Editor’s Note

Last updated 30 May 2026

Our take: The Gula Lab stands out for its thick, fluffy, and crispy Korean cream mochi waffles, which many reviewers find superior to typical local offerings.

The Korean cream filling is consistently praised for being light and not cloying, pairing well with various flavours like Lotus Biscoff, strawberry jam, and gula melaka with coconut.

While the waffles themselves receive high marks, some customers note that the fillings, particularly the Nutella, can be cream-heavy and lack the distinct flavour of the advertised ingredient.

Pricing is a recurring point of discussion; at $11 for two full-sized waffles (when on promotion, otherwise higher), it's considered on the pricier side for a waffle, but many feel the quality justifies it.

Seating is limited to two small, air-conditioned tables.

We'd recommend this for a quality waffle experience, especially if you're in the Toa Payoh area and don't mind paying a premium for a substantial, well-made treat.

Best for those who appreciate a lighter, less sweet cream filling.

What customers say

The Gula Lab is praised for its unique, thick, fluffy, and crispy Korean cream waffles, with popular flavors including Lotus Biscoff and Korean Strawberry Jam.

While the waffles themselves are consistently rated highly, some customers find the price point high, especially for the cream fillings which some feel lack depth or sufficient non-cream ingredients.

The mung bean smoothie also receives high marks for its quality and balanced sweetness.

Seating is limited but air-conditioned, and staff service is generally viewed as friendly and quick, though one reviewer found it merely adequate.

A bit strange to have a waffle shop in the middle of a wet market, but oh boy is it yummy! It’s pricier than your typical waffle because it’s akin to the waffles at ice cream shops and not Prima Deli…

Gosh, the mung bean smoothie is heavenly! Can totally fight with the ones in Taiwan. Don’t have a sweet tooth and I love it since it wasn’t too sweet. The waffle was also thoughtfully made by the you…
