Thank you to The Secret Mermaid for excellent customer service today. I'd ordered some cocktails from their online delivery menu and accidentally put my friend's old address. Rather than just leave the drinks outside the original house they messaged me, remade the drinks at no extra charge and were so friendly about it. My friend loved the cocktails and I loved the photos she sent me of them! Just wish I had been there to enjoy them too. Once lock down is over and we can safely travel I will come and have a drink with my friend at your bar :)

This is the best cocktail bar i have found in Singapore. Small and intimate, the staff were lovely with a passion for cocktails and very welcoming. Delicious drinks and some unusual recipes. Try The Judgement for some amazing macha foam topping.

The quest to find this bar paid off! It is a quaint speakeasy with unique cocktails and the best truffle garlic aioli fries ever!!!!

I loved this secret little craft cocktail spot and I will follow Frey wherever her craft cocktail skills take her. Great bar with a ton of American distilled vodka, amongst other things. However, that is when I knew I had entered the 1st chamber of cocktail heaven. The 90's hip-hop made me feel like I was home in NY in the late 90's

Lovely intimate bar with a fantastic selection of cocktails! Tried 3 different types of cocktails this evening and all of them were so unique! The area is small but cosy and I was able to enjoy a proper conversation over drinks and the music was not too loud. Their sriracha wings were delicious! Bartender & staff were very welcoming and friendly and did an amazing job with the drinks and they even offered free shots on the house, will be back🧜🏻‍♀️

The only bad thing I find about this place is the lighting and the seats. It is a bit squeezy and dark to see. Maybe some small table lamps or torch light can be passed to customers when they are ordering food. The music was great though.
Food is superb especially the salmon! It is very fresh and oysters too. Bar food are very nice too. The cocktail during happy hour is 14 ++ which I find rather decent because the cocktail is really quality not like some cheap lousy mix. Its a good place for those working in this area for a quick wind down after work.

The space is very limited and small. The other tables kept banging my chair which gets irritating after awhile but it's because of the size of the space. They are able to serve food from salmon samurai until a certain time. They do not have alot of food in the menu. And apparently you can choose from all the alcohol behind you. So many different alcohols. Cool place but very dark lighting. Too dark to see the menu. 2 cocktails (during HH) + 2 salmon bowl = ~$57
Not a very cheap place

I was charged 22++ for a Vodka Orange. I would much rather spend my 20 dollars for a drink in a classy place, like the Fullerton hotel, where the price tag matches the ambiance and staff. Definitely not worth going there. Spend your money elsewhere.

Hi Inge, we're definitely sorry you didn't have a pleasant experience at our bar, however, as we discussed over messaging, there were some unreasonable demands from your side.
1) You refused to pay for the drinks that you ordered as you insisted since you were with a group of men that the men should pay and that "a lady should never pay."
2) When our staff informed you that the folks in your group were settling the bill individually you still refused to pay and yelled obscenities at our staff.
3) When our staff wanted to check with the other members to see how the bill could be resolved, you physically grabbed and refused to let go of our staff member while continuing to scold them with obscenities.
While we would love for everyone to have a great experience at the Mermaid, we need our customers to be cooperative too. The well-being of our staff is our highest priority.
