9 Best Happy Hour Drink Promotions in Singapore (2023)

If only the coldest pints and the stiffest drinks with the lowest prices during happy hour will do, then you’ve landed on the right article.

Let’s be honest, regardless of venue, all alcoholic beverages in Singapore are expensive. This is mainly due to Singapore’s alcohol tax (S$88 per litre for hard liquors and wines, S$60 per litre for beers and ciders) that is charged on top of the 7% Goods and Services Tax; which is why if you’re planning a night out, it is pertinent to conduct research for a convenient place that caters to groups and serves good drinks at affordable prices — or risk running up a high tab.

Take it from someone who has spent years searching for the best happy hour deals, these are the ones that are conveniently located and give you the best bang for your buck.

Read on to find out where these 9 happy hour bars and restaurant promos are and get ready to be amazed at how much you’ve been overpaying for your drink.

Updated as of 22 March 2023. Best happy hour drink promotions are subject to change without prior notice, so we will not be held accountable in the event of these modifications. The legal age to buy and consume alcohol in Singapore is 18 years old. Please drink responsibly.

It is always a happy hour at Al Capone’s. Depending on the outlet, prices for a pint of Guinness draft beer start from just S$8.80 nett, Heineken beer tower from S$39 nett and hard liquor bottles from S$85 nett onwards. To top it all off, these prices are inclusive of all prevailing taxes!

3. Stickies

Address: Keng Cheow Street, Dhoby Ghaut, Sungei Kadut and Aljunied Road
Tel: +65 6443 7564‬, +65 6970 0390, +65 6970 3880 or +65 6970 5664
Happy hour time slots: 2pm onwards
Website: https://www.stickiesbar.com/ 

Happy hour at Stickies works a little differently, in the sense that the prices here go by the time of day. The earlier you start, the cheaper certain drinks are. For instance, prices begin from S$3++ when the clock strikes 3pm, S$4++ when it is 4pm, and so on.

A half pint of beer or a glass of housepour liquor with your choice of mixer goes for S$1.50++ at 3pm, and prices increase a dollar every hour. Similarly, a full pint goes for S$3++ at 3pm.

Sunday to Thursday
Liquor shots start from S$3++ at 3pm per shot or glass, S$28++ per jug or S$75++ per bottle. Wine and soju shots begin from S$3++ and S$3.50++ respectively. 

Friday, Saturday, eve of Public Holiday
Meanwhile, as the week draws to a close, soju will cost you S$4++ per shot or S$16++ per bottle.

But if those aren't your elixir styles of choice, there are other drink promotions that include S$9.50++ for a pint of Guinness, S$50 for a 3-litre beer tower, a party platter of 20 shots for S$19++ and more.

Promotions

Go all out with Stickies in their 8th birthday bash with an all-out 1-for-1 promo on all alcoholic drinks throughout March and April! No minimum spend is required and there is no limit on the number of bottles ordered either.

For example, you can get two bottles of Vodka Grey Goose for S$135 or two Heineken towers for as little as S$58. These sound like pretty solid deals to us.

Do note, however, this promo is valid for March and April babies only! So if you have any friends turning a year older soon, you can strongly hint/suggest Stickies as a birthday venue. 🙊

In honour of St. Patrick's Day, drown yourself in non-stop, happy hour Guinness beer pints from 3pm to 6pm everyday, from 27 February to 2 April! And if you're not convinced yet, beer pints go for cheap at only S$8 per pint (with minimum three pints) and S$6 per pint (with minimum nine pints). 

So if you do the math, that only adds up to S$24 for three Guinness beer pints and S$54 for nine Guinness beer pints, which are pretty affordable all things considered. Jio more friends along to split the cost and the price per pint of beer becomes even more worth it. 🤩

💡For context, the average pint of beer in Singapore typically costs between S$10 to S$15.

No.5 Emerald Hill Cocktail Bar may be best known for their 1-for-1 soju martinis at S$29++ all day long. There are also other drinks like house pour liquor with a mixer of your choice. 

And of course, it'd be remiss not to try their signature No. 5 Cocktail made with Grey Goose vodka, Bacardi Carta Oro, Apricot Brandy, pineapple and orange juice, and more for S$38++ per glass. Although it's a little pricey, but that's what you pay for quality.

Otherwise, go for their drinks, but stay for the delectable bar bites. Be sure to try their shrimp-paste marinated chicken wings during your visit. Crispy, umami-packed and served piping hot, perhaps, one of the best along Orchard Road.

Out of their three outlets, we must confess that their Alexandra Technopark branch has some of the best promos at the moment --- featuring 3L House Draft beer towers for S$42++ and 3L Stella Artois beer towers for S$52++ along with their housepour bottle bundles start from S$88++.

1-for-1 bundles (S$15++)
Not to mention, they have amazing 1-for-1 promos for housepour spirits (bourbon, vodka, whisky, run & gin), beer pine glasses (500ml), housepour red/white wine glasses for only S$15++ per pair.

But if those aren't enough, their housepour beer bucket (3 bottles) for S$15++ should compensate nicely.
