Offtrack

Offtrack, located at 34 North Canal Road in Singapore’s Chinatown, is a music-centric bar and restaurant founded in January 2022 by the minds behind Darker Than Wax and Ice Cream Sundays. As Asia’s 50 Best Bars 2025 #23, this retro-modern venue pulses with Mid-Century wood, terrazzo floors, vinyl art, and spaceship-esque lighting, complete with a disco ball and rotating installations from local artists. The soundscape is carefully crafted: Offtrack boasts restored Klipsch La Scala speakers once used at NYC’s Loft, delivering immersive, vinyl-driven sets featuring jazz, soul, funk, ambient, and leftfield beats—differentiating it from your typical F&B outlet. Its lineup includes “Kaleidoscope” and “Sound Room” nights, where selectors spin deep cuts and B-sides. The kitchen offers hearty Pan-Asian sharing plates—think burnt chilli dip with sourdough ($12), jackfruit curry ($22), Cauli XO fried rice ($16), and larger mains like fish & clams ($38) and Iberico pork collar ($40). Cocktail-wise, head bartender Joash Conceicao reworks cult classics in a strength spectrum from light to heady. Signature serves include the Dirty Sonic (gin, cucumber, pepper, olive tonic), Tea Milk Punch (gin, cognac, cacao, matcha, whey, vanilla), spicy Paloma ($25), King Cole (bourbon, Fernet Branca, Demerara), Gin Melon Smash, and Appletini . Offtrack keeps its atmosphere unpretentious—casual yet carefully produced, with walk-ins welcome but reservations advised for groups or weekend slots . Friendly service matches the ambience: relaxed yet attentive. In short, Offtrack is more than a cocktail bar—it’s a creative hub where food, sound, design, and community converge. A must‑visit for anyone seeking a cultured, flavourful, and groove-laced night out in Singapore.
