Located at Clarke Quay, Alegro Churros Bar serves scrumptious Spanish street food with a variety of cocktails. Besides that, they also specialise in freshly made Churros that are crisp on the outside, but soft and chewy on the inside. The unique texture and taste of their Churros is all thanks to their Churros pulling equipment specially imported from Spain. With opening hours until 2:30am on most nights (4am on Friday and Saturday), it is a great place to chill for a late night out.
