Set your destination to Singapore Botanic Gardens, Nassim Gate Visitor Centre, rather than the postal address alone.

  • From the drop-off point, walk straight through the Visitor Centre, keeping the Gardens Shop on your right. Continue towards the waterfall, then follow the path around its right-hand side. Our black-and-white heritage building will be just ahead. Look out for signs to 1910 Bistro along the way.

  • Car Park B: sheltered parking within NParks Headquarters
    Make your way to the Visitor Centre, then walk straight through with the Gardens Shop on your right. Continue towards the waterfall and follow the path around its right-hand side. Our building will be just ahead.

Advance notice gives us the opportunity to welcome other guests. Thank you for your understanding.

Are pets welcome?

We’d love to welcome them, but as we don’t have an outdoor area, we’re unfortunately unable to accommodate pets.

What is your corkage policy?

You’re welcome to bring a special bottle of wine. Corkage is $40 per bottle, or we’ll waive corkage on one bottle for every bottle of wine purchased from us.

Is there a dress code?

Smart casual. We like to keep things relaxed, though a little effort goes a long way.

Do you offer takeaway?

We’re not offering takeaway at the moment, as our menu is best enjoyed fresh, right here with us. If we introduce options suited for takeaway, we’ll be sure to let you know.
