The Otherside

The Otherside is a deliberately hard-to-find rooftop bar tucked into a corner of Erskine Road, right between Chinatown and Telok Ayer, just beside Maxwell Food Centre. Behind its discreet entrance is a rustic, plant-filled rooftop terrace strung with lights, alongside an indoor counter where regulars chat with staff about what's pouring.

The line-up rotates constantly: six taps that change weekly plus two fridges of rotating bottles, spanning hazy IPAs, sours, and small-batch natural wines from independent producers around the world. It's built for groups looking to camp out on the terrace as much as solo drinkers propping up the counter.

Reservations are recommended for groups, and the space also books out for private events.
