When it comes to nightlife in Clarke Quay, our usual few haunts include the same old clubs and arcade bars. But with the slew of restaurants, pubs, and new tenants popping up every so often, there’s truly more than meets the eye at this bustling hotspot, and here are some hidden gems and new finds that are worth exploring:

1. Holey Moley

Filled with tongue-in-cheek references to pop culture and our local icons, some of the holes are modelled after Jaws (Gone Fishin’), E.T. (E.Tee), and Game of Thrones (The Iron Throne), and there’s even a completely dark room with glow-in-the-dark chess and Pac Man-inspired holes!

Holding its own against the gorgeous decor, the food and drinks served at The Caddyshack bar are just as impressive and out-of-this-world. Think pink burgers with a syringe full of gooey cheese, a 3-pound monster burger, a 1-metre long pizza, and outrageous cocktails served with crunchy Nerds candy, gummy skewers, Pop Rocks, and candy floss!

There are 6 of these tables available in the bar!

Each game allows up to 4 players!

The tables light up beautifully whenever you score, which instantly makes the game extra exhilarating. To spice it up further, there are 3 different gameplays for you to choose from – Combo Out, Challenge, and Count Up – and each comes with instructions to guide you through!

Once you get peckish, treat yourself to their wide selection of handcrafted food items and cocktails! Offering mains, bar bites, and hand-rolled pizza, recommended items include their signature Beef Sliders ($23), Beer Battered Fish & Chips ($28), Wagyu Beef Hand-rolled Pizza ($22), and Fish Bites ($12).

Our personal favourite was the Beef Sliders, which were bite-sized honest-to-goodness, no-frills burgers made of tender ground beef, caramelised onions, blue cheese, and cornichons. Make sure to give the Japanese-inspired Wagyu Beef Pizza a try if you’re the adventurous sort though! Sweet and savoury at the same time with a Japanese wine cream sauce base, it came topped with a generous heap of bonito flakes and seaweed.

Great for those who can handle their alcohol well, PONG’s cocktails are also satisfyingly strong – especially the Rosemary, a saccharine original concoction that uses vodka, coconut-flavoured rum, egg white, and a couple of other secret ingredients.

Some of these include prawns, squid, sausages, short ribs, and fatty beef cuts like the hump and rump cap, which was cooked till medium rare with a delightfully pink centre – in other words, juicy, tender, and flavourful.

They take their meat very seriously as well, seasoning almost everything with just rock salt so that diners can taste the natural flavour of the meat, and using only grass-fed beef and lamb because they contain more nutrients and less fat.

To keep the meat sweats at bay, pair them with a large variety of greens and sides from the free-flow Western and Chinese salad bar!

They’re also one of the few bars that offer Hoegaarden Rosée towers!

While they have an extensive menu for you to choose from, some of their must-try items include the Burnt Bee Hoon ($14), a crispy, pancake-like fried vermicelli dish topped with a generous amount of squid and prawns that managed to recreate that fragrant wok hei aroma.
