    It's a great place to catch up with friends and colleagues over snacks and drinks. The atmosphere is good and the place is packed during peak hours especially now with limited seating . They have a limited food menu although the beer and drinks menu is vast. Visitors usually look for promos as they are fairly priced. Their Signature Chicken Wings have always had rave reviews and I have enjoyed them in the past. The No 5 pizza is good too and of yes the Mini Burgers. The menu is good enough for an informal dinner / catch up with friends. The noise levels climb several notches higher when crowded which is understandable and therefore it maybe difficult to have a meaningful conversation 😅. Still it's a fantastic place, though lately there have been reviewers mentioning that service levels by staff have dropped and this could surely be an area where the management could work on. And before i forget their unique system of chilling beers by stuffing the beer bottles in-between ice 🌟 The food menu and a couple more pictures are from the ICB fb page.

    Really chill place with good bites. Happy hour is the best! Forgot to take a pic of the food. Chicken wings were awesome and crispy. And their ikan bilis and tofu were so yummy too! Great with the drinks.

    We walked around Emerald Hill area and stopped by for a glass of beer. I thought the glass was about 200ml something but it came as 500ml hahaha. Be sure to check the size before you confirm your order. The time was great then, to chill out a hot summer afternoon with a glass of beer at Ice-cold Beer

    Server attended to us at the door, and requested us to check in before seating us. We were seated at the counter. The chicken wings were fantastic! Yummy max. Ikan bilis was a bit spicy, but the sauce was good. Quite a good selection of beer. Guineas draft was smooth and thick to my liking, unlike some places where it is too bubbly. Food and drinks arrived promptly. Bartender also helped to clear our plates and empty glasses promptly. Toilet is sanitised / cleaned every 30mins as indicated on the toilet door. Clean when I used it. Cosy and nice ambience, good for batch up with friends.

    Have been coming here for the wings and a good time. Always having great music and Great service. We were entertained by one of the cutest, nicest and most talented close up magician, Darren! He ended our Saturday night drinks on a high note! Thanks very much Darren! We needed it!

    Chill place to hang out on a Friday. Slightly hidden so not too crowded at times. The 4 cheese pizza has some blue cheese so it really has a deep fermented raw cheese flavour to it. Beer selections are pretty good as well.

    The bar STANDS TRUE to its name, 'Ice-Cold Beer'. A must visit if you love beer. It's walkable from Orchard Gateway, neatly tucked away within a narrow street but can be found in the midst of a couple of shophouses. We arrived at 2pm on a Saturday afternoon, that's when the bar opened, so was the lucky first customer and enjoyed some nice crispy wings, cold beer and a Margarita 🍕 It is open till 3am and so for those looking for a late night beer, this is the place to be!

    Nestled in a very cool street, with shophouses, it’s a chill place to hang out and have beer with friends or solo. It’s got an old vibe bar feel, not a huge variety of bar eats, or beers, but that’s not to say that you can’t spend a decent leisurely time here. We had a fun boozy afternoon and if they say ice cold beer, they mean it! One of the better places in Singapore to have a chilled beer on a warm day! We’ve had lukewarm so many times that this was a nice experience! Food wise, you’re not spoilt for choice, we only tried the wings and the margherita pizza. Wings were crispy and hot, so we enjoyed. The pizza was very basic, on a pre-packaged base, lacked flavour and too cheesy, but went ok with the beer. Overall, I recommend if you’re hanging out with friends and looking for a beer place that remains open till late in the night! Also, they have happy hours from 2-8pm over the weekend and on PH!

    Ordered chicken wings , fish and chips and quesadillas. All at $22++ per portion. Chicken wings were good. Quesadillas and fish and chips were average. HH beers were reasonably priced at 11++

    Love them for their beers.. I mean, Tsingtao on tap! Young male Chinese waiter is great BUT, and here come the BUT… they claim to be a place that offers a dine in experience. We ordered a couple of dishes to share and when it came, we asked for side plates. The answer from the female waitress, we don’t have… as she hurried away. I had to point to the small plate in which the food was served to ask for that and the reply again was, we don’t have. Asked for the manager who came over with 2 wooden bowls that didn’t seem washed or clean. When I told him I just wanted 2 small plates like the kind they served the food on, he said - we are not a restaurant… ok, I thought you were, given the sign saying you offer a “dine in experience”… he then said that they have 3 restaurants and share plates across all 3 restaurants so there weren’t enough plates. Told him we would not be eating then and he could remove the food. Suddenly he offered to check with the kitchen if they had plates that could be spared and appeared with 2 side plates! All very bizarre! If you’re going to offer a dine in experience then side plates are NOT too much to expect!

    Came by for our yearly gathering and ordered a couple of beers to be had - with Sapporo going for $10 a bottle and Heineken Zero at $6.50 a bottle. There’s World Cup playing in the background which was better than the loud music which made it rather hard to have any conversations. Definitely a good place to hang out for a quick drink or two.

    Many bars to select from but the 70s 80s rock music got me...sat at bar and server approached me immediately with a smile and help. Even worked with bartender to answer my questions and yes it was really busy...Now that's good service...bartender was coll and drinks spot on...I got the mini Asahi beers cause better price...price are same as other places... dart boards are traditional standard hard darts which I like. Nice bathrooms which I did not expect in a big beer bar like this, a plus. Come enjoy the selection of beers and drinks.

    After dinner we went for a drinks on this place. service was great and amazing. when we ordered kirin beer, it was a bit off and tasted that the tank wasn't cleaned regularly. There's a rusty,metallic flavour from our first round of beer.

