Nestled among the lush greenery of the historic Dempsey Hills area of Singapore, the complex of grand colonial-era buildings that once functioned as the main military barracks for the British Army in Singapore have been extensively restored and converted into a thriving upscale lifestyle complex of restaurants, antique stores, and art galleries.

Drawing on decades of design experience and the cultural heritage of the famous Jim Thompson Residence and Museum in Bangkok, the company have created a magnificent statement of restaurant design- artfully combining the impressive colonial architecture with a contemporary Thai style of refined elegance.

Amongst the most impressive fine dining experiences one could hope to ‘get classy’ with, is Jim Thompson Thai Restaurant & Wine Bar — located within an extensively restored complex, that was once a primary military barracks for the British Army! This restaurant is well-known for housing an abundance of vino (pairing well with each of its mouth-watering Southeast Asian dishes) and for creative plates that showcase refined, yet modernized Thai cuisine. With provision of 3 dining style options — a blissful outdoor garden terrace setting, a stunning main dining hall inciting a true fine dining experience, and a Wine Bar that offers a casual approach — there you have it, for your pick of atmosphere at Jim’s!

The restaurant’s distinctive approach is “absolutely Thai, Thompson-style.”

“Absolutely Thai” means the chefs have tested many, many recipes for each classic dish to refine what they believe experienced palettes will judge the very most delicious version. “Thompson-style” means the cooking, menu and interior all reflect an appealing mix of tradition and innovation, inspired by the founder Jim Thompson’s marvellous taste in designing silk and his famous Bangkok mansion.

A Definitive Menu Offering More than 80 classic Thai dishes, including appetizers, spicy salads, soups, curries, main dishes, seafood, noodles, desserts and more.
