Tipsy Bridge

Melaka City


Creedence Clearwater Revival and other 1970s rock bands dominate the turntable at this hipster bar in a cute lane near the Kampung Jawa pedestrian bridge over the Sungai Melaka. Sit in the lane to enjoy a beer or cocktail with bar food including burgers, fries and hot dogs (RM5–12). It's popular with expats and locals.
