About 3thirtynine | Modern European Bistro in Jalan Besar
Our Story: 以酒会友
At 3thirtynine, we believe that the best moments in life are created over good food, great drinks, and a shared glass of wine.
Our owner has always cherished the simple pleasures—laughing over a meal, toasting to life’s milestones, and forming meaningful connections through shared experiences. This deep appreciation for togetherness is rooted in the philosophy of “以酒会友” (yǐ jiǔ huì yǒu), a timeless Chinese saying that speaks to the beauty of bonding over wine and good company.'
Inspired by this belief, 3thirtynine was created as a cozy European restaurant in Singapore where people can come together, unwind, and truly enjoy each other’s presence. With this vision at heart, our space was designed to be much more than just another bistro in Singapore. We wanted to build a standout destination among Jalan Besar restaurants—an intimate space where conversations flow as effortlessly as the wine, where every meal becomes a memory, and where guests feel at home from the moment they step in.
Our goal is to create an inviting and comfortable atmosphere, perfect for casual fine dining in Singapore where everyone feels good, connected, and part of something special. Whether you're here for an intimate dinner, a lively gathering, or simply to experience the joy of sharing food and drinks, 3thirtynine embodies the spirit of “以酒会友”, bringing people together, one toast at a time.
