About Silver's Motel

Behind an unmarked black frontage on Enmore Road, Silver's Motel delivers nostalgic cocktail-lounge escapism with retro motel panelling and top-tier spirits. Trace the street numbers to find it—no signs give away the door. Inside, plush timber booths and a handcrafted wooden bar top set a low-lit 1970s supper-club scene. Spirits lovers come for the massive back bar housing over 300 whiskies, including rare distillery releases, alongside playful signatures like the Ice Magic Old Fashioned. Grab a slice from Epic across the street to pair with a cold dram.

  • Unmarked Facade: Low-key black frontage with no exterior signage, tucked away along Enmore Road.
  • 300-Bottle Whisky Wall: A curated spirits back bar stocking over 300 bottles, spanning rare Scotch labels to creative house concoctions.
