Great place for eating. Plenty of shop s are open the whole day, and lots of people comes here to have lunch / dinner. The choice is vast, and everything is quite cheap. You can find dishes from all other Asia, especially some dishes from Singapour. Some shops are quite famous, but I've never tried them yet. The Thai restaurant at around 1-90 does an incredible pad Thai, and the the Chinese one at 1-76 is also great. The choice of beverage is quite vast, lots of shop offer them. No "big firm" here, everything seems to be run by families.

One of the famous Hawker Centres in Singapore. I came to try out the famous Hawker stalls that are located within the center and they did not disappoint! Definitely recommend going early as to not wait in long lines/queues. Tip: Bring your own napkins!!! This was my first trip to Singapore and I've noticed that 98% of restaurants do not have napkins, so BYON, bring your own napkins.

This is a restaurant center with many restaurants to choose from and prices are friendly for tourists. The price is not too expensive. There are many restaurants to choose from and the food tastes good. There are a lot of seats and the place looks very clean.

If you're looking for one of the best hawker experiences, come here. You'll get a variety of cheap and delicious dishes for cheap prices. My advice is to come with a friend or two, so you can share the food. Better yet, come more than once so you can sample more of Singapore's culinary delights. You won't be disappointed!

A good place with the combination of street food! Both local and international food choices(mostly local and chicken rice ) :D We came in the New Year so there were tons of people and very long queues for Hainan chicken rice and hard to find table. Many shops were closed as well. We were waiting for an hour to get our rices haha. The food was okay :) Maybe next time we can try more food

Great variety of good food at cheap prices! Tourist and family should check out all the nearby hawker centres situated in Chinatown. Not just a combination of local delights, there's also a mixture of interracial and country food.

Our first meal at 🇸🇬 and had to go to the most famous of them all Chicken rice stall at Maxwell Food Centre. The late Anthony Bourdain says the rice is so good and it is true!! You can taste the yumminess of each grain of rice 🍚 The line lining up for it is testament to how popular this is to the locals. There is also other yummy food here as well from the oyster 🦪 omelette to the refreshing sugar cane drinks. Really good value and don’t forget to bring your own tissues!!

Nice food court with lots of local food options. The two chicken rice restaurants are both good. Overall the price is slightly higher than other food court but the portions are bigger as well.

Absolutely loved it here & returned multiple times for breakfast and dinner. Great choice of foods, much cheaper than restaurants in Singapore and quality is excellent. In particular we had some fantastic hainanese chicken and prawn curry laksa. Prices aren't more than a few Singapore dollars and you can easily find tasty juices while you're here. Always busy and open reasonably late compared to other spots. Recommend!!

Newly constructed Maxwell MRT station located conveniently outside Maxwell Food Center. Cleanliness of the food center has improved throughout the years although this place might be due for a major renovation. Been visiting here since I was a kid and it never fails to disappoint me with the variety of good food. Quite sad to see some of the old stall owners getting too old and retiring or even closing their stalls for good. Young Singaporeans need to preserve this hawker food culture. I’m sure I’ll visit this place again and again.

Awesome Malay store selling affordable yet tasty food. It's so good that I bought 12 pack of food after trying it this morning! 5/5 will visit again.

I like the chicken rice from Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice. I ordered the Chicken Thigh set which is so yummy. The meat is so tender and fresh. The Curry Chee Cheong Fun is just ok. The Dou Pok and Wu Xiang is crispy and tasty. The chilled coconut drink made me cooler after drinking. It was such a sunny day that made me sweat a lots. I definitely will come another day to try out more food at Maxwell Food Centre !

You can find the best local treats here for a cheap price. It’s not fancy (tables are plastic and you’re seated outside essentially), but it’s well worth trying!

For me, this is the perfect place if you want delicious, high-quality food for little money. Portions cost 6-8-10 S$, juices 2.5, coconut 3, and beer 6$. You can pay by card or cash. It is located right across from the metro station of the same name. Here you can find over 50 oriental cuisines. There are three rows of food stalls, I suggest you visit all the rows before choosing. There are separate stands for buying various drinks and squeezing juices. I recommend this place.

