About Republic
Republic at The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore showcases an extensive cocktail menu devoted to a narrative of historical anecdotes inspired by the influential hallmarks of pop culture in the 1960s across art, cinema, fashion and music. While the '60s were marked by cultural and social revolution, it also saw the rise of style icons and the legends of rock music, as well as the international jet set, which led to a sophisticated era for cocktail culture. The Republic bar concept pays homage to this era where freedom, expression and individuality were celebrated, with a cocktail menu that showcases flavors, ingredients and sensations inspired by this seminal period of history.
