Alley on 25

Alley on 25 is the all-day dining restaurant on level 25 of Andaz Singapore, in DUO Tower at 5 Fraser Street. It serves Asian and Western comfort food from breakfast to dinner, with semi-buffet spreads at weekends.

It opened with the hotel in 2017. The idea was to let you wander from kitchen to kitchen, as you would at a street food centre, but 25 floors up. The space was modelled on the city's back alleys and old shophouses, with several linked open kitchens. When it opened, each kitchen was built around a different way of cooking, such as a charcoal grill, a flat-top grill or a wok.

What to order

The best-known meal here is the Lazy Breakfast, a weekend semi-buffet. You choose one main course, such as eggs Benedict or a smoked salmon bagel, and help yourself to the rest. The buffet has waffles, cheeses, fresh juices and an egg station that cooks to order, plus a choice of Asian dishes.

Recent buffets have also had seafood on ice, cold cuts, salads and a long dessert table. Grilled items such as chicken satay come hot from the kitchen. Outside the buffets, an à la carte menu covers Asian and Western comfort food.

The restaurant also runs themed menus through the year. For Austrian Gourmet Week in October and November 2026, it served an à la carte menu based on recipes by Austrian chef Lukas Nagl. Dishes included Styrian fried chicken and Kaiserschmarren, a shredded pancake. Check the hotel website for the current theme.

The setting

Level 25 is the main social floor of the hotel, and the outdoor pool is on the same level. Floor-to-ceiling windows let in plenty of daylight, and some tables look out over the pool or the city. From this height you can see across the low roofs of Kampong Glam. Light, modern furniture keeps the mood relaxed, so it suits a business lunch as well as a slow weekend meal.

Good to know before you go

• Booking: reservations are accepted by phone or online. Book ahead for the weekend buffet.
• Children: themed buffets usually have a lower price for children.
• Getting there: DUO has a direct underground link to Bugis MRT station. Take the hotel lifts up to level 25.
