In the UK there are quite a lot of local pubs and bars that we frequent, for relatively inexpensive food and a few drinks in the evening after a hard day at work. From google searches and on here I can see Scruffy Murphy's on the beach, but it looks more like a restaurant than a pub from their website. Are there many local bars in that area to sit down, grab a cold beer and a snack for dinner?
They don't necessarily need to be fancy places, just somewhere cosy. Local haunts would be cool too.
Also - what are the prices in the east coast eating/drinking establishments like? Price of a pint of tiger in Scruffys? I like to eat out locally quite often, and it will really help me work out budgets...
Do you know exactly when it will be closing down?Saint wrote:Scruffy's is bar which does food but I've heard it's closing down soon as they are redeveloping that whole area. Further up the ECP by the 360 cable wakeboarding place there's a new Harry's but it's expensive.
I stay just up the road at Siglap where you have a far bigger choice of eating places and of course my local bar, The Dog and Bone which is about as close as you'll get to a local haunt.

Probably a wise move - a bottle of Tiger beer or Carlsberg at my local hawker is $5.50 and no tax, whereas in most bars around the East Coast a pint will set you back $11-12 and then you usually have to pay GST and service charge on top of that which all adds up (Scruffy Murphys include it in the price though which I prefer)nburge wrote:Thanks a lot, I don't need anywhere too fancy so it sounds like the hawker centres might be a good shout, otherwise I'm looking at a short taxi ride to the siglap centre.
