Lego Brickshop at Tampines Mall Level 3. Finally one lego shop at east! Friendly staff and the shop is clean and neat.

Tampines area are popular to peoples because there are 3 shopping centre: Tampines One, Century Square and Tampines Mall. The most popular I went is Tampines Mall because there are shops which are my preference, good foods area and alot of fast foods. Century Square and Tampines One also have alots foods and restaurant. Near to Tampines Interchange and Tampines Blue Line MRT and East West Line

This mall has lot of restaurants, food court to fast food eateries that will definitely meet your financial budget. Recently we tried the food at 'The Hainan Story' and ordered three dishes and two cups of hot tea, in total we paid $36.20 nett. Even though I am not a true fan of lamb dish, but I personally found their Ah Lor claypot Hainanese lamb stew tasty and good. The meat was tender and the soup was favourful. Another dish, Egg Fried Hainanese Chicken rice with fried chicken cutlet. The generous portion of fried rice can serve 1-2 persons. I preferred their grainy firmed fried rice texture. However I found the breading crust coating the chicken cutlet too hard and dried. As for their Mama Wee Hainanese Curry rice with 'Kou Rou' (means stewed belly meat). Included in the dish, you can select two more side dishes; egg and stew vegetable. I gave my two thumb up score for the stewed meat and veggies.😋

This has been my favourite mall since I was young... Love this place a lot. You can find many things there... Nice place to dine, chill and shop... 👍👍👍

Tampines mall is a good shopping mall suitable for 3 generations to have family bonding. It also forms a part of my sweet sweet childhood memory.😍😍😍

I recently visited Tampines Mall, and it was a fantastic experience! The mall has a great layout, with spacious corridors and plenty of natural light, making it a comfortable place to shop and hang out. The stores are well-curated, offering a great selection of fashion, electronics, and home goods. The food court is also excellent, with a wide variety of local and international cuisine to choose from. The mall is also equipped with modern facilities such as elevators and escalators, making it easy to navigate.

The most crowded of the 3 malls located at Tampines mrt station. Maybe it is the large Kopitiam food court that draws quite a bit of the crowd here.

It's a 5 minute walk away from my HDB place, it's a home for me living in this area with left and right Malls wherein you can find everything you need. For a busy person it really goes with my life style.

a mall that has an incredible variety of shops including many restaurants, bookshops and more! it is conveniently located next to tampines mrt and bus interchange, making travelling here easy and convenient. some of our favourite shops here are seorae and burgs. we would definitely recommend coming here with your friends or family!

Decent shopping here with branded outlets and ample halal restaurants.

A heartland mall which is an integrated transport hub. Hillion is located opposite Bukit Panjang Plaza. Connecting from Bukit Panjang MRT station, it also has a residential apartments right above it. Basement 1 is the floor with street foods, restaurants and a NTUC. Ground level has a outdoor podium, Mcdonalds, Saizeriya, Coffee Bean and Yole at one of the entrances. Walking to the end will bring you to Best Denki. Beside it is an escalator that will bring you to level 2 and bigger restaurants like Sushi Express, Dian Xiao Er and Aone Claypot. Level 2 is where there is a Seoul Street where the food here aren't really Seoul nor much options. The only Seoulish restaurant is a Korean family restaurant. Right next to it is the integrated bus interchange. Heading up is a Kopitiam, 幸福堂 and tuition centers. Pretty adequate place for all that you need to look for. During this Covid19, passageways are blocked for one way entry and exit while ensuring everyone checks in and scanned for temperature.

Wonderful place to hang out with friends and family

Went here to buy gifts and noticed that new shops have opened. Checked some of it but bought only the necessary ones💸 The mall opened around 10am but mostly the stores inside by 11am. Additional info: Free masks collection ongoing (Aug 26-Sept 26) and available here located on 2nd floor, just need to present utility bill either paper/phone copy.

Tried the new Yogurt rice drink. Very refreshing. Normal sugar is the right sweetness. Both Oats yogurt and smoothies yogurt are nice. Will try berries soon.

Slightly crowded most days I visited. It's not bad but it's definitely really overwhelming with the unstoppable horde of peons that crowd and line the stores at every corner. Sometimes, it can get a little claustrophobic at times.. especially if you're looking at the queues and lines of people that thong the escalator in a long, snaking queues up each and every floors.

shop , drink ,eat ,watch movie,facial and hair treatments also popularbook store.what ever you want can find here. One - stop service. Very satisfied.

This place is not very big but have many wonderful food here. Highly recommended.