I went there twice during my most recent visit in SG. This is definitely a really popular place for tourists (and maybe for locals, too?) who wants to eat meals at a cheaper price. This place has a number of food stalls selling a variety of dishes. It was quite crowded when I visited it, one for a late lunch, and another for dinner. It is readily accessible thru the nearby bus stop and MRT station (Brown Line). A person may spend ~6-12 SGD for a decent meal, more if he/she will buy additional drinks. Serving size is usually good for 1 person. Main mode of payment is cash, but many stalls do accept QR codes and credit/debit cards as well.

Always go there for the 五香。so nice and some items are only unique for this stall. The standard for the dumping has dropped but still same owner.

Felt the food has taken a slight dip after the covid pandemic. Nonetheless a great variety of food is still present with long queues at the more famous stalls.

Great place to taste a variety of local dishes. Enough variety for all types diet restrictions. Seating is plentiful with ceiling fans all over. Prices are good

Had a breakfast here, I thought there would be a lot of options. But at 8 am most restaurants were still closed. We finally had this noodle and pork rice, tasted so yum & rich. People were nice. Should go here around 9-10am when all restaurants are open.

A local hawker centre that became a tourist attraction for many. But unlike the other famous hawker centre this still has the taste of local flavour. With the use of actual utensil instead of Styrofoam disposables, the food still tastes of home. Wide variety of food and quality famous ones indeed! Weekend crowds are horrendous and queues go all the way to another building. Sharing tables may be a need so please dine and leave so the other patrons can enjoy the good food too! :)

One of the hawker centers that is worth visiting. The location is not far from China Town. This Hawker center is quite large and sells a variety of food. If you want to visit, come around 11 o'clock, so that all the stalls are open. We ordered laksa and it was very delicious, with thick sauce and quite a variety of toppings. We also bought some fried foods, the fried bananas were delicious. The Chicken Rice we ordered was not that special, I tend to like chicken rice at other shops. I also like the fried guotie, it has lots of filling, the outside is crispy and the inside is juicy. The Orange Yakult we ordered at the Juice stall was also refreshing. Standard Hawker Center prices.

Had some really good dumplings. There's different varieties and the owner is very friendly. I had the crispy sort and it's better than expected. There's also no queue because it's a new stall. Prices are reasonable and cheaper than food courts.

It’s coldplay week, maxwell food centre really really crowded to the point it’s stressful. Plan to eat Tian Tian at first but seeing a really long Queue we decided to eat something else. We ate at Maxwell chicken rice and I like it to the point wondering if the maxwell chicken rice already delicious could be tian tian be more delicious? 🤣 We also ate duck noodle that I forgot the name places. Lot variety of food, if it’s not overly crowded it surely will be a delicious journey.

Classic hawker centre in the tanjong pagar area. Decent food with some famous stalls here, notably the chicken rice ones. But dont limit yourself to those, try the other stalls too, like the wu xiang one, tze char and chinese gyoza stall. All reasonably good. Lost quite alot of the crowd since the pandemic started but that means you get your food faster and with less people to deal with.

Reasonable price food for budget. Drawback is you may need cash or 3rd party payment system, no credit card accepted

Had the famed Tian Tian chicken rice alongside fried oyster cakes. Chicken was still silky smooth and rice still fragrant. Due to the pandemic, crowd was significantly lesser and managed to order in 15 minutes. Plenty of places to sit as well in the hawker centre. Lots of other famous stalls to try too!

Highly recommend this peach gum dessert from the dessert store at #01-068. SUPER GOOD and not too sweet with LOTS OF INGREDIENTS. Loved it!

When in Singapore, going to a hawker Centre with friends is a great idea as you get to try as many of the local food. The dishes were the right portion as well. The food was also quite delicious and varied. I got to have carrot cake and fried kway teow.

This is one of my top Hawker centres, vast amount of choice of local food, regardless of your diet, you will find something for you. Honest food with authentic flavours. It can take a bit to find a table, just be patience. Very affordable.

We had lunch here with our two kids (12 and 10) and had the hainanese chicken (the famous one) and some Indian food. We had to wait in line for a bit but it was so worth it. For a very small price, we had a great meal and are considering coming here again.

Lots of good food at this food centre and is very popular with office crowd and tourist who walk over from Chinatown. Tried the fried fritters set D and green bean soup, both were delightful and nice. The tiantian lai chicken rice is a crowd favourite. Very local, very Singapore.

