Cheap Valentine’s Day 2020 set meals in Singapore
Image adapted from: @wildseedsg, The Summerhouse
Finding a place for your Valentine’s Day dinner isn’t the easiest of tasks when you’re on a tight budget. Apart from how the seats get snapped up in a flash – sometimes even before February starts – many restaurants also jack up their prices and can charge in the hundreds for a sit-down dinner.
Budget-conscious couples need not worry though, as we’ve sussed out some affordable Valentine’s Day set dinners for 2020 all under $50 per person. You’ll still be getting the fine-dining experience with multiple courses, but without the sky-high heartbreaking bill at the end of the night.
1. The Queen and Mangosteen – 3-course meal for $49/pax

Have a waterfront dining experience at The Queen and Mangosteen, a British pub located at VivoCity. There’s indoor seating, but you’ll want to book a seat at the alfresco area for the best views of Sentosa’s waters and the boats cruising by. You’ll even catch a firework display if you happen to be there at the right time!
