Yassssssssssss it’s finally officially opened! After their soft-opening in July, the newly-renovated and updated SingPost Centre is all hustle and bustle with a majority of the tenants already moved in and operational!
Nestled in the heart of Paya Lebar (and right next to the MRT!!), the SingPost Centre has been updated to become a ‘Smart Mall’ and boasts several key tenants including Golden Village cinemas, plenty of shopping options and of course – PLENTY OF MAKAN!!!
So, we took a quick walk-through the mall and came up with this list of Halal makan places spotted at the NEW SingPost Centre! There are 14 for now but let’s hope to see more and more in the future!
Disclaimer: All the makan places featured on this list have only just become operational. Therefore, their official Halal Certificates have not been confirmed nor issued. Halal Certification application processes in Singapore requires that each establishment be operational for a certain period of time before they become eligible to apply. This list was compiled with information gathered from the individual brands regarding their Halal / Halal application status by speaking with either the ground staff or brand representatives from within our contacts. The list will be updated accordingly once more details become available. If you feel uncomfortable to patronise before the Halal Certifications arrive at each food establishment, please be reminded that patronage is at everyone’s individual discretion.

3. Kaffe & Toast Thai Noodle Bar

Operating Hours: 11.30am til 10.00pm

If you can remember, we posted about Kaffe & Toast waaaaaayyyyy back when we used to visit their outlet at Singapore General Hospital for a period of time. A pretty good place if you’re looking for a selection of local favourites.
We definitely enjoyed their noodles but they also had other dishes on the menu too. At this new outlet at SingPost Centre, it looks like they have expanded the selection even more with a Thai Noodle Bar! We’re thinking… maybe some Beef Noodles? Watch this space for more because we’re itching to visit!
4. Wing Zone

Operating Hours: 11.00am til 10.00pm

In the mood for chicken wings? Wing Zone has got you covered! They’ve got FIFTEEN different flavours for you to choose from and you can even choose if you want the normal wings of the boneless chicken variety!
With names like Nuclear Habanero, Blackened Voodoo, Mango Fire and Sweet Samurai, these wings can be heard to resist but watch out for the spicy ones! Not to be trifled with!

5. Hawkerman
Location: B1-128
Operating Hours: 11.00am til 10.30pm

This one was a bit of a mystery when I saw it… but it did look pretty impressive!
A quick chat with the staff at the outlet and a bit of research and I found out that Hawkerman was a new brand from local actor, Ben Yeo!
Apparently this is an eatery that hosts 3 different Halal brands – Tenderfresh, Warong Kim, and Ah Boy Popiah! Halal certification has been applied for and when it’s confirmed, you can be sure we’re headed there to try some of the amazing-looking stuff on their menu! That’s right, I’m looking at YOU – Double Yolk Chicken.

Status: SOME stalls are Pending MUIS Halal Certification
The token foodcourt at the new SingPost Centre is by Kopitiam! When we visited, some stalls were not yet running but there are a few that are pending Halal certification at this point!
We saw the Chicken Rice, Yong Tau Foo, Ayam Penyet and Fish Soup stalls were slated to be certified (hopefully soon!) but we’ll check back again and update here when we have more information! PS remember to return your trays to the respective Halal Tray Return points okay! 😀
BONUS INFORMATION!!!
Besides all the makan, we also saw a few other brands we are familiar with. The supermarket at B1 is NTUC Fairprice and at the top floor are the Golden Village cinema halls. And of course, they have the Post Office at the 1st floor and if you’re a philatelist like me, they have a special store there! If you’re in the mood for karaoke, we also saw that Cash Studio is opening soon! 😛
Well, there you have it folks, the rundown on the Halal makan places to be found at the newly-reopened SingPost Centre. As always, with newly opened places, certification takes awhile so let’s be patient. Just remember that in the meantime, if you have any doubts, then best to avoid. Just make plans ajer lah okay! We will update the list as and when we have new/more information!!

Is BBQ Express @ SingPost halal too?
Hi Nazz.
Well, technically, if we didn’t include it on the list… means tak Halal lah LOL
BBQ Express is definitely not Halal. They have BBQ pork ribs on their menu.
