Where to eat in Upper Thomson?

While this platform isn't specifically about food, knowing the dining options in your neighborhood is still essential.

Looking for places to eat in Upper Thomson? Like many Singaporeans, I have a passion for food, and Upper Thomson is home to a variety of fantastic eateries. From popular spots like Udders and Columbus Coffee to local favorites such as Singapore Crispy Prata and Indulge (which moved to Mid View City in July 2021), this area offers a wealth of culinary delights.

When choosing a place to live, factors like transportation and dining options are vital. Upper Thomson excels in both, providing a diverse range of dining experiences to cater to all tastes.

For those in search of lively hangout spots, Udders and Columbus Coffee are long-time favorites, known for their delicious offerings and excellent coffee that attract crowds—even during tough times like the early pandemic days. Alternatively, traditional food lovers can enjoy eateries like Singapore Crispy Prata, Beach Road Scissor Cut Rice, and MingFa Fish Ball.

What makes Upper Thomson unique is the harmonious blend of modern and traditional cuisines, creating an atmosphere that combines contemporary flair with nostalgic charm, especially in its quaint shop-house dining settings.

A bit off the main path, Shunfu Mart, located between Upper Thomson Road and Marymount Road, offers a distinct experience. Unlike the eateries along Upper Thomson Road that mainly operate in the afternoons and evenings, Shunfu Mart caters to homemakers by combining elements of a hawker center with a market under one roof.
