Imagine a burger joint transformed into a contemporary Japanese-inspired bar at night. Roku, which also means ’six’ in Japanese, is an innovative concept bar situated at Market Street. This “after-six” drinking place boasts an extended range of beverages including wine, house pours (cocktails/spirits) and sake, all served at an affordable price of $6. This unlikely fusion of burgers and sake is the brainchild of the owners of popular burger joint R Burger and the online beverage portal, Winecharge.

Unlike other online beverage companies, Winecharge is a revolutionary beverage portal that offers a wide selection of wine, sake and shochu with tasting notes and reviews. It also guarantees same day delivery at an affordable rate. With Roku functioning as its retail arm, consumers can now visit Winecharge’s brick and mortar store to make immediate purchases of wine and sake.

After a successful start with F & B joint R Burger, Adam Chen, director of R Burger Singapore, commented, “The idea of a bar like Roku was conceived when I visited Japan and was very inspired by the Y500 bar, where a wide selection of beverages are priced at an affordable rate of 500 yen (approximately $7.80). Singaporeans need more places where they can wind down after a long day at work and I believe that this concept would be well-received here.”
