Yardbird Southern Table & Bar is a Southern American comfort-food restaurant and bar located at The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore — notably the only Yardbird outpost outside the US. The restaurant is built around farm-fresh produce and time-honoured family recipes, with a tagline that says it all: "Where the juiciest fried chicken is tradition."
The menu leans into classic Southern comfort dishes, including Chicken & Waffles made from a 100-year-old heritage recipe, indulgent Lobster Mac & Cheese, a 14-day bourbon-aged US Prime Ribeye, Smoked Pork Ribs in BBQ sauce, and The Great American Burger. On weekends, guests can share family-sized Blueberry Pie Pancakes and signature crispy fried chicken by the waterfront. The bar side of the venue pours vibrant cocktails alongside one of Asia's largest collections of American whiskeys, gins and beers.
Spread across two levels with waterfront views, Yardbird offers casual dining downstairs and a bar atmosphere upstairs, plus three private dining spaces for intimate celebrations. Pet-friendly al fresco seating is available, and the restaurant has been recognised with the 2023–2024 TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice Awards, listings in the Tatler Dining Guide for 2022, 2023 and 2024, and one star from Wine & Dine Singapore's Top Restaurants: House of Stars.
Tucked into The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands, Yardbird Southern Table & Bar brings a slice of the American South to Singapore's waterfront — and it's the only Yardbird location operating outside the United States. The restaurant's guiding idea is simple: farm-fresh produce, time-honoured family recipes, and comfort food built for sharing.
Yardbird's calling card is its fried chicken, built around Lewellyn's Fine Fried Chicken, served crisp and signature-style. The kitchen's Chicken & Waffles draws from a 100-year-old heritage recipe, while the Show & Dine menu features a Theatre Special pairing Lewellyn's Fried Chicken with spiced watermelon and a fresh buttermilk biscuit. Alongside the chicken, the menu leans into other Southern and American staples: Lobster Mac & Cheese, a 14-day bourbon-aged US Prime Ribeye, Smoked Pork Ribs finished in BBQ sauce, and The Great American Burger.
On weekends, tables fill with family-sized Blueberry Pie Pancakes and the restaurant's signature crispy fried chicken, enjoyed right on the waterfront. The Feast of Plenty offering leans further into that communal spirit, with family-style sharing plates like Scallop & Chorizo Pasta and a towering Bourbon Bacon Chocolate Cake to finish.
Upstairs, Yardbird's bar delivers vibrant cocktails alongside one of Asia's largest collections of American whiskeys, gins and beers. Seasonal specials rotate through, including summer's Golden Orchard — a fruit-forward pour with apricot brandy and ginger beer — and the Sunset Spritz, a Zero Edit beverage brightened with Lyre's Italian Orange and lemon juice. The last Friday of each month brings The Yardbird Session, with live DJ beats and themed cocktails to close out the week.
For more intimate occasions, Yardbird offers three private dining spaces with classic Southern hospitality. Day to day, the dress code stays relaxed — T-shirts, polo shirts, jeans, chinos, sundresses and skirts are all welcome, though swimwear, robes and hotel slippers are not permitted. The al fresco seating area is pet-friendly, making it an easy stop for guests bringing their dog along for a waterfront meal.
Yardbird has picked up recognition from the 2023–2024 TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice Awards, listings in the Tatler Dining Guide across 2022, 2023 and 2024, and one star from Wine & Dine Singapore's Top Restaurants: House of Stars. Regular promotions include the Ultimate Duo: Burger & Brew (rotating burgers paired with Brewlander craft beers), a Set Lunch Menu, and gourmet takeaway via GrabFood featuring the fried chicken, smoked pork ribs and mac & cheese for self-collection.
With a full spread of menus — lunch, dinner, brunch, bar bites, vegetarian, dessert, children's and a dedicated beverage list — Yardbird caters to a wide range of appetites and occasions, all with a distinctly Southern warmth.
