More affectionately known as "Croc Rock", Singapore's oldest, most famous and longest-running lesbian pub opened in 1992 and operated for more than 15 years. It was not exclusively for women though, as there were a handful of male regulars who "had mutual respect for the women" assured its lesbian owner. One could expect a mature crowd of working professional women in their late-20s and above. Weekdays were a good bet if one loved to sing as it was quiet and one would not have to arm wrestle anyone for the karaoke mike. Strictly English music.

In the book SQ 21: Singapore Queers in the 21st Century (2006), interviewee Sheila Rajamanickam said “you cannot write about lesbian history without writing about Crocodile Rock.
