    Having read some of the comments here... I concluded that - This is NOT a place for everyone! First, the service is outstanding! It'll will make you feel like a celebrity! (If you are up to it!) Yes, there's NO MENU!! The lead bartender will ask you questions so that the drink is specially 'personalised' according to your mood and preference. Every drink is unique. Here, mixology is an ART form! They want you to appreciate every single thought and attention given to the process in making the drink for you. Thus the price. This is NOT a place where you can order your usual Bloody Mary/Long Island Tea/Gin Tonic etc!!! (Even a regular gin-based drink is never as simple as just a mix of gin & tonic!) The club is owned by Japanese, managed by Japanese and thus there is a strong sense of Japanese social culture. Come here with an open mind! (Like as if you are in Japan) Be open to understand the other culture instead of expecting how the bar/service 'should be' like! Only then, will you be able to enjoy the atmosphere and appreciate the attention given to you and the drinks.

    To really enjoy the experience Either go alone or go with just one other person close to you. Enjoy the quaint and serene vibe of the bar. Have a deep conversation, have a drink. Feel the actual vibe of a japanese bar in Singapore

    TLDR: - If money is not a concern, feel free to drop by for a drink, but don't come for the food. Background: - Dropped by for a visit on a Monday night as this place was recommended by a friend of mine. Apparently, we have different reviews for the bar. :) Environment: Good: - Cosy ambiance and soothing music. Bad: - We had a big table for a group of 5. The sofa, despite its luxurious look, is uncomfortable for one's back. The table height is also uncomfortable for dining. - The corridor is too narrow if those bar sits are occupied (wide sofa). Food: - Too salty and oily for the chicken karaage, the meat is also not tender enough. - Uni cream pasta is oily, but tastes okay. Drink: - Manhattan tastes great, one of the better ones I've had in Singapore. - I've tried three of the five cocktails from the tea series, not a huge fan of the taste, but my friends like them. :) Price: - Over-priced without any detailed breakdown. Rating: - I'm on the fence of giving 2 or 3 stars, but eventually choose the lower end because of the overwhelming positive rating.

    Super excellent service all around - was really impressed as soon as I stepped into the front counter. A nice, warm towel was also provided upon arrival. It’s a very comfortable and cosy environment for small to medium group sizes. Light acoustic, instrumental music is played on the background while you enjoy the drink on a large leather couch. There’s no menu for the drinks at all, everything is bespoke literally to your tastes and preferences by speaking to the bartender. There’s a huge whiskey selection too. It’s a very sophisticated area for whiskey, run by a Japanese and oozes the Japanese culture right from the service standards to the decor. Prices are on the much higher end but for the experience it’s definitely worthwhile!

    One of the best places in SG to visit for cocktails and whiskey selectin. The ambience is very cozy with chesterfield leather couches and instrumental music. The staff is exceptionally humble, respectful and attentive. You dont need a menu to order a cocktail, staff will customize your drink based on ur taste and imagination. A must visit.

    Cozy little whiskey lounge. Was a big fan of the ambience / allows for great conversation. Just thought the price point was a little crazy for the whiskey… approx 60-150$ per serving. Food was def lacklustre so just go for the drinks :)

    Absolutely perfectly balanced cocktails. The atmosphere is comfortable and inviting with the most comfortable chairs that I have ever sat in at a bar.

    Discovered this place from a friend's recommendation. One of those hidden bars in Singapore. I've walked that atreetba hundred times but never knew about this place. What strikes you first when you walk in a an extreme level of plush richness. The couches, the bar lounge chairs (yeah not bar stools, but cigar armchairs right at the bar), the butler service and the warm towel they give you all enhance the rich experience. This place has no menu. The bartenders are authentic Japanese and they make you a fully customized drink - from the size of the ice to the shape of the glass - exactly as you want. The Old Fashioned, Whiskey Sour and Martini we tried were exquisite. Kudos to the bartender for it. Really delightful. The chicken nuggets were brilliant too.. The only issue is that its extremely pricey. So go only rarely.

