You’ve already enjoyed delicious meals at some of Singapore’s best restaurants while paying just a fraction of the bill, thanks to The Entertainer’s 1-for-1 offers.
Now, you can do the same in Johor Bahru. Yup, Singapore’s favourite dining and entertainment app is spreading its wings across the Causeway, where you can now enjoy deep discounts at Johor Bahru restaurants, cafes, theme parks and more.
Here are some examples of where you can use the Entertainer in Johor Bahru.
Psst, if you sign up for The Entertainer 2019 here, you get a special price of $76.50!
Shakespeare Milkshakes
Singapore and Melbourne are not the only cities in the world with hipster cafes, okay? JB has more than its fair share, and Shakespeare Milkshakes gives our own Tiong Bahru enclave a run for its money with an impeccably furnished interior that channels Scandinavian chic. As the name suggests, they specialise in massive milkshakes. If the sugar isn’t too much for you, enjoy one-for-one milkshakes and waffles with The Entertainer.
Must-try: Their decadent Kinder Bueno Specialty Milkshake, usual price RM18 (5.94 SGD), becomes just RM9 (2.97 SGD) with The Entertainer’s one-for-one deal.

Faculty of Caffeine
If the name sounds vaguely familiar, you might be thinking of Singapore’s now-defunct Department of Caffeine on Duxton Road. No, Faculty of Caffeine in Johor Bahru wasn’t founded by the same people, but it could have been, with similar hearty breakfast platters, fusion pastas and waffle. Knock the price down further with one-for-one main courses courtesy of The Entertainer.
Must-try: Sample the smoked duck aglio olio, which costs RM18.90 (6.24 SGD) or even less with The Entertainer’s 1-for-1 deal.

The Replacement – Lodge & Kitchen
Yet another Melbourne-inspired cafe that’ll have Instagram addicts’ fingers itching. Located in a heritage shophouse in a very central part of town, The Replacement is also a boutique hotel, which you might want to take note of if you wish to spend the night. The cafe-restaurant serves up hearty food that’s substantial enough for dinner.
Must -try: Tuck into their beef steak which originally costs RM28 but gets cheaper when you use The Entertainer’s 1-for-1 deal.

Morganfield’s
This American-style diner is a carnivore’s dream. Their house specialty is a dish called Sticky Bones, and consists of European pork ribs drenched in a flavourful sauce and best washed down with a tall glass of beer. The restaurant is located at Zenith Lifestyle Centre, which is just a few minutes’ drive from the causeway.
Must-try: A full slab of Sticky Bones costs RM98.90 (32.50 SGD), or as low as half the price if you grab a friend and use the Entertainer’s 1-for-1 deal.

Whether you’re sipping on a matcha latte, munching on black sesame cake or sticking your chopsticks into a chicken bowl, you’ll be pleased to find an interesting menu that’s competently served up.

Sanrio Hello Kitty Town and Thomas Town
Forget Legoland. This Hello Kitty-themed amusement park is THE theme park to visit in Johor right now. And if your sons have already been conditioned by society to dismiss all that is pink as too girly, Thomas Town right next door is another theme park dedicated to Thomas the Tank Engine.
Must-try: With The Entertainer, you get 30% off two admissions for a two-park pass to Sanrio Hello Kitty Town and Thomas Town, which usually costs RM85 (28.07 SGD) x 2. That means you save RM51 (16.84 SGD) each time.
