The 7 Best Rooftop Restaurants in Singapore

Singapore is one of the world’s best-known countries, characterised by its incredible cleanliness, ruthless efficiency and numerous skyscrapers. While it can be expensive to visit, it is also one of the most uniquely interesting countries, not just in Southeast Asia but in the world to do so. The food scene in Singapore is incredible – from hawkers – Singaporean street food markets – to some of the finest dining establishments in Asia, there’s something for everyone in Singapore.

Local restaurant owners have taken advantage of Singapore’s urban nature and opened up restaurants on rooftops, perfect for panoramic views across the city-state. Here are 7 of the best.

Where Are The Best Rooftop Restaurants in Singapore?

1. Abriza Rooftop Restaurant

When the phrase ‘urban sophistication’ comes to mind, Abriza Rooftop Restaurant sums it up perfectly. 

Set in the heart of the city, overlooking numerous other high-rise buildings, there’s nothing quite like watching the streets below as you sip on your favourite drink at Abriza Rooftop Restaurant.

The beauty of Abriza is that you’re not too high up (the fourth floor of the building), for those afraid of heights, while the buildings above and around you offer a sense of safety and security.

Interestingly, the cuisine on offer is Mediterranean rather than Singaporean, so it offers a wide range of classics for all types of diners, from stone-baked pizzas to fresh seafood and deliciously rich and creamy pastas. It’s little wonder that Abriza attracts so many foodies every day.

Address: 32 Tras Street, Level 4 ST Signature, Singapore 078972

Opening Hours: 17:00–00:00 Monday–Sunday

2. Lantern

Perfect for a late lunch or an evening meal, Lantern offers stunning views over Marina Bay and the wider Singaporean skyline.

The bar is a classy venue, framed by an infinity pool, making it the perfect place to enjoy a nice meal and a few drinks, especially as the sun is setting over the Bay.

And as for food, the chefs make sure to keep it classy, too. Expect side dishes like truffle parmesan French fries to accompany mains like a cheese and charcuterie platter, Wagyu sliders, or grilled lobster tacos. The creative touches to the food make this easily one of the best rooftop restaurants in Singapore.

For those who want to experience a more party-like atmosphere, on the last Sunday of every month, Lantern hire a DJ to spin the tunes poolside, while the chefs manage the BBQ, offering the ultimate party atmosphere at one of Singapore’s best rooftop restaurants.

The cuisine offered in the restaurant focuses largely on Japanese options, with authentic Japanese bluefin tuna dry aged in the restaurant’s own dry ager, to make some of the finest sushi in the world, to Wagyu beef and mango sansho yoghurt-based desserts.