Actually, it's not a big place. But having this Japanese restaurant and kopitiam are not bad. Isetanat shopping is also quite alright. Strange thing is that now it's GSS, but not many shops are participating.

Fantastic place with lots of shops and a cinema to boot. It's near 2 other shopping malls as well if the shopping wasn't enough. Tampines Hub is just a 10 min walk as well if even more shops (who knew?) alongside a library, soccer field and much more

It was a great shopping mall with a great food arcade.

Great shopping experience. Especially Loyd from the Shoe Repair place

Liked this place. Can find national brands that you wanted here without going orchid. Can walk around from Tempiness centric to Tempiness 1 where MRT station. There is shuttle to IKEA at the Tempiness MRT. Kids enjoyed Pokemon gaole game and Toy R us. There are Korean restaurants as well. Only cash, ‘pay now’ and Nets are able to be paid at yang xiao xien mango ice. It was frustrating since credit visa wasn’t working for payment.

There are three malls next to each other. Great location, next to Tampines MRT ( Green Line and Blue Line ) Good place to go.

Really just went here to buy stuff at LAC Tampines Mall. The mall is quite familiar to me as I often come here years ago. There's a lot to shop here and quite convenient just 200 meters away from Tampines MRT. If you ever come to Tampines, make sure you come here and give it a visit, for entertainment, shopping and food shops here. There's Pasar Malam here just outside the mall when I came here 1st week November 2023 so I decided to try foods outside. Overall. Tampines mall is a nice place to visit on the East side of Singapore.

The SafeEntry procedure into the mall was poor managed. Those scan and checked in also have to walk through long chain of empty queues before allowing to enter the mall. A great wasted of over 3 mins walk for nothing.

There are three Malls we enjoyed shopping for, and visiting F&B cafes

Nice plafe for shopping. A lot of things to look for here.

Not so crowded and essential goods/services are all here. Like shopping at Closet Lover and Cold Storage?

Good location i.e. next to Tampines MRT Station and 2 other mall within walking distance.

Crowded. Nice selection of stores. Only issue is there is oy one fire exit.

Prepare to join in the snake queue to enter into mall!

Good for neighbourhood malls. Have supermarket and cinema.

huge big mall, but super crowded

One of the main hub point. Comes with many retail and dining options. Had our lunch at Big Fish Small Fish and it's definitely yums. Basically you get everything you want, if not head over to the nearby malls.

一个很棒的超级市场，人流不断。地点佳是最重要的因素，且各种生活所需都能在这里找到。

很好，买得到自己想要的东西

Good tenant mix

It has a variety of shops here including a NTUC at the basement. The foodcourt is located at top level next to a sheltered outdoor play area with a drinking fountain nearby. The stage next to the play area is available for booking to hold private functions. During COVID-19 CB, entry to the shopping mall is next to McDonald's, or the entrance nearest to MRT exit.

大商场可以走一天

Don't understand the effectiveness of the social distancing measure taken by the management when making shoppers go round n round n round before entering. Puts people off in wanting to even enter the mall. Whats the big deal? Got gold inside?

The crowd management is very bad, please add more SafeEntry QR codes!

Got crowd

Very popular mall among the neighborhood! Located at the heart of Tampines next to MRT station.

Bustling with life as always.

Loved shopping at H&M... however .... it is closing down by end of this month ?

Very near Tampines MRT station

Busy place but lots to see, eat and shop

Not very populated now

Just don't go during weekends and public holiday if u value not getting infected.

Not good parking location , not online delivery friendly

Last time so easy to go to the shopping mall now only one entrance to go in l want to take taxi l will go a big round

OK

Only 1 entrance cause long q and walking distance also long , other shopping already open 2 entrance stupid management

Good food

The best!

Queue to go in during the circuit breaker is extremely long and mall is very crowded on weekends and off office hours. Poor SafeEntry procedure.

Alot of variety of food. Can't compl6

Insane crowd and quite claustrophobic 😅 Doesn't that seem like Singaporeans care that there's a pandemic still ongoing. Fun for those who enjoy long queues.

