  Chanced upon this cafe during one of my morning walks in the vicinity. Checked up and found nice reviews about the place, so we went down that very evening to try out the food. The black pepper crispy chicken burger is very good. The chicken was indeed crispy, thick and juicy. Black pepper sauce was also on point and not overwhelming. I ordered Pop's Coney Dog because I saw some really nice photos posted by diners who have tried them. It was a good sized hot dog bun topped with homemade chilli beef and as you can see from the photo, covered generously with nacho cheese. This is a first time for me to have nacho cheese sauce over a Coney, as it is usually mustard sauce that I see. It was such a pity that the flavour of the chilli beef was masked by the generous amount of nacho cheese sauce that I don't really taste the chilli beef. Other than that, you can really tell that good effort was put in to make this hot dog. It looked as good as what I had seen in the photos, if I were to come by again to try this, I would probably ask the chef to go easy on the nacho cheese sauce. For each of the above, we topped up to make them sets which came with fries and a drink. The drinks - strawberry cheesecake shake and iced strawberry passion tea were pretty average. Lastly, we ordered a double scoop gelato on top of a waffle. It took a while for them to prepare the waffle, but it was so worth the wait. It was one of the best waffles that I have had in these 2 years, slightly crispy (not hard) on the outside and moist and warm on the inside. The staff are very friendly and warm. We had a wonderful dinner and will definitely be back. For me it is to try the other hot dogs, they really look so good in the photos posted by the other diners. A minor drawback of this place is that the nearest car park is at the stadium opposite (some walking needed, unsheltered) On a fine day, it is actually ok, but it rained on the evening we went, so bring your umbrellas along if you think it is going to rain.

  Props for serving up old school Halal hotdogs and shakes. Tried the classic Coney dog, the chilli on it was not bad but not overly impressive, the nacho cheese sauce was more for the yellow colouring than flavour. Fries + choc mint milkshake for additional $, but both weren't outstanding either. Milkshake was quite icy and didn't have any minty or chocolatey flavour, just a lot of unmelted choc chips. I'll say go if nearby but don't expect shake shack quality.

  Found this place via Tiktok. Went there at 11pm on a Saturday and it was packed! Luckily we managed to get a seat without waiting too long. The friendly staff (all of them) made the whole place very welcoming. Food is good and their sausages (bratwurst?) are fantastic. I had the spicy chicken bolognese that had the sausages and avocado+gula melaka milkshake that is not too sweet which is good! I also tried the meatballs and omg the meatballs are good! We also shared a coney dog and all of us enjoyed it! Ended the whole meal with some desserts and a cold iced mint tea. Food coma anyone? 😅 10/10 will come here again for midnight supper as they are one of the few places in SG that open till late!