    A lovely little bar on Emerald Hill. Emerald Hill is a little oasis in the middle of Singapore, a great place for after work drinks. Ice Cold has an incredible selection of ales and all at very reasonable prices for Singapore. Happy Hour prices are the best I've seen in Singapore, but be warned your final bill will be subjected to 10% Service Charge and GST tax. Drinks wise I tried the Stella and Tsing Tao draft, both were very good. For food i ordered 'SPAM Fries' which apparently is a 'thing' in Singapore, very tasty. I was there for over two hours and it was a nice experience, would definitely go back.

    Had a quick dinner. Their pizza and chicken wings are our all time favourite. They have 2 levels. Walk in is risky, luckily we got a table. Love the music they played.

  • 5/5 Rebecca Y. 8 months ago on Google • 27 reviews
    Fresh Budweiser beers on tap! Music is always good, old school and chilled. Food tastes great. My favourite is the prawn crackers with sambal. Ask for extra sambal. So so good 😊

    I used to love going to ICB until this evening Shocked to see $24 steak was served on a small SHARING plate as shown in pic. No cutleries as well, was only given toothpicks to eat it. Gave feedback to the staff and he didn’t acknowledge 🤷🏻‍♂️ Service has definitely gotten poorer over the years.

    Love this place for a chill night out. They have a range of cocktails and beer. Food here is also good. Would recommend the fried chicken, topshell as well as tom yum noodles. Ordered the bird's nest martini. It's slightly on the sweet side and you can taste the chrysanthemum and birds nest in it.

    Great place for drinks on Emerald Hill . They do happy hour till 8 pm

  • 5/5 Oyo D. 1 year ago on Google
    Apart from the awesome food and atmosphere, I was truly amazed by the awesome magic tricks by Jerryl! First time encountered on a bar having a magician, great ice-breaker to add on the relaxing mode. Even better to have him (if possible) on board more frequent, this makes the Ice-Cold Beer Bar more unique..well done, great idea from the management! 👍🤩👏🏻

  • 5/5 Zed T. 4 months ago on Google
    An amazing place to meet old friends and have a good time. Food was amazing and drinks were well priced in my opinion. Though be prepared to spend a bit more than you would expect because you would want to stay longer for some of the games like darts and pool you can play here.

  • 4/5 Dennis W. 4 months ago on Google
    A super familiar place for many people to have a beer over a lazy weekend! Food is pretty much what it’s always been and so are the beer taps. Services is hit-and-miss (usually misses) so if you hadn’t much expectations expect for a simple pub with some nice beers you’ll do ok

  • 5/5 Anita S. 9 months ago on Google
    Perfect authentic Singapore tavern to enjoy some historic and nostalgic atmosphere as opposed to the shiny high-tech Singapore surrounding the area. Emerald Hill rd is a must to wander the streets and then come to this little place for reasonably priced beer and food. Loved it!

    Feb 2023: great place for beers and the chicken wings! Be sure to reserve a table as it gets crowded! Love the happy hour deals!

  • 3/5 Teo W. 1 year ago on Google

    I last stepped into ICB 16 years ago. Had been a regular when I was in my late 20s. Feels so good to be back! The songs still rock, the food still as good and the best part is, the vibe is still similar. Would definitely come back soon. Please remember to play Fortune Faded by Red Jpt Chilli Peppers as usual, 16 years ago! 😁

  • 5/5 R C L. 1 year ago on Google
    Great bar with a relaxing atmosphere. Easy going, great beer to start a great evening or have the last beer before the nap. The crowd is different. Perfect location in the city centre just off Orchard Road in a typical Singaporean House. The beer promotion posters on the walls show how long this place has been around. - Worth visiting for sure...

  • 5/5 Pastellex 2 years ago on Google
    I was there with my girlfriend on last friday and the waitress by the name of Kinky served us. She's super friendly, nice and approachable. She will always walked around the tables making sure she clears the empty plate and once our drinks were done, she served us iced water without even asking for it. An employee like her need to be well treated, she definitely deserves it! ;)

  • 1/5 JJ Ang (. 2 years ago on Google
    Used to come here once or twice bi-monthly but recently went back and the service was getting worst, orders were forgotten, finger food was over oily and terrible, and drinks are mistaken and served wrongly. After ordering pizza for sharing, they mentioned they do not have small plates, nor fork or spoons for sharing, all of us needed to use fingers to pinch the steaks. Food and drinks are served probably roughly 25 mins of waiting, drinks up first, 30 mins later first plate of food, then after another 20 mins another plate of food. Overall, quite a terrible experience.

  • 2/5 Andrew C. 2 years ago on Google
    It seems to be a well-loved place, but we were there when the central kitchen is closed so we had small dishes. The dishes are pretty nice actually but the way we were served and we saw how rude the staff were to other customers leaves us bad impression. Generally not a good place to entertain corporate clients.

    The magic show was INCREDIBLE! Jerryl we are still so bemused by your tricks. We came for drinks and they were well poured and reasonably priced.

    This beer place is great for hanging out with friends. The atmosphere is chill, with plenty of seating and cool music. They have a wide selection of beers, from light lagers to hoppy IPAs. The staff are friendly and helpful, always ready to suggest a new brew to try. Whether you're a beer enthusiast or just looking for a fun night out, this place has something for everyone. With its relaxed vibe and tasty drinks, it's the perfect spot to unwind after a long day.