Didn't enjoy my hotpot seafood vermicelli as much like the ones I had at Jewel, the soup was rather bland even after adding the light soya sauce. But my frens enjoyed their food😄

Very huge place with convenience of public transport, shopping and eating. Great place family outing

I visited here 1 week ago, this place was a suburban shopping mall located at Tampines Central 5 in Tampines. There were provides a varied mix of shopping, dining and entertainment options to meet the needs is of middle-income consumers living and working around the bustling regional centre. I enjoyed being here and gives myself lots of aspiring day to buy new shopping needs as well as my family too! 🛍️🏪

Quite a variety of foods to choose., almost any food you know in ASEAN countries is available. Food court is typical Singaporean style. The mall have NTUC, library, swimming pool, gym, running track and others facilities you had better experience by yourself :-)

Hassle free parking...huge local supermarket....and it has all the brand outlets that I frequent. From the mall, very assessable to all the banks and government offices nearby.

It's our most favourite destination and we like to frequent it over and over again.. It has everything in the world that u can ask for under one roof.. Its a shopper's paradise.. I just love it..!!

A great place for shopping. You can find almost everything here. Great choices of shops you just have to look around and stroll

Tampines Mall Food Court is very expensive after renovation. Tea at $1.90 and Hawker Chan chicken rice at $8/- are too expensive for a kopitiam. Can you imagine all the food Courts are getting expensive especially after the renovation. I wonder how a low paying staff going to eat ??? Singapore will become a place for rich and above average people. They don't seem to care, just keep paying according to the demands. Is the society going in this manner???????? Please have some thoughts for the poor and average people. Thank you for your attention and all the feedback. Do have 💛 heart ❤ for the people concerned ??????????

Very interesting place So pretty and colorful. Very tasty 😋👍 Ordered the tamanho en shake and Ordered the 🍓 toufu cheesecake

Best mall

Not many people

Still d best place to shop n dine.

Crowded. Good selection of products.

(Translated by Google) still alright (Original) 还可以

Very crowded all the time.

Convenient location, Wide range of items. Good food stalls and restaurants. Good choice for shopping and eating out.

great place to chill, many f&b and apparel shops, but not a lot of spaces to sit down

Lots of eateries at level B2, unfortunately, most of the food stalls offered take away only. Ground level restaurant is better, lots of variety to choose from, oriental or western foods. I have visited Dian Xiao Er, roasted duck is a must to order. Kopitiam food court is at level 2, I like their desserts 🍮. If you don’t mind to paid a little more, Hillion mall is really a food paradise. I also eat at the bus interchange canteen. Surely I will return to explore for more.

Management of hillion Starbucks should look into their staff because bpp Starbucks has better service hands down (but no seats hence I walked over).

A smallish mall with a supermarket, lots of food options be it fast food, food court,ctakeaways or restaurants as well as a few clothing shops, household item shops etc. The top floor has many kids tuition centres. Mall is easily accessible as the Mrt station is right at the doorstep.

Love the beans party here. Great selection of food and drinks

My favorite food at hillion mall, eat fresh and yummy 😋 😍

To me is a nice mall and convenience for me after work around 9.15pm I can have my dinner there few stalls i always visit but not the food court cos,.is to late.l like the popcorn at b1👍

Crowded shopping mall in bukit panjang. Quite a new mall.. most shops are open. Located right at bukit panjang mrt and lrt. Bus interchange is also connected.

abit confuse to locate shop due to the bus interchange in the middle

Attached to Bus BPanjang Int

Biggggg

Great shopping location. Parking can be challenging

Pleasant journey.

Nice place with good food options

Many shops Open

Alot of makan choices!!!

The best thing is that we can get all our essentials there.

So much food options

I can bought what i realy need here at hillion mall...

Nice

Good and efficient mall with cool design and all the amenities.

Nice mall with plenty food joints. Link to MRT.

One of the two malls in Bukit panjang. I dont see big shopping brands here. Many food outlets.

Nice place although I need to explore a bit more. Seemed small.

(Translated by Google) Fine, fine. You can't complain (Original) Schön schön. Kann man sich nciht beklagen

You'll LOVED the atmosphere, the crowd, the space, the people who manage the SMM and most importantly the surrounding. After many years of spoilt by Orchard Road shopping, I just realized how easy and convenient to get most of the things you would like to have in ONE awesome Mall. Be very very careful.....once you are in, you may not want to leave.

Distancing need random check,hope Covid19 in check

Food food food!!!

B1 is usually full house, better to go straight to B2 directly after entering car park.

Shopping mall... M Bus terminal n mrt Station... All under 1 roof....

Great place to shop and dine.

Good

You can find halal restaurand. Like Pastamenia, Torigo, Nasi Ayam President,Tuk Tuk Cha and many more. When I'm there just cannot decide which restaurant to go.

Japanese bento set consisting of teriyaki chicken and takoyaki is delicious 😋

Good food. Nice place.

