If CQ had a heartbeat, it would thrum to the sound of clinking glasses, lively chatter, and music spilling from its venues into the night. It’s the stomping ground of the city’s night owls, with the world-famous nightclub Zouk and endless tasty options to match any mood.
Need a mid-week pick-me-up? We’ve got just the thing. We’re teaming up with CQ @ Clarke Quay for an exclusive bar hop on March 26, taking you through four standout spots, each serving up signature cocktails, savoury bites, and a vibe that guarantees a night to remember. Keep reading for all the juicy details.
Circle the date because this spirited bar crawl is happening on Wednesday, March 26, from 7.30pm to 10.30pm. Of course, if you’re just getting into the groove by then, nothing’s stopping you from keeping the party going.
Get ready to hop your way through four of CQ’s hottest spots. At sundown, dual-concept Home trades its coffees for cocktails and live music, proving that great company and drinks are all you really need in this minimalist space. RedTail Bar by Zouk dials up the energy for those who are here to play, with craft cocktails and plenty of fun. For island living meets jungle party vibes, Chupitos prides itself as the city's first shooters bar, serving up shots with names as cheeky as the crowd. And for those who like their nightlife with a little theatre, Kopi and Spells casts its charm with tipples served in smoky cauldrons, all within a space that fuses Singaporean and South Asian flavours with a hint of magic.
Let’s talk about the real MVPs of the night: the booze and bites. At Home, you’ll be sipping on a velvety Yakult soju cocktail while crunching on golden chicken tendons and squid fritters.
Over at RedTail Bar by Zouk, take your pick from four signature cocktails, including the striking Rhythm Blues, the zesty Margarita Granada, the dangerously smooth Long Beach Iced Tea, and the utterly sinful Jolly Rancher, all best paired with either two pounds of crispy, flavour-packed chicken wings or a deliciously loaded Pinsa Prosciutto.
Kopi and Spells will have you enchanted with the 50 Shades cocktail, a pink vodka sour with a raspberry liqueur kick, served in a cauldron because, let’s be honest, we could all use a little extra drama in our drinks. Pair it with spice-laden tikka wings or kopi fries, and you’ve got an experience that’s nothing short of magical.
And finally, Chupitos is amping up the fun with the fiery Strawberry Shortcake shooter – a heady mix of vodka, strawberry cream liqueur, and flame. Then sink your teeth into a wasabi prawn taco that delivers a punch of flavour in every bite.
Each guest will also score a Time Out tote bag filled with goodies and bottled water to keep you hydrated throughout the bar hop.
Tickets are priced at $68 per person. Planning to attend with friends? Get the two-person bundle at $118, or a four-person bundle at $218. With limited slots available, you’ll want to snap yours up before they’re gone. Get your tickets to the CQ @ Clarke Quay x Time Out Bar Hop here.
That’s not all – we’ve also got another CQ @ Clarke Quay x Time Out Bar Hop with four other bars in the pipeline, so watch this space for more updates on the next one soon.
