Yesterday evening we went to BQ/CQ and while walking across we did spot Juban Stand, until then we didnt even know its in BQsundaymorningstaple wrote:You can't go wrong with either the Dog & Bone or The Juban Stand. Both owned & operated by a group of damned fine westerners!
If you haven't figured it out yet, one of them is our very own Saint.

Whilst I like the pub, I don't find it particularly social; in fact, it seems very cliquey. Despite going there so many times, the bar staff never seem to acknowledge me. There seems to be a core group of patrons who seem to all know each other, and I don't see anyone trying to make an effort with anyone else. All of this is fine by me, but I don't know why people are saying it's a social pub, as I found the opposite. Who knows, maybe I'm not sexy enough!
Absolutely good recommendation. Good place to see a bit of Whiskey Tango as well.rajagainstthemachine wrote:The prince of wales in Dunlop Street Little India. I'm kinda a regular there by now.
*sigh*
It is an unpretentious place, every one is laid back and there is a band playing almost everyday.I've gotten to know some very nice people over there.
Sorry to hear about that but I do find it strange you weren't made to feel welcome as normally new people are made very welcome and usually end up crawling out of the bar at some unearthly hour of the morning. The Dog has been going through some staffing issues recently with a lot of staff coming and going which isn't ideal but that's now been sorted.RoastBeefBaron wrote:I've lived near Siglap for over year now.

It's been there 30 years. At one point I lived about 1200m away from it.Brah wrote:Does anyone actually go there?offshoreoildude wrote:The Yard, River Valley Road.
Went there once, years ago, no one there but us, not even sure we stuck around for a drink, was a pretty weird vibe.
I'm surprised it stays in business, I've never seen anyone go in or come out of there.
being pretty near MS, I have seen it, but never got tempted to walk in, even when I was staying further up River Valley Near GWC !! 30 years ? WOW !!!!!!!!!!JR8 wrote:It's been there 30 years.

And yet until today I'd never even heard of it!
