About Tip Top Curry Puff
Tip Top Curry Puff is a classic Singapore hawker stall tucked inside a bustling kopitiam in the Tiong Bahru neighbourhood, minutes from Tiong Bahru MRT. Expect bright plastic stools, the smell of hot pastry and curry, and a steady stream of office workers, residents and kopi lovers looking for a quick, comforting snack. The vibe is informal and fast-paced — perfect for a grab-and-go breakfast or a mid-morning treat.
The menu revolves around signature curry puffs with a flaky, layered crust and a range of fillings from classic chicken curry to sardine and vegetarian sambal potato. Locals appreciate the stall for consistent quality and value — it’s a popular choice for heartland breakfast runs, CBD lunch snack breaks and weekend kopi sessions with friends. Tip Top also offers kopi, teh and simple toast options that pair well with the puffs.
Because it sits in a kopitiam, seating is communal and the atmosphere is very Singaporean: shared tables, chope-ing with tissue packets, and friendly hawker banter. It’s ideal for quick weekday meals, casual weekend hangouts and takeaway for family picnics. While not a formal dining spot, its strong ties to hawker culture and neighbourhood life make it a local favourite for anyone chasing comforting Singapore comfort food on a budget.
