Out all hours or got a midnight craving you can't shake? No judgment. Here are some great supper spots in Singapore for late night bites…
It’s safe to say everyone loves to eat (including you, dear reader) and yes, we’re up for it at all hours. After a night out drinking, sometimes the only way to make everything feel better is to treat yourself to some serious grub. Well, I’ve covered all corners of the island to find the best supper places, and these are the ones you should hit up for late-night food in Singapore.
Late-night supper places in Singapore: Central
1. Orchard Bak Chor Mee
Have you ever stepped foot into Orchard Plaza? If the answer’s no, now’s a good time to do so. Make your way to the fourth floor for Orchard Bak Chor Mee, a new contender in Singapore’s supper spots. This literal hidden gem – you’ll need to keep a look out in order to find it – is where you can slurp up savoury bowls of bak chor mee. The kitchen is helmed by a chef who used to work at a noodle stall in BK Eating House (yes, that one), so you know the standards are sky high. There aren’t a lot of seats, and the queue gets longer after 1am, but trust me, it’s all worth it.
Must-try items: signature bak chor mee sua, old school laksa
How much: From $7.90
Opening hours: Mondays to Saturdays, 7pm to 5.30am

2. Sam Leong St Chicken Rice
Chicken rice at 2am, anyone? If you’re in the Little India vicinity and in the mood for a plate of chook and carbs, I say forget everything else and visit this heritage brand. It may not be as popular as Tian Tian or Chatterbox, but Sam Leong (not to be confused with the celeb chef) has its fair share of devotees. Come with an empty stomach ‘cos the generous portions will fill you up and send you straight to food coma land. If that’s still not enough, order the soup of the day to wash everything down.
Must-try items: Poached chicken rice; fried chicken wing; chicken liver
How much: From $3.50
Opening hours: Daily, 8am to 3am
Address: 12 Verdun Road, Singapore 207278

3. Hanjip Korean Grill House
If you’re done drinking earlier than expected in Clarke Quay and looking for a place to refuel, I suggest hitting up this grill house. Korean food always does it for me, and I’m sure most folks are in the same boat too. Picture a sizzling grill filled with succulent beef and pork cuts… what a sight, eh? Let’s not forget a table overflowing with spicy tofu stew, kimchi pancake, steamed egg, and more. You’ll need help leaving the restaurant after all that feasting.
Must-try items: Hanjip platter; spicy handmade tofu; kimchi pancake; steamed egg
How much: Dinner set from $178; a la carte from $22
Opening hours: Daily, 12pm to 12am

4. Haidilao Hot Pot @ 313
This brand needs no further introduction. I mean, who hasn’t heard of Haidilao? Besides overly spicy soup bases, this Sichuan-based restaurant is known for its theatrics. You must’ve seen videos of the staff flamboyantly stretching noodles in front of you like a twirling martial artist all over social media. Is the food any good? Of course – and that’s why people keep coming back.

5. The Ramen Stall
It’s easy to find halal and Muslim-owned food options in Bugis, but ones that stay past midnight? I can count them with one hand. Thank heavens for this spot, which is ever ready to feed night owls till 2am. Modelled after The Ramen House at Short Street, The Ramen Stall offers traditional Japanese cuisine without using pork, lard, and alcohol in its dishes. If you can take the heat, let’s see if you can handle the volcano ramen. Good luck!
Must-try items: Volcano ramen; unagi maki; salmon belly sashimi; Hokkaido chicken strips; Japanese curry rice

If you’re craving flame-grilled western delights that will make your mouth water, Char-Grill Bar at Holland Village won’t let you down. Meat lovers can sink their forks into the variety of chicken, sausages, and burgers available on the menu. Digging into a hunky steak is the best option. Looking for something lighter? Give the salad bowls a go.
Must-try items: Smoked beef sausage set; crispy fish and chips; char-grilled chicken

7. 49 Seats
A brief history lesson about 49 seats: its name came about because the restaurant originally started out with exactly 49 seats at its first outlet in Chinatown. If you’re curious about whether the number is still the same, you can go around counting. As for me, I’m going to take a seat and enjoy the fusion grub on offer. Tom yum seafood pasta sounds (and tastes) a lot better than doing mathematics. Psst: enjoy 10% off your total bill if you dine after 10pm, and 15% off after midnight.
Must-try items: Tom yum seafood pasta; fish and chips with alscampi sauce
How much: From $7.90
Opening hours: Mondays to Saturdays, 11.30am to 2am and Sundays, 11.30am to 11.30pm

8. Beauty in The Pot
Hotpot is good for any time of the day: after an intensive bowling sesh, during a rainy day, and even for supper. One of our team’s go-to spots is Beauty in The Pot at Orchard Road. This late-night favourite offers six collagen-based soups that satisfy hunger pangs and keeps diners looking beautiful. Goodbye, exercise and microneedling! Go for the quart pot option because… why not? The more the merrier! Plus, you don’t have to fight with others about which soup base to get.

