Worth it for / Skip if
Worth it for — a table you can lock in — seats are booked through SevenRooms.
Skip if — you are deciding at the door: the record carries a booking route, not a walk-in policy.
Every clause above is drawn from a named field in this venue's record — a published price, a booking route, the verified hours — and nothing else.
What it costs
No priced item is on record for this venue. Forkin publishes a price only where a dated public source carries it, so nothing is estimated here.

The longer version
BOP, short for Bartenders of Pony, occupies a first-floor shophouse at 76 Tras Street, a few minutes from Tanjong Pagar MRT, and is the Jigger & Pony Group's Korean room. It is led by Uno Jang, the group's creative director, who MiddleClass.sg records as the winner of the Altos Bartenders' Bartender Award at the World's 50 Best Bars 2025. Time Out quotes him on the intent: "After ten years in Singapore, I wanted to create something that felt closer to how I actually grew up drinking... In Korea, drinking is never just about the drink." Two accounts count 12 signature cocktails on the opening list, drawing on soju, makgeolli, takju and cheongju and on Korean ingredients — perilla, seaweed, yuja, nuruk. The food menu was developed by the group's executive chef David Tang with Jason Oh, a Korean chef from the first season of Netflix's Culinary Class Wars who HungryGoWhere reports owns the Seoul chicken-skewer shop Tak Seoul and has cooked at Yardbird in Hong Kong. HungryGoWhere states "This was a hosted tasting"; MiddleClass.sg says its article is based on a media-tasting event. Time Out rates the bar 4 out of 5 and states no disclosure either way; it was the only one to register a reservation, finding the Bokbunja Pop "syrupy, fruity... without much depth or complexity". Where the three agree is narrower and more useful: all three name the iced somaek, a soju-and-beer pour topped with shaved soju ice from an ice shaver carried over from the group's former rum bar Sugarhall, and all three name the fried chicken, built on Oh's recipe and served with three house sauces, as the dish to pair with it. The accounts also differ on the Bokbunja Pop's build.

Editorial stamp
WORTH A LOOK
Confidence: lowForkin desk assessment of attributable public coverage — not a personal dining review.
One qualifying source only (limited consensus; single-source consistency must not be high). The review is detailed and mixed rather than generic (high specificity). Time Out is established. The 19 Feb review is current under the fixed-year recency definition (2025+). WORTH A LOOK is a proposed cautious stamp solely for the parent to assess; no numeric score computed here. Publication decision: WORTH A LOOK; one-source provisional limitation disclosed.
What public coverage says
Time Out Singapore: The writer reports sampling the iced somaek, Bokbunja Pop, Perilla Smash, BOP Martini, banana milk tiramisu, crispy fried chicken and seafood pancake; offers concrete sensory evaluation and rates 4/5.
Last assessed 5 October 2026 · 1 linked substantive source
Caveat: Provisional low-confidence desk assessment based on one countable independent editorial evaluation; this is an evidence score, not a personal dining rating. Other retrieved coverage was excluded from scoring where it was hosted, promotional, pre-opening, or not an editorial evaluation.
