The most outstanding type of shop in Boat Quay area is but alfresco restaurants that serve Western visitors and local business people.

And if you walk up north of Boat Quay, you will find Quarke Quay which its name was taken from Sir Andrew Clarke, the governor of Straits Settlements from 1873-1875. Quarke Quay is full of godowns constructed during 1860 to 1920 by Chinese and European entrepreneurs.
