Expensive beer in bars 🍻
Dialogue in a bar:
— Here’s your beer! Enjoy.
— Thanks! But I gave you 20 dollars, can I get change?
— One pint costs 20 dollars. Welcome to Singapore!
A lot of things in Singapore feel expensive, and beer in bars is no exception. During this 2023 visit, I saw a pint of craft beer for S$32. Prices change, and cheaper places can still be found, especially during happy hour.
If you decide to party on a budget with a beer 🍺 and pizza 🍕, you may still be disappointed. The pizzas I tried were often expensive and not always to my taste; at the time, even a small one could start at about 20 SGD.
