SPACE
LIBC @ Changi
Two huge units of indoor seating, two areas of alfresco seating, a playground for the kids, a window into the brewery, there’s hardly anywhere in skyscraper Singapore that’s like us. Designed by Akira Kita of AKA Architecture and Interior Design, two plain HDB shop lots have turned into a beautiful cozy space where you can relax and enjoy life. Sea breeze, rustling trees and starry skies come free of charge!
LIBC @ South Beach
Designed by the same architectural firm Akira Kita Architecture, also the team behind the design concepts of Esquina and Luke’s Oyster Bar & Chop House, LIBC @ South Beach’s interior is decorated in a sleek and muted color palette of grey, coppery gold and brown marble, and accented with wood elements to emulate an experience of medieval times.
FOOD
We are passionate about using only the freshest and tastiest ingredients carefully curated from local and imported producers from around the world. Our menu is a reflection of our commitment to quality, with contemporary style recipes that are sure to whet your appetite. Whether you’re in the mood for a mind-blowingly good burger or a more refined dish, our chefs have crafted a menu that offers something for everyone.
