My husband and I visited the Capitol Theatre in the heart of town, a heritage building that has been conserved for its historic significance! It is easily accessible via the underground tunnel to the City Hall train station. Currently, the interiors house many modern restaurants and we enjoyed dinner at one called Hopscotch. The ambience is so lovely here as the natural light comes through the ceiling and windows, wonderful for relaxing in! The food is a bit of a hit and miss though, I liked the beef and mash but the fusion minced meat noodles was tasted a little odd. My overall rating of the experience: 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #mysgmemories #singapore #tripblazers #tripmoments

#celebratewithtrip visited Capitol theatre and this is located in Singapore city hall . the nearest train station is city hall and available in both green and red lines. the theatre is actually very nice and the exterior of it somehow reminds me of retro vibes and I really liked it. in the theatre it looks very grand as well and I believe performances are being held and conducted here. examples could be musical performances. nearby there are also many food options available here so you won’t have to worry about being hungry. they may be pricey though. otherwise you can head to funan mall which is just beside and you can find cheaper options there.

#celebratewithtrip Capitol Theatre, part of a prime integrated development Capitol Singapore, is an architectural and heritage treasure. The venue remains contemporary and vibrant thanks to its exceptional interiors and leading-edge, world-class audio and visual equipment. The theatre’s 977-seat venue is the first in Southeast Asia to have a rotational floor system that allows for flexible seating configurations, making it an ideal setting for any event. Capitol Theatre’s legacy lives on in the reverent hands of IMC Group Asia whose commitment to excellence and attention to detail continues to drive the inner workings and operations for one of Singapore’s best and most elegant of venues.

My first experience in Capitol theatre watching the local show of Meenah & Cheenah in May 2022. The interior seats are classic chairs (iykyk) and had some interesting neoclassical architecture. Will look forward to my next visit there! Also, if it matters, Capitol building mall has bidet in their toilets! p/s: check out Capitol Theatre at night! Google it!

Award winning bakery from Taiwan! Saw many good reviews online and decided to give it a try once in my lifetime since it was along my way home. Haha. It was along the main road and very accessible near the City Hall mrt. Top award was the lychee bread. Not cheap for a small loaf yet I still see people buying it. $16.80 for a small loaf! But taste was great & fragrant! Sesame mochi was also very rich. But the curry chicken bread was a bit too oily for me. If not for the price, I would have bought more of other breads. Overall the lychee bread was flavory and had a nice lychee smell. Very special. Recommended to give it a try at least once. Address - 13 Stamford Rd, Capitol Singapore, Singapore 178905

Captiol Theatre located at cityhall is a iconic historical cinema that was first opened and built by M.A Namazie in 1930s. But the recent renovation from 2011-2015, capitol theatre reopend and turning it into a home for arts. It is also connected with a high-end retail mall with a residence and hotel combined. There are several up-class restaurants like Hopscotch, Holy Crab, Famous Treasure and Broadway American Diner which we tried. Prices for the burgers here can be abit on the higher end but the fries, burgers and milkshakes lives up to its name! This all American themed diner alsp brings back memories on how an American diner should not only feel like, but look like. Definitely a place to visit when you are here! #mustvisit #singapore #historic #historical #iconic #burger #urbanexplorer #foodie #createwithtrip

Location: City Hall Area Getting here: City Hall MRT station This is one of the really interesting places to visit in Singapore. At one end you will find famous shopping centres such as Raffles City Shopping Centre, while just next to them you will find iconic historical building like our Capitol Theatre, Supreme Court, National Gallery Singapore and Chijmes etc. For visitors visiting this place for the first time, I will highly recommend to first allocate time to visit the historical places as you will learn and see a lot about the history of Singapore here, including stories about how this buildings were related to the World War II. When night falls, this place turns into a entertainment district with many bars and restaurants around the area. You will also find beautiful lights on the building showcasing a really beautiful scene of Singapore! #cityscapes

