Stay Gold

Drinks were ok, pretty standard.But I really liked the Mala quail eggs! I went on a Friday night and it was getting noisy when I left - and I left really early at around 8 - so I expect that it would get bustling thereafter. Nice vibes if you’re with a group of friends

Stay Gold Flamingo is a masterclass in the speakeasy experience, driven by a team of clearly passionate bartenders. From the street, it presents as a simple, tropical-themed cafe, but passing through the curtains reveals a classy bar with a casual Manhattan vibe. ​The Craft: Cocktails are thoughtfully designed and meticulously explained by the staff. ​The Occasion: It is an ideal spot for an impressive date night or a refined gathering with friends. ​The Value: While you are paying a premium, the transition of the space and the quality of the drinks make it a worthwhile overall experience.

Great cocktails!! All the cocktails we ordered were hits and no misses. For munchies the Mala quail eggs are so good. If you’re hungry, the beef rice pot was comforting!! We heard the sticky ribs were good but we didn’t have stomach space. Pork skewers were dry for me because I prefer fattier cuts but my friend enjoyed it. Great vibes, it’s somewhere you’ll want to revisit again and again.

After spending some time at the satay street, I stumbled upon this hidden gem. From the outside, it looks like a closed café, quiet and unassuming, but the moment you step behind the curtains, it transforms into a lively, vibrant space filled with energy and charm. The service was excellent—attentive and friendly, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. What stood out to me the most was the design of the menu. It wasn’t just functional but also beautifully crafted, with so much thought and creativity put into it. It added a unique touch to the overall experience. This place feels like a secret spot you’d want to share with friends, somewhere special to escape the usual crowds. If you’re in the area, it’s absolutely worth a visit!

10/10 experience here, watching Bobbert explain the menu and taking his time to reccomend the perfect drink for our group of 9 was like a master class in customer service. Amazing ambience, everyone had a great time. It was clear the speakeasy experience was not an afterthought , the cafe front was fully functional and I would love to enjoy coffee and a sandwich there one day when I'm back!

The hand rolls are intriguing, and the Spam variation is especially delightful. Fries are enjoyable but adding $4.50 each is quite steep. While add-on sauces are available, they don’t seem worth the cost. The complimentary basic chili sauce is a solid choice and pairs well. Pairing drinks with the hand rolls elevates the experience—consider cocktails or fizzy beverages. Do not serve water. Be prepared for a long queue, especially on a Saturday afternoon, as the pop-up is highly popular and only runs until July 5, 2025. Booking in advance is strongly recommended.

This was my second attempt at the Stay Gold Flamingo x Rappu special — and this time, I made it right as the offer began! Scored a great seat and plenty of attention from the friendly front-of-house team, who were super helpful in resolving my paradox of choice. I did enjoy the special, though the crispy rice was a bit too sticky for my liking. The texture was nice, but it stuck to my teeth — not the most pleasant feeling. The fries, though? Fantastic. Easily some of the best I’ve ever had, and they paired perfectly with the wasabi-infused special sauce.

Just had the most INCREDIBLE experience at Gold Flaming thanks to the absolutely PHENOMENAL team led by the one and only Chiobu Mary! 🌟 When one of the recommended drinks arrived tasting like straight-up cough medicine (yikes! 😅). But here's where the magic happened - Chiobu Mary without question swooped in like drink superheroes and transformed my entire experience! She switched me to the "Perfect Lady" and OH. MY. GOODNESS. It was like going from a nightmare to a dream! The difference was absolutely mind-blowing!