Not our first time at Maxwell Food Centre, but was definitely surprised to see how packed with tourists it is on weekends during lunch - undoubtedly one of the more famous hawker centres in the heart of Singapore. Seeing the snaking queues for chicken rice and other famous stalls, we decided to opt for other options and was glad I did. The Sisaket Thai Food was 4.5 ⭐️- although the basil chicken and prawn omelette wasn’t wow, the price was decent and it is something I can eat daily. Coffee queen also serves up good drinks at a generous serving, an easy 4.5 🌟 too!

I ordered two portions of hainanese chicken from two famous stalls here. And they did fulfill my expectations. Without a long waiting time, the food came and tasted delicious!

We love this place due to its close proximity to several interesting places and the food varieties. I hope the management/authorities can look into the lighting at this place as it gets really dark from 6pm onwards. Best place to enjoy the local delicacies !

Came with my partner based on a recommendation. There is every kind of food you can imagine here. i ended up getting dumplings with red oil , and steamed buns. Both were excellent. Also got a coconut drink. Place was cool, but was a bit chaotic for my liking. Would still go back.

Been here twice and it's always super crowded. Try to come early or late, but not during lunch hours (or dinner) or you'll have to compete with the crowds for seats. That said, the food here is really good! We've tried different hawker stalls and haven't been disappointed yet. Interesting drinks are also being sold here. You'll never run out of options. There's also an MRT that stops right next to it called Maxwell, so I suggest stopping there instead of Chinatown if you don't want to walk long distances.

I have tried hawker centers in singapore and i was ok with them especially the satay by the bay which is number 1 on my list. This maxwell center is the one that i would not recommend. I dont think it's clean. The food was fishy, the roasted pork tasted old, etc. we ordered a lot and the only thing that I liked was the oyster cake/pancake. Sorry.

Maxwell Food Center. Bak Chor Mee. Other than the great tastes and texture of the food, the service and poetry of movements of the chef is a sight to see. The store is clean and process efficient. The food? A classic example of Fishball Bak Chor Mee, the noodles cooked to perfection, the fish balls are soft with the quintessential snap when you bite into them. The broth is light with a surprising rich taste.

Plenty of cheap & good food. One particular stall is a shop selling dumplings called 同心居. The fried & steamed dumplings are really good with the piping hot sour soup. Another recommendation is the Beijing noodles...serve with thick gravy, really savory. Followed them from the old Margaret Drive hawker centre

The famous Tian Tian chicken rice used to be many favourite.. Now I've noticed that many chicken rice stalls offering same or even better with better pricing. Now during the pandemic, we need to help the small stalls. They suffered badly.. The famous stalls already have more than enough..

This is a great venue. Lots of food smells in the air. The streets are lively with food seekers. We came here last night to have some of Singapore’s best street food. Being in Chinatown, the shop-house restaurants offer a diverse range of mainly Chinese, local Singaporean delights, Malaysian, and a few Indian dishes. Shortly after we arrived, the street became packed with food seekers. All the diners appeared to be enjoying their food and the atmosphere. We walked the area before selecting the food vendors. Food quality varied between the many stalls. We were very happy with the food quality and taste of what we selected, and the portions were filling. Definitely worth the trip!

Was buying packet dinner for the wife after work. The place I remember from my childhood completely hidden behind hoardings at Ann Siang Hill

Conveniently located at the end of Chinatown, near the Tooth Relic Temple and Singapore City Gallery (in the Urban Redevelopment Authority). There are many food stalls to choose from, and the food offered here is very good. It can get a bit warm, as the fans are small and not all tables are under one.

Went to this hawker centre on last Sunday morning 10am for the well-known Tian Tian chicken rice. Surprisingly no queue and very fast served with fragrance chicken rice. I ordered one roasted and one steam accompanied with chicken feets. Each plate costs me SGD 5, considered slightly expensive in food centre. Food wise is nice and meet my expectation as a nice chicken rice. If you are asking me to queue 45 minutes for this, i might opted for another chicken rice stall.

White tapioca kueh freshly steamed n so soft Best in Singapore

Chicken rice!!!!!!! So so freaking good! Worth the wait in line and must get sugarcane with lemon juice! It’s a hawker center so don’t expect it to be spotless or air conditioned. Bring your own wet wipes and napkins

Lots of choices for food. Best recommended place to eat is Tian Tian chicken rice.

