Singapore Turf Club.Tell us about becoming members of the
British Club.
We joined in November 2016. We chose the Club
because of the great relaxed setting and the friendly
atmosphere.How often do you visit the club?
We’re often there on the weekend and we regularly
visit for dinner during the week. I particularly
enjoy the Indian curries at the Verandah Café and
a Hendricks gin in the Mountbatten Bar & Grill.Would you recommend newly arrived
expats join the British Club?
Yes, I would strongly recommend people to join.
There’s a wonderful family atmosphere at the Club,
and it’s a great place for adults and kids to meet new
friends. The staff are friendly and helpful, there are
plenty of social activities, including for children.
And there’s a very good variety and quality of food.If you’re looking for new
friends, new experiences
and enjoyable ways to fill
some free time, becoming a
member of one of Si ngapore’s
clubs is highly recommended.
The British Club is among the
most popular on the island,
and PETER CHADWICK is
one of its many members.