I stay at Bukit Panjang, generally i will prefer Hillion Mall because there is a fairprice that open 24 hours, which is convenient to get your daily needs besides that everyone know there is a 7-eleven. A KOPITIAM that you can choose a number of food varieties from for lunch or dinner, i will go there for the western stall. If you want atas one also have, genki sushi is newly opened in the house... and many more, explore for yourself.

Nice place with nice food

It's quite limited qshops type but it's a very nice place to bring kids to!

Why all toilet in Spore not design for muslim use that is urinating bowl has a tap

Many eateries here in Hillion Mall have great promotions. Like Dian Xiao Er, 30% discount for dine-in between 11 - 12.30, NTUC good discount for veg, fish, fruits.

A lot of variety of shops, but too crowded. A lot or shops had been there for years. Not a time to visit at this kind of situation. I cannot see any safe distancing enforcement. Maybe it's because there are too many people and I didn't see them. will avoid for the time being.

Long time never come here, alot of eatery and nice mall to shop. Very crowded as there's a few mall around the areas

This place is fully loaded with all the essentials.. Century square and tampines 1 are also beside only... Very comfortable place to get everything at one shot

Good selection of shops and restaurants. Basement got alot of food selection, and also a supermarket. There's also a cinema and arcade for entertainment.

It's such well thought concept by the malls management in bringing in tenants which practically cover all the families/households needs such as food, clothings, furniture, books & stationaries, electronics/electrical n hardware appliances,cinema, phones/gadgets etc. That you need not look across the street.

Made more swanky than before. Glad to see the stores doing well still. A little crowded, but moving human jam.

Many different recognisable stores are at the mall, and the place is relatively clean, though one toilet stall did have toilet paper littered around

Nice

Superb shopping there lot of stuff you can find

Seemed pretty crowded! Lots of food choices and saw a supermarket and some ATMs. Pretty decent spot

Nice Mall

Great mall with great selections.

Good Shopping Experience!

Nice place to hang out though crowded

Nice place to shop around. Have variety of food outlet.

Crowded

Alright so far, with the typical SafeEntry procedure in place.... Quite orderly....

Crowded even on weekday...WFH, families n Friends meeting....looks like good time to sneak out from WFH..

Good air-conditioning

Many shops hit it's so crowded .

Food is decent...the service could be better.

Shopping with family

Everything under one roof.😀

Business as usual

Good shopping centre with alot of shopping items n eateries

Always like tis place, good ambience,good food..nice ppl ard..

Great

Good

Good,clean,strictly follow Covid19 protocol

It's good that they have improved the control at the entrances to ensure crowd control and safeentry. Inside is quite well spaced. The upper floor corridors are a bit too narrow with kiosks but manageable. Inside, the main escalator going up for Lvl 1 is the only one there so people have to walk up the escalator if the other one is broken, which can be dangerous.

Nice mall in the eastern side of the island with lots of nice food to try out.

I had not visit Tampines Mall for a long time. Found some new stores n eatery open. Interesting n enjoy the food. Plan to visit more often.

The best mall in Tampines. Never a dull moment here. Never!

All time favorite place to shop & eat just about anything

Has many new shops and is a good place to visit

Staff are very friendly, nice experience.

Very crowded shopping mall that served Tampines resident. Has decathlon, Uniqlo and major brands in this mall. It is located just next to the MRT station. Very easy to find.

Well equipped mall with all facilities - supermarket, clothing stores, stationary, theatre, restaurants, fast food joints.

Well alots of things c and shopping too reasonable price good quality

Great mall to hangout with lots of coffee shops, restaurants, eateries, movie theater and etc

It's like other malls in Singapore, complete with the usual types of stores and eateries. But on a Sat during the year end school holidays, there's visibly larger crowd. Nice feeling to see many people in the mall in this festive season and many people are visibly in cheerful mood. A pleasant visit for me who live in the western part of the country.

Quite crowded last time we visited. Overall big mall with plenty of shops and dining choices.

More shops east to shopping, there are 3 mall in 1 area n close to mrt stn n bus interchange

Has a bit of everything for affordable prices. Great for families, groups of friends or just by yourself, to enjoy the shopping, Cafes, gaming, restaurants, gym, and even a picnic area outside the mall. If you want a quiet place, better pick a time during the week in non-rush hours.

Like the overall wide range of shop types to meet different needs. The addition of escalators for upper floors really help human traffic as well as circulation of patrons to those other shops. Big carpark capacity helps too. It may be more ideal to have standing areas to allow quick meals for those who buy from eatery stalls at basement.