Great food court with so many surprises, you can find different kinds of local foods here

Singaporean love food...and if Singaporean goes here..you can't be too wrong.. chicken rice seems to be must try.

Fantastic food at affordable pricing

There are a lot of good food and also the prices are resonable

Alot of tasty food in a single place.. beyond imagination..... Exercise social distancing at all times.. Avoid peak... Be patient and be happy at all times..

One of the best hawker center in Singapore. Plenty of good local hawker food at affordable price. There are quite a lot of Hainanese Chicken Rice stalls here. No need to go the one with the longest queue. The others taste as good or even better. Greatly recommend this place for lunch or dinner.

Nice food Centre with a lot of good food

There is one stall selling authentic Thai food?? Should pay a visit to try it on especially for Green Curry lovers

Good and affordable food in one place. One can find nice kuehs, Ngoh hiang, curry puffs, and loads of other great tasting foods here! Most of the stalls are affordable too!

Variety of good good and snacks!

A food lovers paradise. Some of the best hawker food that Singapore has to offer

Food is gd

Nice vibe, good food. Hard to give it a full 5 as many things closed with Covid but would certainly go back

(Translated by Google) It's close to where I stay, so I always use it. It has the impression that it is much more touristy than in the past, but I think that there are many variations and that many shops are reasonably priced. (Original) 滞在先から近いのですいつも利用しています。昔にくらべるとずいぶんツーリスティックになった印象がありますが、それでもバリエイションは豊富だし、価格も手ごろなお店が多いと思います。

My favorite hawker center in SG

Nice variety of food.

Don't miss the popiah

Wide range of hawker food.

(Translated by Google) There are Chinese delicacies, local Chinese delicacies and all kinds of snacks, desserts inherited from the past generations of food culture, etc., at low prices and good quality. (Original) 有中国风味美食、本地华人美食和各类小吃、有历代饮食文化传承的甜品等，价廉物美。

So good

My favourite foodcourt

Many good food in this hawker centre! Esp Wu Hup Ngoh hiang guan qiang

More than just famous chicken rice but due to covid seems to have affected this place );

If u guys come this maxwell food center remember to try tian tian chicken rice.come before 11.30am as this always long queue.there also famous xiang xiang ondeh ondeh tapioca cake..

a lot of original food

Love the fried oysters pancakes there.

Mostly all the foods here are great

Maxwell food Centre, standard of foods has drop badly, foods n soup not hot enough

Good variety of affordable local hawker fare. Too many chicken rice stalls in my opinion. Leave some room for local snacks like fried sweet potato balls and fried oyster cakes.

One of the best hawker centres in Singapore

Never a boring place to go to when you want a variety of food to choose from

great food at affordable prices

Wide selection

Yeah great

Alot of nice food can found at here

This place used to be crowded,, but now in a Sorry State,, honestly the Authorities couldn't care less about it,,

Good food, affordable prices, smack in the middle of town, next to the awesome URA Gallery next door, and still has that old-school vibe. One too many chicken rice stalls, but I guess they are all good so you have your pick!

One of the oldest food centers around. Lots of tourists visit the food center. One thing worth mentioning about this food center is that the tables are relatively well spaced apart. Not a common sight as compared to other food centers. Lots of good food here and there are many different kinds of food including Malay, Chinese, Japanese , Korea and Indian food as well. The food is so much cheaper than eating in a restaurant and should visit to try out Singapore's local culture.

Can get very touristy. But definitely the best hawker Center I’ve eaten in. Relatively clean too. The chicken rice is quite good and juice is very fruity compared to the ones in other hawker places. The lamb shank / steak shop also has tasty food.

Area and tables well kept and clean. Varieties of nice good local food. Order the prawn noodles with pork ribs and the portion is reasonable. Taste is good as well. Will come again if around the area. But need to park vehicle quite a distance away, less than 10 mins walk.

Great hawker with famous stalls. Try the chicken rice, fish soup noodles, cheong fan and more. Enjoy!

The tap beer stall here is good. A bit expensive The chicken rice is also nice. Found it funny that all rice stalls use the same color and style in their panel. Probably confusing consumers looking for the famous stall.

