The Spiffy Dapper

Cocktail bar · Singapore

Half-decent drinks, made by lesser human beings.

Overview

The Spiffy Dapper is an Art Deco cocktail bar at 294 River Valley Road, open every day from 6pm. It has been going since 2013 — “give or take a flood”, as the bar has it — after starting as a hole-in-the-wall in Boat Quay and spending several years in a room on Amoy Street.

Every drink on the list is named for a piece of 1920s slang, and each one, the bar says, is a small fable. It sums up its own approach as “three working theories: balance, structure, the process of art. Mumbo jumbo, but ours.”

Bootstrap Works handles press and editorial enquiries concerning the bar, including its history, its approach to cocktails and the people behind it.
