Editor’s Note

Last updated 19 Oct 2026

Our take: SOD Cafe offers a convenient, neighbourhood cafe experience in Hougang, particularly appealing for its value and variety.

We note the positive feedback on their service, with staff reportedly going the extra mile, as seen with the customisation of the Eggs Benedict.

The waffle with ice-cream and crispy fries are frequently highlighted as strong points.

However, we've seen reports of inconsistency, particularly with drinks like the matcha latte, described as powdery and diluted, and some main dishes like the Tom Yum pasta, which was found to be soggy.

It can get very crowded during peak lunch hours, especially on weekends, with a noticeable student presence.

We think it's a good spot for a casual meal or for students looking for a place to work, given the available power plugs and Wi-Fi.

Best for a relaxed, non-peak hour visit, focusing on their well-received sides and desserts.

What customers say

SOD Cafe at Ci Yuan Community Centre is generally well-regarded for its neighborhood cafe ambiance and good value, especially the student meal.

While service is often praised, with staff like Sugi going above and beyond for custom requests, some customers find the food quality inconsistent, citing soggy Tom Yum pasta and powdery Matcha latte.

The cafe can get crowded, particularly during lunch, but offers amenities like power plugs and WirelessSG.