Tampines mall has gone through multiple changes over the years since the first time I shopped there, which was >10 years ago. I have to admit, I like the older layout, but the current one is fine. I hope they don't butcher the layout of the mall like what has happened to Century Square. R.I.P. Superior Century Square.

Great variety of shops and conveniently located but can be very crowded at times.

Its a good place to shop as its got lots of snack stalls at the basement, food court on level 4 and a cinema too. There's also a music instrument shop and departmental store in between the other levels. McDonald's is on the ground floor, facing the train station.

Today I read an article about the rudeness of the boutique staff and it has gone viral as far as Malaysia and other Asian countries. Please teach your staff to be polite to anyone, especially the elderly. Maybe your boutique is desperate just need people money and make sales so you forget to teach your staff manners! The manager you appoint will destroy your business because he/she overstates it as if the boutique belongs to him/her! Very shameful and disgusting treatment!

Level 4 femaletoilet had a cockroach looking bug. Disgusted. Please take action. Seems to be a problem in the toilet as I see dead ones on the floor too. Picture was taken on Sunday, 25 Dec 10.40am

So crowded on Sunday. Line to both parking entrance were long. Had to wait for more than 15 minutes to get to the parking. It was a busy mall. Good selection of shops.

The mall is an exciting place to visit. Wide varieties of goods and latest products. It's an ideal place for all ages. Go and see for yourselves. Enjoy the ambience.

Despite the large crowds forbeing Chinese news years, there were lots of shops that can cater and entertain people for a couple hours. Decent food/chain places were nice and it has variety to the overall area.

One of the three malls near Tampines MRT. Not a lot of stores. Place is small and crowded during weekends. It has cinema on top level. Overall, nice place for meet up and shopping.

Whatever you need, you can get at Tampines mall. Toys, groceries(though the queues can be frankly ridiculous), snacks, quick bites, electronics, music equipment & movies are just slme of the things available here. Mall can feel a little cramped and some of the shop layouts leave plenty to be desired. Happily, this mall doesn't really show it's age. It's been pretty well maintained & thankfully it's facilities are in always in good repair. Parking is a pain during peak hours but the mall is easily accessible via taxi, mrt & bus too.

It's a lovely and very big mall. Amazing place for shopping lovers. Lots of options to eat as well. Vegetarian options are also there. Various grocery and food marts are also available along with clothing stores and electronic stores. Must check out when you visit Singapore. Connectivity is good too. Always hustling with people.

Many shops, restaurants and education centres here. Can get pretty crowded even on weekdays and especially weekends

Amazing mall with alot of shops

Visit Tampines Mall several times before. Big hub with many shops. Clean toilets and easy access

Tampines Mall is cool. Great vibes and local mall shopping options. Dont forget to visit the other malls here too.

Came today with my wife. Thought of sharing the Signature Halibut meal but it seems that the food is nice and we bought another plate. Haha. Send my regards to Miss Fiza and the team for their teamwork. Kudos!

Came here for jewellery shopping. Lots of jewellery shops from all the brands. Taka offers the cheapest diamonds in comparison. As usual parking space is almost always limited at peak areas. But do note that the turning lane to the carpark if really tight. You literally have to make a u turn to enter.

Highly crowded. It's always crowded irrespective of which day you visit it. However it is cleanly maintened... Lots of restaurant to choose from and shopping can also be done. You can find all the variety to shop. Easily accessible by MRT and bus.

One of the favorite mall in sg. There are a lot of shops here. There is even a Toys R Us. The mall has been upgraded and renovated a few times so as to keep it updated. Basement level are more with food shops and groceries. The mall is just opposite of Tampines Mrt. There is a nursery toilet available too. Wheelchair accessible too. Can be quite crowded over the weekends.

Always excited whenever I come here. I will open my eyes big n make I won't miss something good. My hubby will always walk quickly in shopping centre....hahahaha. That's why I have to be fast in order to follow his pace. Well we manage to go to starhub n singtel on time for the phone. Awesome place to shop.

This is next to trains and has lots of great shops and variety of eateries. Very modern

the fact that when doing escalator repair work , they dont turn off the “working escalator” so that people can go up and down the escalator easily. instead they leave one running for customers to go up and block off the other one completely. this is not the first time this happened. do you not know how inconvenient it is for people to have to walk around the other side of the mall just to use the other set of escalators ?? just turn off the escalator temporarily so that people can go up and down. the lifts wont be too crowded as well.