    They make really good classics with uncommon liquor. Great service from the Japanese staff, but pretty lackluster one from the local wait staff. Lounge chairs are comfortable and made for long conversations over several glasses of cocktails.

    It was certainly an interesting place. I had an ok experience overall but might not want to go back? When you first enter the very very discreet entrance, there is a reception area that is made up to look like a shoe store? Everything is dark, dingy and somewhat old-looking which is probably what they were going for. Then you are lead to your seat in the actual bar area. In that space, there’s a huge wooden bar that runs from the front all the way to the back, and there were HUMONGOUS leather chairs all along the bar. The first thing that struck me was how narrow the front part of the bar was. All the customers had to walk through that part and basically crab walk or squeeze part all the chairs that were there. It’s even squeezier if there were people in those chairs. I was seated in one of those chairs. And the whole time I was there, there would be people moving behind me and nudging my chair. I don’t blame them, it’s that narrow. Plus, there really isn’t any space for your legs under the counter if you’re above 1.6m tall so it wasn’t really a comfortable night. There also aren’t any bag hooks so if you have to bring a bag, make sure it’s small. The other thing that I didn’t really like was the colour. The entire place seemed to be in different shades of brown. Everything just seemed so monotonous. It’s a very serious place. And somehow seems more for people who want to seriously discuss things or seriously study the drinks they are being served. There’s no real fun vibe or chill laid-back casualness or romantic intimate atmosphere at all. Just quiet seriousness. Really good if you want to drink alone. Food and service was top-notch but be aware that there is no drink menu or price. However, the bartenders are more than willing to let you know how much something is if you ask.

    too lazy to read the menu? this is the place for you. they offer bespoke (custom made) drinks for you by talking with a bartender and telling what you like and don't. strong, sweet, sour, vodka based or other. they will create a drink for you BUT great drinks come with the price. I had 3-drinks for $121 SGD.

    A special place to be at, they make sure you are well taken care of and they also put a ton of pride and effort into their drinks. An impeccable experience for sure! Surprisingly the food prices here are very fair with a few intresting options. Would be back again for sure! 🥃✨

    Atmosphere is great, very cozy place, nice and high standard service. The drinks are nice, however I’ll say it’s less creative. The price is also on the highest range - 28-38sgd per cocktail. Worth to visit one time for the experience.

    As the name implies, the interior of the place was truly sophisticated, classy and elegant, with an ambience of privacy and exclusivity. The seats were comfortable and service level was impeccable. However, prices are not clearly indicated in the menu and had to be asked. The cocktails price range is between $28-38, while whiskey glasses could range from $60-$80 per glass, despite being not of the extremely rare type, and so it is very overpriced compared to other exclusive type bars in the city. This is definitely a place one would go to grab one drink for the experience at best, as a whole night out here would surely break the bank to say the least 🤣 The overall Japanese style vibe of the place was very authentic and would definitely appeal to patrons too.

    I love this place, one of the best bars in all of Asia. The people are talented professionals, and the drinks are on the razors edge of innovation, perfection. I did all bourbon based drinks, gave challenges to the bartendes, and every drink nailed it 100% beyond expectations 👏👏👏

  • 5/5 FluffyUnicornz 4 months ago on Google • 45 reviews
    This is one of my favourite drink amongst the bars. Old fashioned- mixed in their own barrels. In the past, they have a menu, my last visit, they’ve removed the menu. Do some research on names or drinks you usually enjoy to describe to the bartender. They do have ocassional seasonal fruit cocktails too! Or if you’re familiar, let them know the spirits, flavours and if you want it sparkling. The rest will be up to them. They do have a menu for Japanese sandwich/pasta. Do try :)

    Stepped into D.Bespoke, feels like you are taken away from Singapore's bustle into an intimate Ginza-style speakeasy. The usual menu's thrown out the window - VERY much welcomed, to be completely fair. Instead, they take your mood and palate through an experience, whipping up cocktails as unique as you can suggest or imagine. They focus much more on your taste preferences to make concoctions that you'll love. In a nutshell, D.Bespoke serves sophistication catered to your whims.