One of the best hawker centers in Singapore. Good and affordable variety of Chinese, Indian, Thai, Japanese, Arab foods, beverages and more. Lots of place to sit inside. Located at a well accessible location near Chinatown, opposite the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple. Future development- Maxwell MRT station of TEL Line opening opposite the hawker center.

wide selection of local hawker foods to choose from. whether it's to reminisce the flavours of the old times or tasting the culinary fares bring out by the budding hawkerpreneurs, this is one of the hawker centre to visit.

Great food, many choices. Clean and well organized. Can get very busy though. I came for a late lunch so didn't have a problem, but I've seen very long lines and no seating at other times.

I visited this food centre in Jan 2020 during lunchtime and it was full of people, both tourists and locals. I had to wait to get a table. I ordered chicken rice and dumpling noodles. They tasted quite good considering the affordable prices.

Clean n affordably priced due to govt controlled rentals. But the tasty food range is amongst the best in Spore. Dun b fooled. It is not your run of the mill hawker centre mix. Some of d hawkers have yrs of tradition, dishing out secret home recipes for over 40yrs.

Great location and very nice variety of food.

(Translated by Google) Good environment (Original) 环境不错

Very few hawkers open

Not a good place for breakfast, not many choices

(Translated by Google) The food here is diversified and there are many delicacies. Among them, the most popular food is Mu Shu Kui, which is very popular. It is usually sold out after noon, so if you want to eat it, buy it early! (Original) 这里的食物多样化，有许多美食，其中最为熱門食物是木署糕，非常受欢迎，中午过后通常已卖光了，所以想吃要早点買哦!

Great food

Lots of nice and delicious food available. Spoilt for choices.

My favorite place

Nice n delicious chicken rice and black soya bean milk..

The roaster pork and char siew from 'fu shun shao la mian jia' is nice, but expect long queueing time, it can easily take at least half an hr for that

There's a variety of food to choose. Tried the century egg and chicken porridge for $3, this is alot.

Hidden gems, very good foods with lotta varietal.

Great food~~ want to explore more

Maxwell Food Centre will be closed for spring cleaning on Monday, 22nd March 2021.

There are many stalls that operate there more than 10 years to my knowledge and their food qualities do not drop while price remains

.'

loves the foods here

One of my favorites. Lots of options and craft beer 👌

Night dinner

(Translated by Google) I'm still reluctant to eat there because of the heat and hygiene outdoors. (Original) 아직 야외의 더위와 위생적인 부분때문에 거기서 먹는게 꺼려집니다.

come here to try Tian Tian Hainan Chicken Rice, i think its gonna be better if they provide soup broth as a compliment 😁

Nice and cheap mala dishes in hawker centre

Good food

Nice

Great food, many choices here.

Nice good ol' hawker food. Fish soup noodles not bad, not too salty

Good choice of foods in central location

(Translated by Google) Maxwell Cooked Food Center has all kinds of delicacies, but the one I recommend most is Tiantian Chicken Rice, which is super~good~ delicious~ (Original) 麥士威熟食中心有各式各樣的美食，但我最推的還是天天雞飯，超~好~吃~

Nice food.

Such a Nice place But Now looks horrible . Only (Tourist) will say it is "Nice" . Locals will have a 3 times thought of eating there. Rather I go across to Chinatown hawker center . Now a days hawkers are Only using the previous owner's Name to bring in the people . Food are horrible . Prices are (Ex) . What a Shame that such a (Once) a Enjoyable meals Center turned Bad . Sigh .

My favorite place for meal

Good

A place must visit for local delicious and delights food especially for tourists.

Great place to have Great food.

Love the Zhen Zhen porridge for years~~ there are many other yummy food at the hawker as well!!!

Always crowded during lunch hours cause the food is great, especially the teochew fish soup.

Chicken rice here, in my opinion, is longer as good as before..the western food at Ye Lai Xiang Tasty Barbeque still good though the price is very steep. There are no other good food to try here. The price of food here is generally higher than other hawker centres.

One of the popular foodcentre in town. Tried “Tian Tian” chicken rice (not bad), highly recommend the “ham chim peng”. Wu xiang was so so. Beer shop opens after 5pm. Must try western food “Tasty”! They open around 6pm at night (not sure about morning or afternoon opening hour) and there’s q at that time!

