Description The bar Jigger & Pony operates in Singapore's Amara Hotel. Fodor's describes the space as "cozy", "inviting", and dimly lit. The Infatuation has described the interior is "sultry, sleek, and upholstered with more velvet than Prince's wardrobe". The drink menu has traditional cocktails such as martinis, negronis, and old fashioneds, as well as "signature" options such as a gin fizz with orange flower bubbles and a whiskey sour with yuzu marmalade.

Reception The Spirits Business has said Jigger & Pony is among Southeast Asia's "most high-profile" bars. Jigger & Pony was ranked Asia's best bar in the Asia's Best Bars list in 2020. It has since ranked second in the same list from 2021 to 2023. Jigger & Pony was named the Best International Hotel bar at Tales of the Cocktail in 2023. Anthony Eu of The Infatuation wrote, "If you somehow can't find something you like on the menu, have one of their bartenders whip you up something, find a spot for prime people-watching, and revel in the fact that you got to drink at the best bar in Asia." Time Out Singapore included the business in a 2024 list of the country's 50 best bars. The Michelin Guide has described the bar as "one of the frontrunners in Singapore's drinks industry".
