Clark Quay

  • April 7, 2005
  • Rated 3 of 5 by curtbarker from Cupertino, California
After an awesome crab feast at Seafood Park, we all taxied on over to Clark Quay (remember, Quay is pronounced "kee") and sat along the waterfront sharing pitchers of Tiger Beer. Clark Quay is an area of shops, restaurants, and bars right along the Singapore River. Down-river just a few hundred yards is Boat Quay. Both areas are popular among tourists and locals alike, but on a weekend night, the differences are obvious. Clark Quay attracts a more mature (and mellow) crowd, while Boat Quay is packed with teenagers. At Boat Quay, aggressive bar barkers try to lure you into their establishment with drink specials and live music. Combine that with the young crowd, and the place takes on a Tijuana feel, just a lot cleaner and safer and much more expensive. On a weeknight, the Quays are jumping during happy hour, but things die down pretty early. During the day, the place is a ghost town.

Clarke Quay

  • February 24, 2004
  • Rated 3 of 5 by Rattie from Perth, Australia
Promoted as a festival village, Clarke Quay is crammed with bars, cafes, restaurants, and some truly awful souvenir shops.

We took a $12 bumboat trip around the river and harbour – it’s a great way to cool off on a steamy Singapore night and an opportunity to ogle the many lovely examples of colonial architecture.

Masochists can experience the joy (?) of being catapulted into the sky in a three-person bungee capsule. . . preferably before hitting the bars and food outlets!

We walked back to our hotel along the parks at 1am, a perfectly safe option in this friendly city.
