Acid Bar: Live Music and Late Nights on Orchard Road

Right on Orchard Road, tucked into Peranakan Place, Acid Bar has carved out a reputation as one of Singapore's go-to spots for a night out that runs later than most. The venue describes itself as "a vibrant and electrifying haven for those seeking a unique and unforgettable nightlife experience," and its own words set the tone: edgy, eclectic, and unmistakably different from a typical Orchard Road bar.

Music Every Night

What sets Acid Bar apart is its commitment to live performance — the stage comes alive every evening with a steady stream of musicians, according to the venue. Whether you're there for the music itself or simply for the atmosphere it creates, the nightly lineup is central to the Acid Bar experience, drawing music lovers, art enthusiasts, and anyone looking for a livelier night out.

From Lunch to Last Call

Acid Bar isn't just a late-night venue — its food and drink program covers the full day. On weekdays, there's a set lunch menu served until 3pm, useful for anyone working nearby on Orchard Road. Weekends shift the focus to brunch, also running until 3pm on both Saturday and Sunday. For those after something more casual, there's a dedicated burger and frites menu, alongside separate dinner and drinks menus for evening service. The venue also runs monthly deals, giving regulars a reason to check back in.

Long Hours, Later on Weekends

Acid Bar's hours stretch later than most casual bars: Monday to Thursday it's open from 11:30am until midnight, while Friday extends to 2am. Saturday opens earlier, from 11am, also running until 2am, and Sunday runs from 11am to midnight. On the eve of a public holiday, the bar stays open until 2am as well. Happy hour runs daily — from 5pm to 7pm on Friday and Saturday, and 5pm to 8pm Sunday through Thursday — giving visitors a wide window to catch discounted drinks regardless of which night they choose to come in.

Beyond the Bar

Acid Bar also hosts events beyond its regular nightly programme, including trivia nights, and offers private event bookings for those looking to host something of their own on-site. A rewards programme is available for regulars, and the venue is actively hiring, with a careers page listing open roles.

Recognised and Reachable

The venue carries a TripAdvisor certification and keeps an active social presence on Facebook and Instagram, where much of its event and music lineup gets promoted. For those planning a visit, reservations are best made via WhatsApp, while general enquiries can be sent by email.
