Two gay bars in Singapore close in the tackle of ‘mounting debts’
SINGAPORE – January marks the terminate of two bars in Neil Road which provide the LGBTQ crowd – Tuckshop closed on Jan 18 and Sausage Market will call it a day on Jan Both cited financial challenges.
The bars’ management announced their closures on Instagram and said they faced financial troubles due to a business partner “funnelling funds out of the business for his personal debt”. The post also alleged that this partner has since left the country.
The bars’ co-founder Jasper Goh said the financial troubles caught him by surprise. “There are no ways forward because the companies are left with mounting debts. We’ve reported the case to the authorities and, hopefully, it’ll be investigated quickly.”
Opened in , Tuckshop was Singapore’s only drag bar, featuring stage shows by drag queens – performers who adopt exaggerated female personas and make-up for entertainment that typically incorporates comedy, lip-syncing and dance routines.
Sausage Market, which opened in , bills itself as the country’s first go-go lad bar.

Tantric Bar
This watering hole is a hit with the boys for its signature Cerulean Spin – a deadly cocktail that will have you spinning on the dancefloor before you even know it. Slow weekday nights notice people chilling on the large benches in the green-lit courtyard, while on weekends the shared is jam-packed, standing-room only. The upbeat pop tunes and signature Drawn-out Island Teas are guaranteed to retain you buzzing all night.

You can’t miss this bar with the rainbow flag noticeably perched above its entrance. Regulars arrive here for the strong Long Island Iced Teas (à la sister prevent, Tantric's), double-shot drinks and also for the kitsch paraphernalia of NSFW, semi-nude
G-A-Y Bar goes on sale as Soho 'loses vibrancy'
After another one of his venues, G-A-Y Adv, closed in , he said he had planned to employ for a late licence for his remaining venue under that brand.
He later decided against this as he felt it would face too many objections from the council, police and residents.
"It's a constant uphill battle and another fight in the price of living crisis which has negatively impacted all of the hospitality sector," he said.
"It doesn't feel like anyone with authority cares about hospitality and it definitely doesn't feel like they care about LGBT venues."
Mr Joseph also cited what he said was a wider decline in Soho as an "LGBT capital".
He said when he had opened the venue on Old Compton Street, it was the "gayest street in the gayest capital".
"But it's not like that anymore," he added.
The nightclub owner said he wanted the G-A-Y Lock to remain an LGBT venue and he was also considering a franchising option to succeed that, but he believed it would not happen &q