Lots of food choices. Eat the Tien Tien chicken rice. Still as good.

This place bring lots of memory, and there are so many stalls that I know the owners personally, when they were in China Street. Some stalls will offer their food for free, and peanut soup is one of them. I still remember when young, we used to help them peel the skin off the peanut for a small fee, which supplement our family income.

Very nice 咸煎饼. Cheap and tasty. Definitely will buy again.

The pic says it all.. what else? Very affordable and nice grilled fish at maxwell food hawker. It is at corner stall and recommend to add luncheon meat in!

Built on a former Chinese cemetery, Maxwell Food Centre started as wet market in 1929. Only in 1986, Maxwell Food Center took it’s current form as a hawker center when Government moved all street vendors indoors. Today, it’s one of the most well known hawker center in CBD and host several Michelin listed stalls. Anthony Bourdain’s praise made Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice famous worldwide but the Popiah at “Rojak, Popiah & Cockles” is most probably best popiah in town.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Not all stalls opened. Those opened selling great food.

One of the best fish porridge found in Singapore! Patiently prepared and carefully cooked to perfection! The end result is a heavenly food fare, fit for the king! A must try in a location where you will find a lot of good food! Enjoy!

Enjoyed that there are still some affordable food at the heart of the city!

Highly recommend you give Tian Tian a try if you're at Maxwell Hawker Center!

Most stalls are close at night. Tasty food still. Not crowded.

Very good, tasty and cheap. I recommend it

When it comes to hawker fanfare within our island, a few of them will come to your mind and one of them will definitely be Maxwell Food Centre. Maxwell Food Centre is truly home to many of Singapore’s best hawker stalls and always packed with both locals and tourists to taste true blue Singaporean food at very affordable prices. Among Singaporeans, Maxwell Food Centre has long been a fixture in the city’s food scene since it opened for business in 1986. Many people venture to Maxwell for Tian Tian Chicken Rice as tourists all over the world come here to queue for a plate after the review by Gordon Ramsay himself, but there is more to the food centre than that. Some of my other favorite selections include Jin Hua Fish Soup. Maxwell Fuzhou Oyster Cake. Xing Xing Ondeh-Ondeh Tapioca Cake. Popo & Nana's Delights. China Street Fritters (traditional handmade ngoh hiang is a rare find these days!). Ye Lai Xiang Tasty Barbecue. Hainanese Curry Rice and the Avocado drinks stall! Xing Xing Ondeh Ondeh has been in business in Maxwell Food Centre for more than 4 decades if i recall correctly, selling traditional homemade kueh from as cheap as 50cents that are often sold out within a few hours so do join in the queue early! Jin Hua Fish Head Bee Hoon is a Cantonese-style fish soup that is super rich with flavor as well. If you are nearby Chinatown, Telok Ayer or Tanjong Pagar, this is a very good location to visit to satisfy your hunger and cravings for some local delicacies. Seats are easy to find and the entire place is well-ventilated as well. Several MRT stations (Outram Park, Chinatown, Telok Ayer, Tanjong Pagar) are within 10- to 15-minutes walking distance. Parking is also available nearby at parallel parking lots and public carparks.

Enjoyable yummy lunch from Oriental Stall braised duck & kuey chap. Chicken thigh rice was from Ah Tai

Famous queens briyani is my favourite, the butter chicken is a must try.

Wasted time coming here. Not a single muslim stall was open for business today. Even the ones at the back. All go holiday one shot? It's not even a Friday. As if we don't need to eat. I saw others from the same community coming over for dinner but were disappointed. Ridiculous.

Can't find Biryani 47 @ Maxwell so I'll just post here. Not exactly a biryani fanatic but this one has one of the best tasting mutton and sauce I've ever tried - tender and succulent, and the sauce is so rich and flavorful. It's definitely gonna be my go-to biryani if the craving strikes again. Highly recommended. 😋

Peaceful place for dinner on weekdays. Try the Korean stall 01-49, auntie is friendly and this bibimbap is only $4.50. Super affordable rice dish with lots of vegetables and this really hits the spot. p.s can use CDC voucher too.

