Nestled at 118 Telok Ayer Street in Singapore’s CBD, Bitters & Love has carved out a distinctive niche since its founding in 2012. The venue occupies a charming shophouse-style space—polished yet unpretentious—with timber tables, marble bar surfaces and subtle industrial touches, offering a relaxed atmosphere for quality cocktails. What sets this bar apart is its deep focus on bitters. They produce many of their own house-bitrers, which play a starring role in the cocktail menu: from “Before and After” flavor transformations (where adding a dash of their bitters changes the profile) to bespoke drinks tailored to your palate. The menu is playful and modern: you’ll find local-inspired creations such as a “Kaya Toast Cocktail” that nods to Singaporean breakfast culture, as reviewers have highlighted. The bar operates Wednesday through Saturday from about 18:00 to 24:00 (closed Sunday, Monday, Tuesday) so it’s ideal for a late-evening stop rather than early dinner. Prices sit at around S$28–30 for a cocktail, with some larger sharing drinks or premium options climbing higher. While the space is intimate, it is well-equipped for groups and offers attentive service. The bartenders are experienced and happy to guide you through flavour preferences, making this a good place both for cocktail aficionados and those simply looking for a stylish relaxed drink. The food menu is modest but respected—bar snacks like beef cubes or tacos appear in reviews. In short: Bitters & Love is a standout choice in Singapore’s vibrant cocktail scene for anyone wanting a thoughtfully crafted drink in warm, intimate surroundings. Arrive early or reserve (especially for weekends) to secure a table and enjoy the full experience.