9. Maxwell Food Centre
Maxwell Food Centre is chaotic in the daytime, especially during lunch hour. But come back after hours, when you’ve had a long night of drinking in the city and all you want is to tuck into a comforting bowl of fishball noodles or a satisfying plate of fried char kway teow. The Indian Muslim stall is also open till late, so you can enjoy pratas and mee goreng. Our team loves Maxwell’s central location for late-night food in Singapore!

10. Swee Choon Dim Sum Restaurant
I don’t know about you, but I love exploring Jalan Besar. There are so many things to see and do here, and when the time comes to eat, Swee Choon is the only food spot to hit up. From early morning till late at night, the restaurant dishes out Cantonese and Shanghainese small bites that won’t burn a hole in your pocket. Be sure to order the fan-favourite signature mee suah kueh! No meal here is complete without it.

11. Zamas Restaurant
You know you’ve arrived at this restaurant in River Valley when you spot a long queue waiting for their seats. Thankfully, the line moves quickly. Its extensive menu covers Asian and western cuisine, ranging from fried rice and roti john to chicken burgers and fish and chips. Regulars rave about the mutton biryani, though I prefer the mee goreng pattaya. If you listened to our podcast, you’d know I also love Zamas’ teh cino. It just hits the sweet spot!
Must-try items: Chicken meal; nasi goreng kampung; mutton biryani; lamb chop; pandan tea

12. New Shah Alam Restaurant
So you’ve spent a good chunk of the night getting tipsy at Circular Road (no judgment here!). If you wanna sober up before you head home to crash, I say walk (with the help of a friend) to this eatery. Shah Alam constantly sees a stream of folks in need of midnight munchies – a testament to its popularity. Of course, the affordable prices help. You can’t go wrong with a plate of savoury maggi goreng. Wash that down with a cup of teh tarik and you’re all set for bed.

Address: 20-21 Circular Road, Singapore 049376

13. Beach Road Scissors Cut Curry Rice
Sometimes all you need is a good plate of curry rice to awaken you from your drunken stupor. A stone’s throw away from the bustling Mustafa Centre lies one of Singapore’s legendary supper spots. The rice here is drenched in rich curry gravy and accompanied by crunchy cabbage and crispy pork chop. Some people think it’s “ugly”, but I say it’s a beautiful, tasty mess. P.S. Be sure to have enough cash with you – it’s still pretty much old-school here.
Must-try items: Set D; pork chop; ngoh hiang
How much: Set meal from $5.80
Opening hours: Daily, 11am to 3.30am
Address: 229 Jalan Besar, Singapore 208905

14. Founder Bak Kut Teh
By experience alone, Founder Bak Kut Teh deserves a spot on this list. Having been around for over 40 years, the restaurant consistently delivers a mean bowl of broth. The peppery soup is replete with tender pork ribs and has the right amount of kick to it that’ll clear your sinuses and heads. Don’t just take my word for it: the photo walls showcase the celebrities who have frequented the place throughout the years.
Must-try items: Founder Bak Kut Teh; crispy prawn roll
How much: From $4.80

15. 85 Fengshan Market & Food Centre
I’ve lost count of the times I walked past this hawker centre and still see plenty of people milling about, having their supper, and catching up with friends. Rain or shine, from dusk till dawn, this is one spot that’s constantly packed. As with every hawker centre in Singapore, you can get all local favourites here, from minced meat noodles and satay to oyster omelette and sambal stingray. The sky – along with your stomach space and wallet – is the limit!

When you mention Simpang Bedok, most will immediately associate the enclave with this establishment. Tang Tea House is a powerhouse when it comes to late-night meals, offering dim sun, fried chicken, crispy fried noodles, and giant glasses of its signature Super Cooler. One of my friends is a big fan of its chicken feet. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can add that to your order sheet. Not for me, thanks!

17. Enak Enak Restaurant
Singapore’s east side is a supper lover’s playground, but if you ask me for recommendations, this eating house ranks near the top of the list. Those who are still awake (and hungry) at 2am can swing by for plates of halal dim sum, local faves like curry fish head and Hainanese chicken rice, and western delights. Don’t forget that cup of piping hot milk tea! You can choose to upsize your drink, but I suggest only doing that if you plan to stay till late.
Must-try items: Golden sand buns; traditional mixed rojak; Hainanese chicken rice
How much: Set menu from $27; a la carte from $4
Opening hours: Daily, 11am to 4am