    What a great speak easy style whisky bar with tranquil atmosphere. They serve high quality independent bottled whisky and tasty “Manhattan”

  • 4/5 Sandy S. 1 year ago on Google
    It is our first time here at a Japanese bespoke bar in sg. Their staffs are all Japanese. Impeccable service except for one particular waiter in blue. We asked him for cocktail recommendations, he says all are nice, period. He just refuse to recommend anything popular. So I simply ordered a cocktail that looks nice from their IG. Later, I went to take a photo at the bar with my cocktail and he didn’t allow me to, saying there will be guests or something but there’s no one at all! I mean, I wouldn’t wanna take a photo at the bar if it’s full of patrons right. Common sense 🙄 pretty distasteful I must say being served by this dude! I mean, shouldn’t you be happy someone is taking photo and posting online for YOUR PUBLICITY? I’m not sure if this is their culture, but I felt he’s quite rude and unfriendly? Thankfully, later we were being served by a lady and another guy in white. They are super attentive and recommended us food as well. Uni pasta wasn’t too bad. Beef sando is okay. Their fruity cocktails are light, refreshing and delicious! Lastly, when we called for the bill, there’s no receipt at all. Same rude dude just simply asked for our card. We only knew the pricing after the card got swiped. Bill came up to $500++ for 4 pax. Overall, I would recommend or might even return if this rude dude improve on his customer service !

    D.Bespoke is on the pricier side but you’re paying for top level service and a superior delivery of drinks. Food wise I enjoyed the sandos a lot, especially the pork katsu sandwich. Don’t sleep on their shochu based cocktails!

  • 5/5 Penny C. 3 years ago on Google
    Superb service, really bespoke. Delicious and original cocktails, generous amounts of liquor 🍹🍸 🥃. Food and tapas were perfect. Great ambience, classy setting, quality furniture pieces, great experience. Not tacky at all! Music is at the right volume. Perfect place for a evening wind down. 8 pax spending about $1200 for a completely comfortable evening. Oh! And the Japanese bathroom!

  • 5/5 Steve 1 year ago on Google
    They have nice cocktails.. Just let them know what you're looking for or what liquor you want and what taste you like and they will make it for you. There is no real menu per say

  • 4/5 Sze Wee T. 2 years ago on Google
    Was introduced to this bar by colleague. Seating is along the long bar and you have a view of their selections across the length of the wall. There are quite a selection of international and special Japanese customised whiskey. Service is good, there are no menu for the whiskey as the price per shot is on bottom of the bottle.

    Super Japanese atmosphere ☺️ Loved the drinks as they’ll make what you like. Mine was Japanese grape + gin. Super wow, unique flavour & you can’t really find similar cocktails elsewhere. Excellent service too.

  • 3/5 vincent b. 8 months ago on Google
    Nice interior design and cool looking Japanese whisky bar. However this place is way too expensive even for Singapore! $70 for one non-alcoholic fruit juice and G&T. No drinks menu available, which is weird, and stale atmosphere. Friendly service staff. Nothing really bad to say but not for us and wasn't a fun bar.

  • 5/5 Saki A. 5 months ago on Google
    Best cocktails in SEA! They customize the drinks based on your taste. The service is five stars, friendly and incredibly attentive.

  • 4/5 Malcolm K. 2 years ago on Google
    I enjoyed the experience. Old world charm. Great service, proper and friendly. Love the details / attention to them. Special drinks that are interesting. I especially admired the explanations. Cozy and charming ambiance matching the service. If you are seated along the bar, i am had a personal debate on wanting to interact with a friend but also want to lean back into the comfortable-ness of the chair, as its hard to have both. This was my only "complaint". Parking is avail at Pinnacle nearby but careful crossing the busy street. i was so in awe and enjoying myself, I missed taking pictures.
