021 but due to the lockdowns, had to keep rescheduling. It was worth the wait, got to enjoy seasonal cocktails inspired by Peruvian alcohol and food. Cocktails are strong, cold and balanced. Best part? Your water glass won’t ever go empty. Coming back for sure!

I heard great things about this place but what a disappointment. The current decor is French discotheque so it’s a tacky silver cloth all over the ceiling. The cocktails are ok - not spectacular. So far it’s all ok. Cute vibe. Friendly service. After one drink each (there were three of us), we asked for the bill only to be told that we had booked a 2-hour slot, so that means there is a minimum order of $50 per person. I had only just arrived in Singapore and my two friends were tired, and we just had dinner before drinks so were too full to order any food or another drink. They still insisted that we order another drink each even though we were struggling to stay awake. It hadn’t even be an hour since we arrived so it wasn’t that we were occupying a table for a long time. Sadly they insisted that we order another drink so we had to do a takeaway as we were too tired to stay up. Not great service with this - surely they could understand that this was a Tuesday night so it was a slow night anyway? Surely they could see that we were so tired that one drink was all we could have? Well, now we will never go back to Junior the Pocket Bar. Such a shame. I went to Sugarhall the next day, and the drinks and service there were stellar, with no minimum charge. This minimum charge BS isn’t great for people who can’t drink much. It’s just lame.

I like this new space vs the precious one. Very cosy and nice inside. The staff were generally very friendly so good vibes! I went there when there was a guest bartender so there were only 3 drinks available on the menu. Hopefully the next time I go, there will be more options!

Beautifully decorated bar with a seasonal cocktail menu. It was Peruvian themed when I went, and I loved the Corn Milk Punch cocktail. As the seating capacity is limited, do reserve in advance. Minimum spend per pax is $50 but easily hit as you’ll want at least 2 drinks each ($25++ per cocktail), it’s worth it!

Lovely place that can be cosy/cramped depending on how you feel like for the day. Drinks are excellent and unique! food, although being bad snacks, are excellent and can be filling too! interestingly, my favorite dish is the cauliflower which actually has the seasoning of the fries. overall experience is nice in that dark room.

Having just seated 30 minutes at the bar table, after waiting at a “standing table” for 30 minutes. Waiter A: Hey, we are expecting customers with bookings, can we move you outside? Me: Sure we can move. We want one more bottle of wine, and then… I spilled my drink just now. Can I get it replaced? Bartender: HEY. You spilled the drink yourself yes? Before I could answer… Bartender yelling: HEY, you spilled it yourself. I would have made it for you. But why did you lie? WHY DID YOU LIE? Can you imagine yourself being yelled at in this so called “intimate” bar? Maybe the music was a little loud… maybe the people working have had a bad day… Or maybe they don’t really like Singapore. Whatever it is, I would say - just go to another bar :)

Love this little hidden bar and how they constantly change up the menu to keep things interesting. Been here a few times and I've always enjoyed the drinks here. The bartenders are very laid back and have an awesome sense of humour. I don't remember having a single bad drink here. The bartenders always make sure to tell you how the drinks are when you order to make sure you would get a drink of your liking, which is something that speaks of the dedication they have to making sure guests enjoy themselves. It's not a very big place, so if you are coming in during peak hours, I would highly recommend making reservations in advance.