18. Mongkok Dim Sum
Nothing warms the soul (and comforts the midnight hunger pangs) more than warm plates of fried and steamed dim sum. Each comes in small portion sizes, so you can order a variety of things. Go for the chee cheong fun filled with char siew or the fried spring rolls and prawn paste chicken. On those chilly nights, porridge is a good option to warm you up. So snap your friends out of their drunken state and make your way here to fill your tummies.
Must-try items: 3-yolk crab porridge; claypot congee; house special prawn dumplings

From zi char favourites and fresh seafood to Indian and western fares, you can order anything and everything to fill you up till breakfast the next day. Between its two locations, my allegiance lies with the Changi Village outlet. What’s not to like? Being there feels like you’re far away from civilisation – and with good food to boot. Love!
Must-try items: XO fried rice; chicken rice; Maggie goreng; salted egg sotong
How much: From $4.20

Nothing says late-night vibes than this cosy halal hideout at Woodlands Swimming Complex. Citrus By The Pool opens till 5am daily, so you can drop by for supper or a very early breakfast. What’s on the menu? Asian-Western fusion – I spot many dishes infused with Thai flavours, which is great for spice lovers. If you’re not super hungry, the croffles are enough to fill you up.

22. Chong Qing Grilled Fish
Who’s up for spicy grilled fish at midnight? This eatery lets diners pick their preferred fish, spice levels, and the side ingredients to go along with it (this black fungus, pork slices, and mushrooms). The fun part is, of course, the personalisation. You can go for mind-numbingly spicy or stick to safe options. Our team’s fave is the spicy fragrant flavour paired with medium spice level, which comes with peppercorns and fresh chillies. Oh, have several tissues handy to wipe off your sweat.

One of the most popular nasi lemak stalls in Singapore, Ponggol Nasi Lemak is famous for its large variety of side dishes. Don’t hesitate to add chicken wings, vegetable curry, fried long beans, fried sotong balls, and otah to your order. Hot tip: many people have sung praises for the fried chook, so be prepared to wait some time for your bird. I often spot long queues outside the stall, and it’s not even 4.30pm!

Who knew Marsiling’s industrial area hides a gem of a supper spot? This halal eatery is a haven for the North’s nocturnal denizens. Al-Ameen’s menu can cause a severe case of decision paralysis, so take your time deciding on what to get. If you ask me, the nasi goreng pattaya, with its generous portion of rice wrapped in an omelette, is enough to last you the night. Dining with friends? The butter chicken and naan should be on your table too.

What’s this? A 1950s American diner in Serangoon? Yes, your eyes aren’t deceiving you. This retro hangout is all about the vintage vibes with its red vinyl booths, vinyl records on the walls, and a jukebox. (The space is a little compact, so I recommend not hanging around too long.) Its menu boasts classic staples like burgers, chilli dogs, grilled cheese sandwiches, and milkshakes. You can also sink your teeth into all-day brekkie items. Tip: it gets crowded at night, so make a reservation to avoid disappointment.
Must-try items: all star plate brekkie; bello burger; muddy lava; big bang
How much: From $5.90

This popular destination offers an impressive selection of pratas and thosais, along with Thai-Muslim, South Indian, and western cuisines.

You don’t have to travel across the Causeway to enjoy lok lok – not when you can get it in the little red dot. And the best part? Westies don’t have to travel far ‘cos DLLM Lok Lok has an outlet right in their backyard! Yes, the name is very tongue in cheek, but rest assured, the food is legit. Choose from a variety of meats, greens, and seafood, and pair them with the available six sauces. You can’t go wrong with the salted egg and chilli padi & lime sauces. You can also get noodles, though from what I’ve been told, it’s a hit or miss. As always, your mileage may vary.

How much: $1 per stick
Opening hours: Tuesdays to Sundays, 6pm to 3.15am
Address: 511 Upper Jurong Road, Singapore 638366

Who says Singapore’s west side doesn’t have any supper spots? Have you forgotten Al-Azhar at Bukit Timah? This bustling open-air eatery is frequented by students from nearby tertiary institutions and famished folks from all corners of the islands. If you plan to visit, I highly recommend getting the creamy butter chicken masala, which can be dipped using prata or naan bread. Or, order the prata plaster and watch as the sunny-side-up is served sizzling hot.

Opening hours: Daily, 7am to 3am
Address: 11 Cheong Chin Nam Road, Singapore 599736

Fong Seng offers the beloved nasi lemak with various ingredients you can add to your plate. Top choices include otah, teriyaki saba fish, and luncheon meat. Otherwise, you can always stick to the sets – I only chow down on the variety set when I’m here. This supper haunt remains popular thanks to its affordable prices. Inflation who? We rebuke her!

(Or willing to travel there…) Gather your late-night supper club members, make your way to Ayza’s Restaurant, and satisfy your midnight cravings with pocket-friendly local and western delights. While the dum biryani, mee siam, and milkshakes are constantly raved about, I say try out something unique like soup ekor. Who knows, you might just like it.