Visited the Broadway American Diner located at Capitol. It is pretty cute but it wasn’t as big as I thought. My friend has the Angus beef burger and it was pretty good but wasn’t spectacular. I had the chicken noodles soup because it’s quite unique to find restaurants selling American style chicken noodle soup in Singapore. It was pretty basic, chicken soup with some diced vegetables and spaghetti! The all-American-themed diner in Singapore brings wholesome family fun with juicy burgers. With a nostalgic menu starred by its housemade patties and freshly baked, chemical-free buns. Complete with tasty milkshakes, ice cream and fun desserts.

#favouriteitinerary Capitol Theatre is a very popular place in Singapore. The original building looks very vintage due to its history. To get to here, you can take the underpass directly connected to the City Hall MRT. It is very beautifully decorated, Singapore truly gives justice to their landmarks!! This place usually holds smaller concerts, although not as big of a venue - it still is good enough to enjoy the time there!! It might be an old building but it’s rather kept very clean and tidy. I think the age is also the charm because it’s more difficult to come accords places like this with history rather than finding a “modern” theatre!! They also have a more modern looking building beside with great food options as well. If you ever happen to go there, I hope you’ll have the best time of your life!!

#newyearnewtrip Attending Kanho Yakushiji’s World Tour at the Capitol Theatre in Singapore was such a unique and unforgettable experience. What makes him so fascinating is that he’s not just a pop musician, but also a monk—a combination that really sets him apart. His ability to blend spirituality with pop music creates a fascinating contrast, making his performances not only entertaining but deeply thought-provoking. The show itself was mesmerizing. Kanho’s energy was infectious, and the fusion of traditional Buddhist elements with modern pop sounds felt both innovative and meaningful. It truly was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, showcasing a side of music and culture I had never seen before. If you ever get the chance to see him live, don’t miss it! It’s an experience that’s hard to put into words but will stay with you long after the final note.

#chillandthrill #tropicalretreats #singapore The Capitol Theater is one of the oldest theater/cinemas in Singapore. It was high-class in the 60s and 70s. Now, after some renovations over years, it still looks high-class but in a neo-classical and vintage style. At this time, the building is being functioned as a venue for concert, convention and wedding. The closest metro station is City Hall Station and it’s a minute walking away from the station.

#newyearnewtrip At the underground pass that connects the city hall train station to the capitol theatre mall, you would be able to find several restaurants there. The environment of the dining area is great. You can also find the different kinds of cuisine here too. During the Chinese New year season, you can see that the place has been beautifully decorated to bring out the Chinese New year season feel. If you are staying around the swissotel hotel, the Fairmont hotel, or even the Carlton Singapore hotel, be sure to visit this underground walkway. You can also spend your time pampering yourself with spa and facial massage, if you have free time to spare, during your stay in Singapore.

#newyearnewtrip The capitol shopping mall which is a few minutes walk from the city hall train station, is one of the newest malls along this stretch of road. You can also take the underground pass from the city hall train station to reach here. Along the way, you may find some dining options which cater to your taste buds. You can find western cuisine, Thai cuisine, and local flavours here too. I would recommend the paradise restaurant as they served authentic dim sum and wanton beef noodles. If you are looking for a light snack during the tea time hours , you can visit the kopi and tart cafe to enjoy a bite of the crispy tuna or chicken puff. Together with their signature Portuguese cheese tarts there.

Located in the city centre, Capitol Theatre and its adjacent buildings are conserved by the government because of their national heritage. Built in the early 1900s, the details and facades of these buildings have largely remained intact. The architecture is beautiful and intricate, reminding us of Singapore’s colonial roots. Now, these buildings have been refreshed for commercial purposes. There are restaurants, entertainment and even a hotel within these buildings! Save this for your itinerary when you visit Singapore. My overall rating of the experience: 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #lioncitystyle #100waysoftravel #singapore #tripmoments #tripblazers
