Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Whampoa Makan Place is a well-loved hawker centre, particularly vibrant in the evenings, offering a wide array of local favourites.

We note that many stalls operate primarily for lunch and dinner, with some closing or selling out by early afternoon, around 1:30pm.

While there are hits and misses, as with any large hawker centre, several long-standing stalls maintain consistent quality, such as Robert's Mee Siam and the Hainanese curry rice.

The Special Fried Oyster ($10) from Whampoa Traditional Fried Oyster is often highlighted for its fresh oysters and well-fried omelette, though some find the cheaper traditional option equally satisfying.

Be prepared for queues at popular stalls like Hoover Rojak, which can reach up to 20 minutes during peak times.

We recommend visiting in the evening for the full bustling experience and wider selection, or ensuring an early lunch visit to avoid disappointment.

What customers say

Whampoa Makan Place is a popular hawker centre, particularly lively in the evenings, offering a wide array of local dishes.

While some patrons praise the consistent quality of long-standing stalls like Hainanese curry rice and Robert's meesiam, others find certain popular dishes, such as the Hokkien mee and Mama Noodles, to be disappointing or lacking in flavour.

Stall closures, especially in the afternoon, are a recurring issue, leading to limited choices for some visitors.
