The bar's name is a metonymy of The Republic of Singapore, which gained independence in 1965. Republic pays homage to the 60s, and if you think the interior is a tad disjointed and random at times, you're excused for not recognising the 60s cultural references if you're not familiar with history. But yes, they are not random and are specially curated. The cocktail menu is centered around four cultural epicentres: Singapore (obviously, since the bar is named after it!), England, US, and Italy. Most of the drinks here are thoughtfully created and the presentation is always stunning. Been here a few times, and I've not been disappointed with any cocktails that I have been served so far. I'm not at all surprised with their debut entry into the Asia's Top 50 Bars list this year. Well deserved! My go-to cocktail whenever I am at Republic is Satisfaction. If you love stout and coffee, this is your drink, which is inspired by The Rolling Stones song! Though I don't think Mick Jagger will be singing he can't get no satisfaction if he tried this drink. It really is satisfaction in a cup! In terms of food, their bar snacks are pretty creative, with a nice local twist. I would definitely recommend bringing your overseas friends or dates here if you want to impress them. Service here is top-notch. Every single staff knows the menu like the back of their hands, and are always happy to give you recommendations based on your personal preferences. Make sure to tell them what you like (sweet/savoury/smokey/etc), so they can give you better recommendations though. As much as I try not to order Satisfaction just so I can try other drinks, one attentive staff overheard how much I loved that drink when I was talking to my friend, she requested for the bartender to make a complimentary sized version of it for us, so my friend could try it as well. Gestures like this always let you know the service is not cookie cutter and if a bar empowers their staff to make their customers feel at home. We ordered more drinks and food, just because the staff was so thoughtful. And yes, I ended up ordering Satisfaction again even though I told my friend I was not going to.

My friend and I had a wonderful time! From the lunch to dessert and tea, everything was impressive. It’s such a lovely place, the food was great, and the service was awesome! Everyone was warm and friendly. We also didn’t feel rushed, we felt welcomed. I would definitely go back. I also got a peek of the bar and I can’t wait to bring my husband and/or my friends to enjoy some drinks!

Visited Republic Bar after reading so much good stuff about its cocktails and it certainly did not disappoint. The light bites were really delicious too. The entire experience was made even better by the warm service we received from Dunstan. He was cheerful and made it a point to recommend drinks to us after understanding our preference. Thank you Republic Bar and crew for the really enjoyable girls' night out and we will be back again really soon.

Visited republic bar on the first day of 2022 with my partner and initially wanted to try out 2 sets of their high tea menu. With the recommendation from Dunstan, who was serving us, we decided to go for one set of main course (we order a cod fish, if i did remember correctly) and one set of high tea. We were glad that we took Dunstan's recommendation as the high tea set consist of more sweet items which might be too overwhelming for our tastebud, had we ordered 2 sets of high tea. Nonetheless, the overall ambience and the thoughtful service provided by Dunstan, made us enjoy our food at the republic bar. This deserve a 5 star rating from us.

A newish top end cocktail bar located in the Ritz Carlton. As you could expect, the service is supreme from seating to service. They give you curry flavour croutons all night which are amazing. They will refill when they see its empty. The trick is to keep the lid on when it's empty or else you end up eating 5 or 6 containers worth ?. Had a bunch of cocktails plus food. Every cocktail and food items were explained and everything was really well done. A really good place to head for a drink or dinner.

Review for Festive afternoon tea. Ambience: cosy with plenty of natural daylight. Light crowd on a weekday afternoon. Food: Heavily skewed towards sweets. Would have preferred more savoury items. Sandwiches were unremarkable. Scones tasted OK but were not served hot and reheating was not allowed. Coffee was good. Spring Darjeeling tea was fragrant. I was allowed to takeaway some unfinished chocolates and cookies, which is great for reducing wastage. Service: overall not bad but there is room for improvement. The staff can't seem to agree with each other on how many beverages each diner was entitled to - one or two?? Would have been good if the staff could take the initiative to top up the hot water in my teapot. Complimentary parking coupon is available, remember to request for one if you need it - the staff did not take the initiative to offer it unlike at other hotels.
