So happy with the new band from Cuba. My friends and I had a great time. We will be coming back every weekend to watch them. It’s so nice to hear Latin music, and the food was great!

Nice patio right on the water! The drinks are really pricey, but they have a happy hour where you can get 2 for 1, which works out to around $10 per beer or highball. They have mocktails, but they’re not great. The virgin mojito was $15 and really sweet. Really vibey outdoor seating, though.

Alfresco dining overlooking the riverside. **Fish & Chips** The batter here definitely delivers a satisfying crunch, while the fish within remains flaky and sweet. This is, in my opinion, one of the best fish and chips in Singapore. **Fish Fingers** The fish fingers have a lovely golden color and a really nice crunch. I was impressed by the sheer amount of flavor in the fish fingers, as well as how tender they were on the inside, despite being delightfully crispy. **Garlic Prawns** Not only were they succulent, but the prawns were also beautifully infused with garlic. It's an absolute knockout of a combo. **Chicken Bucket of 6** Fried to crisp perfection, but the flavor was very subtle. Perfect if you prefer a more subtle taste. **Bordeaux Blanc Sec White Wine** A mild yet flavorful bouquet, exhibiting hints of citrus, melon, and white flowers.

We had a very disappointing experience at this bar. When we arrived, two of the bouncers stopped us at the entrance and told only us that we had to buy a drink before entering. Meanwhile, everyone else was allowed in without any such condition. We couldn’t help but feel that this was because of our skin color, which was upsetting and unfair. We ended up buying a beer and chose to stay outside, but the whole experience left a bad impression. It felt like we were being singled out and treated differently for no valid reason. This kind of treatment is unacceptable, and we won’t be coming back.

Decided to drop by Cuba Libre at Clarke Quay on a last-minute outing with friends, and it turned out to be a great choice! The place had an amazing vibe with a fantastic live band and lively dance music that got everyone into the groove. While the speaker volume was a bit too loud for my liking, it didn’t dampen the mood, as the crowd was clearly having a blast. Even though I don’t drink or usually go for mocktails, I tried their virgin mojito and loved it! It was super refreshing and generously served in a large glass—definitely a highlight of the night for me. Overall, it was a fun and memorable experience, perfect for an occasional night out. I’m not sure about the low review score of 3.9 given to this bar—most likely it’s based on past experiences—because this bar is definitely deserving of at least a 4.3 rating.
