    1880 is a private members only club for dining in the Inter Continental Hotel at 1 Nanson Road next to the historic Singapore River. I went for a private Christmas lunch and didn’t have a chance to check out the place properly. The entry from the street level was typical for a conference hotel with the typical escalator zigzag two flights up. I went up the escalator to the 3rd floor, I was shocked with the darkness and the fake stars that covered the entire low tunnel up. The first sight was from the disco era with round shiny metal doors which swings out from the hinge which is 3/4 of the diameter of the round doors. Just think of the Hobbits! It didn’t get better. After trying to get my eyes adjusted to the dark 3rd floor ride up, I could not open the doors!! No handles and no idea how to open the doors. Banged on the glass doors and trying to remember how the Hobbits opened their doors!! Rescued by a very kind tourist! The foyer wasn’t any better. A really tacky display of towels, pseudo tropical items and etc greeted me. I couldn’t look at them. The item which killed me was the cheap white plastic Christmas tree, which I thought was a fire hazard and had me looking for the emergency exits! The private room was ok. Nothing to write home about. What killed me was the sound system which was way too loud to hear any speeches. The speakers had been blown up by high volume and emitted a very nasty scratchy noise with the Christmas carols. Ugh!! Food was a bit below par. Not what I expected from a private dinning club. Ordered the risotto with shaved truffles and turkey for the main course. Safe and what can go wrong?? I can say that if turkey is cooked western style with stuffing and potatoes , garlic stir fried Brussels sprouts a la Chinese wok was a shocking jar to the taste buds.

    First time here and was definitely blown away by the grandeur of the place. Service crew was absolutely lovely to be around, and we had such a wonderful Saturday afternoon. TV and Robin both helped us very much, which made our dining experience even better. When we accidentally broke a glass, the crew was very attentive and changed a table for us right away. Steak is good. Desserts were amazing. Alcohol selection on point. Great job team 1880.

    That’s a private place and really nice to workshop or negotiate. Pretty dark design, but very rich and comfy. Great atmosphere, very good food. A lot of interesting people around. Serve good cocktails and Impossible foods.

    Super neat place to go if you're a member or if you have friends that are members. Staff is top notch, very attentive and helpful. I loved the drinks menu at the bar, and had a great old fashioned and a nice glass of prosecco. Update - came back for dinner and it’s just as good as the drinks!

    Went to 1880 on a Thursday to listen to jazz music with the girls. The singer, Alemay was amazing! I couldn’t believe she was Singaporean because she had so much soul! What a cool little place! The food was well prepared, atmosphere was very relaxed yet classy, entertainment was popping and drinks were also very good. A good place to go after work for a drink or dinner or even cigar night with the guys. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because the service was a bit slow. We had to flag the staff multiple times to order food, drinks and to pay the bill. It could be due to how busy they were…even still we would return again…especially for Alemay!

    Went with a friend that is a member, not sure if they're are usually quite strict as I am visiting! Fun vibes for a Saturday but wasn't the most packed. They have a terrace in case the music is too loud and you just need a moment. Will go back this weekend to check it out, F1 week is not the best week to set the standard for reviewing !

    Always great to come back. Food is excellent with a large enough menu, wine list is great and imagine sitting at the bar, sipping a cocktail or whiskey and watching the people and let the atmo flow through you. Love this place

    1880 a club sort out hang out place for the rich & famous wanna be to be seen . People who are not members of any of the old gentleman British clubs from the colonial era . A bright modern membersship club which allows non members to use the facilities using standard restaurant practice. Drinks on the higher side comparable to the high end bars in Singapore. Has a great program series getting speakers to talk on different topics .

    The venue is decent, and when there is no Soho House in the city yet, this definitely feels the void. However, I would caution dining at the restaurant. In particular, the steak is extremely mediocre. Lots of chunks of fat so the meat portion was minuscule. The french fries that came with the steak were undercooked, which the waiter told us was the style that they did there. Come here for the vibes and the cocktails. Light snacks are OK too. Salad was decent.

    An upscale private club with cool, swanky interior. Ordered the squid ink tagliatelle, which was delicious and had good wine. Service was also good and responsive. However, was a bit taken aback by the level of cleanliness of the restroom. This was at 10pm but still, would expect better for a place like this.

    1880 Singapore is an exclusive social club with great food, friendly staff, and a great location. It is located in the Fort Canning district, close to the Singapore River. The club has a variety of dining options, including a grill, a bar, and a rooftop terrace. The staff are knowledgeable and attentive, and the food is consistently excellent. 1880 Singapore is a great place to go for a special occasion or a night out with friends.

    If you are a very very VIP rich and have lot of cash to spare ok maybe come here … if not well up to you. stuff rude and impolite they look at yoh like no body. I was sitting on a corner and I was told to move because a client will have a drink there and I could go sit a the counter . Not even please. So I am not a billionaire then I am treated like a inferior ? Really ? I paid with real money. This is very discriminatory place !
