drinks&co.: Four Concept Bars Bringing Craft Drinks Across Singapore

drinks&co. isn't a single bar — it's a family of four distinct concept venues spread across some of Singapore's most recognisable neighbourhoods, united by a shared focus on "fine foods, boutique wines, craft ales, and artisanal spirits." Each location has its own personality, but all carry what the group calls its "authentic drinks&co. hospitality."

Four Venues, Four Vibes

The Gong by drinks&co. sits at Duo Galleria, offering a mix of casual and sophisticated seating both indoors and out — a flexible setting for anything from a quick after-work drink to a longer evening. Over at IOI Tower, drinks&co. @ Central Boulevard leans into a different rhythm entirely, positioned as the bridge between a demanding workday and a more relaxed, sophisticated evening.

Chapters by drinks&co. takes a more historic approach, housed in a 100-year-old conservation shophouse in Clarke Quay, complete with outdoor seating that looks out toward the Singapore River. Meanwhile, drinks&co. Grill & Cocktails occupies a spot within Chijmes, one of Singapore's most iconic heritage buildings, where the group says history, architecture, and vibrant nightlife come together.

What's Being Poured

Across the group, the drinks menu spans several categories. Classic cocktails include a Singapore Sling Premium Set — built with Hendrick's Gin, fresh lime juice, cherry liqueur, grenadine, Cointreau, DOM Benedictine, pineapple juice, and Angostura bitters — alongside staples like a Long Island, Margarita (classic or frozen), Amaretto Sour, and Old Fashioned.

The draft beer selection draws partly on Western Australian brewing, featuring an Extra Pale Ale from Margaret River and a West Coast IPA from Running With Thieves in Fremantle, alongside Sapporo Premium from Japan and Guinness Stout from Ireland. A Western Australia Beer Paddle — combining an IPA, XPA, and Hazy IPA — is available exclusively at the IOI outlet.

Spirits lean premium, with a Yamazaki 12 Year Old whisky, a Western Australia Sin Gin, Hendrick's and Roku gin and tonics, and a Whipper Snapper Whiskey from Western Australia available only at the IOI location. The wine list includes house pours across Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, and Sauvignon Blanc, plus "The Shelf" — a curated bottle programme where guests can order beyond the house selections.

A Different Kind of Drink Menu

One standout section of the drinks&co. offering is its Qi-Cha Artisanal Herbal Tea range, which pairs traditional ingredients with specific wellness framing. The Night Owl blends chrysanthemum, goji berries, and osmanthus for liver detox and stress reduction; The Melancholic Beauty combines rose, lily, lemon, and osmanthus for skin enhancement and detox support; The Overeater leans on hawthorn, lotus leaves, cassia seeds, and dried tangerine peel for digestion support; and The Hustler uses ginseng, astragalus, chrysanthemum, and goji berries aimed at energy and immunity.

Events and Reservations

Beyond regular dining and drinks, drinks&co. hosts private events across its venues, with indoor areas, outdoor areas, and private dining rooms available depending on the location. Reservations and event enquiries can be made directly via WhatsApp, by phone, or through the group's online contact form.

With four venues each offering a distinct setting — from a heritage shophouse by the river to a modern tower bar — drinks&co. gives Singapore drinkers a reason to explore beyond just one favourite spot.
