It feels like just yesterday we were buzzing over the launch of 1939 Singapore – the multi-concept venue that took over Potato Head Singapore at Keong Saik Road. But less than six months since the announcement, the team has confirmed its upcoming closure this month. 

For those who never got around to visiting the space, 1939 is split across four floors: the Front Porch on level one, The Restaurant on level two, the cocktail bar Studio 1939 on level three, and The Rooftop on level four. The first level is also where you’ll find the beloved Potato Head Three Buns burgers, such as the popular Fun Boy Three. Much of its predecessor’s charm was preserved – from the signature hand-painted murals by artist David Bromley to the winding checkered staircase, dotted with vintage bits and bobs.

1939 Singapore’s last day of operations is slated for May 31, 2025. While the reason for the closure was not revealed, all four levels will remain open right up till its final day. If you’ve been meaning to swing by, this is your final two weeks to do so.
