Fancy drinks or dinner with a killer view? Here’s our pick of sky-high restaurants and rooftop bars in Singapore for wining and dining in style
Call us biased, but we think Singapore offers some of the best skyline views in the world (all the better to watch those NYE fireworks)! Bars like Ce La Vi and Lavo atop Marina Bay Sands are often the go-to for sunset drinks with amazing city views but what about when you want a different outlook? Smoke & Mirrors has unrivalled views of the Padang, Dusk Restaurant & Bar affords sunset views from Mount Faber while rooftop bars like LeveL33, Lantern Bar and VUE offer a different aspect that is equally stunning. So head over to one of Singapore’s best rooftop bars or sky-high restaurants when you want to enjoy an evening admiring the stunning views!
