Set within the storied surrounds of Fort Canning Park at METT Singapore, Canning Bar & Lounge is a destination bar-lounge reimagining the contemporary hotel lobby bar experience. Balancing precision and play, calm and energy, it is an ode to contemporary craft where flavour, inventive cocktails, and atmosphere exist in perfect harmony—an essential part of Singapore’s evolving cocktail culture and the METT Singapore experience.
Offering a refined yet relaxed escape above the city’s bustle, the space is designed in dialogue with its natural and historical setting. Rich, velvety green tones, botanical prints, and warm wood textures echo the surrounding greenery, creating a seamless flow from outdoors in. By day, natural daylight fills the space and brings a sense of calm; by night, amber hues and layered soundscapes lend a quietly electric energy, bridging colonial heritage with contemporary artistry. Every detail, from spatial flow to light, scent, and sound, is curated to invite connection and ease.
At its heart, Canning Bar & Lounge is a place designed for people to gather, linger, and return to. The atmosphere evolves throughout the day, shaped by thoughtful service, a curated blend of contemporary beats, and an unhurried social rhythm. The space is anchored by a spacious white marble bar, where craft and conversation converge, with a bold yet graceful cocktail programme driven by creativity, precision, and narrative. Inspired by Singapore’s cosmopolitan edge and Fort Canning’s botanical backdrop, each drink tells a story through texture, aroma, and emotion, complemented by refined bar bites and an all-day dining menu by Michelin-starred Chef Daniele Sperindio.
