I came here to meet some friends and it was a nice atmosphere. The food was OK and the drinks are a bit expensive side. But sitting outdoors was nice along the shop homes.

Ok, let's start with things have changed in the last few years. This is my first trip to any overseas country in years. I stopped here to get a bourbon, which i did. The location is great because i love this neighborhood. The selection was...not bourbon buy a large cocktail and drink menu. The bartender and waitress were knowledgeable of what they had. The scan code for a menu showed ads. No menu. People were eating snacks, but no menu I could find. Overall I will come back. My view is Singapore has changed! I will do several reviews this week of my once beloved destination. This location is doing better than the other s I have been to. Service has changedMore

Majority of staff are overly rude and angry, and unlike practically any bar/restaurant in Singapore they make you pay upfront for items presumably as they consider you a thief. I hope the staff can find a job they actually enjoy.

Stopped here for a quick drink after visiting Emerald Hill, the bar was lovely and the array of drinks was awesome. The beer was lovely and the guy behind the bar was lovely and friendly.

Water is a basic. We bought bottles and bottles of wine, cocktails.... and a simple request for some water... a basic human right.... cost money... omg. Pour it from the tap.

We visited the bar to have few drinks with my friends. This manager Elise give a negative and rude approach to us. She as well scolded her staff in front of the customers which we think it’s very inappropriate especially being in the customer service....She shouldn’t be in customer service like this if she not happy service customer.

Came to No.5 because it was recommended by my friends for their drinks, however the staff's attitude was super rude and totally uncalled for. She literally just instructed her colleague to cancel our reservation when we were still standing in front of her - this...shows how unwelcoming this bar is. It's disappointing because I had booked this bar to celebrate a joyous occasion yet this unpleasant service totally ruined our moods. Would never return again as I'd rather go elsewhere with a better customer service.More

In these heightened alert times, when we cannot go to No.5 for drinks, I decided to invite my usual drinking buddy to my place and order for delivery. The whole ordering and payment process went smoothly and a veritable feast was delivered to my home....Including the extra chilli that we like! The food did arrive a little later than originally arranged, but they were thoughtful enough to warn me that there was a little delay - nice touch! And the food tasted just like it does when we're at the bar - delicious!More

Simply put, the staff were passive aggressive. They didn’t even bother hiding their “I’d rather not be working now” expression, and made me feel like I was being a hassle with every transaction. I’ve never felt so unwelcome at any place in Singapore. This was...a decent place in the past. But maybe they’re trying to weed out the customers who didn’t look like they would spend as much, given the capacity limits in place now. Came for the martinis, left because I felt like I was an unwelcome burden to them.More