My wife and i came to eat these traditional desserts because many people say the best of such desserts could be found here. And they were right. The burbur terigu and the tau suan were indeed good. And cheap.

Super value for money chicken rice! Half a chicken at $12. Was my mother's day treat. Cos my gal love chicken rice.

okay, first of all, it's not that I dislike it, i think Google "star" system is not what it should be. this is market food in Singapore. so you have to level set your expectations. I had the typical chicken plate, very cheap and very good considering the price. If you are a American, order double or more portion. However, I would also recommend you to order a small or medium portion so you can try others. I love the scene and I would definitely come back again!

Large Hawker Food Center with 2 long rows of stalls. Lots of tables for people to sit at. There are lots of Hainanese Chicken stalls as that is one of the specialties of this hawker center. Not the cleanest of hawker centers, but the food is tasty and cheap. Come check it out!

Great local food in Singapore. An incredible number of options to choose from. Prices are incredible, but it's crowded. Expect to wait in line for some of the best vendors. Bring cash! Your credit card will not work here.

Hawker centre is a must while visiting Singapore! Located next to Maxwell MRT exit 2. We arrived at at 9 am, plenty of seats available but not all the restaurants are ready to serve. Fortunately, the one we wanted to try was already open with short queue. Most of the food we tried are yummy! Worth visiting👍🏻⭐️

I came here with too high of an expectation. I watched reviews after reviews on YouTube hyping this place. First place I went to was the popular Tian Tian Haianese Chicken rice. It was good but I’ve had better and cheaper in Bangkok. Tried a few other places and was just not impressed. There’s a lot of food stalls so I’ll eventually hit one that I’ll like. But don’t come with such high expectations like me or you’ll be disappointed. Only place that was good was the Teochew fishball bak chor mee. The 1 dish (dry noodle) was actually flavourful. The pics of the stores on this review were the ones that had a line up so I recommend trying them first.

Very clean food court, lots of seating as well. Super long q at the famous chicken rice shop (I was there at 11.20am on a weekday). #01-82 North & South Indian Food Soft fluffy briyani, light coloured vegetable curry surprisingly more spicy than the chicken curry. Overall taste is pretty good but price is not according the menu. Menu written was $6 but I was charged $6.50 #01-53 Fried oyster Too oily (you can see the oil seeping out) and there are some black bits means the wok is not cleaned properly before next order. 6 oysters for $6 portion. Oysters were fresh and juicy.

A few gems in this bustling food court, with some insanely cheap but satisfying stalls. Can't remember the name but the roasted meat stalls had affordable meals without scrimping on the meat quantity. If you see a long queue during lunch time, you know it's a good stall.

Nice spot for lunch, fairly busy but enough seats to go round during our visit. Good variety of hawker stalls with standard prices. Table cleaning was performed quickly and there weren't too many birds around.

Hainanese Rice J Louis The outlet is in the central area which is quite close to the entrance access from the Maxwell MRT. The queue is quite long, many locals & tourists are queuing, so immediately queue up to try it. Uncle who accepts orders is friendly, when an order comes in he will immediately informed the uncle who prepares the food. Many vendors aren't open or haven't opened yet, but still the tables in the food court are full. * Roasted Chicken Rice Medium The rice is tasty, fragrant & fluffier. Roasted chicken has a good seasoning, savory, typical of roasted chicken on Hainan rice. The broth is tasty, chicken broth is given chicken feet too. After finishing eating, don't forget to return the tray to the area provided.

Great place for eating. Plenty of shop s are open the whole day, and lots of people comes here to have lunch / dinner. The choice is vast, and everything is quite cheap. You can find dishes from all other Asia, especially some dishes from Singapour. Some shops are quite famous, but I've never tried them yet. The Thai restaurant at around 1-90 does an incredible pad Thai, and the the Chinese one at 1-76 is also great. The choice of beverage is quite vast, lots of shop offer them. No "big firm" here, everything seems to be run by families.

During my recent escapade in Singapore, I couldn't resist exploring the famed Maxwell Food Centre, renowned for its pulsating culinary scene. Let me tell you, the experience was a mixed bag, with a touch of coolness and a sprinkle of room for improvement. First things first, the ambiance of this food haven was chill vibes all around. The temperature was just right, sparing me from the scorching Singaporean heat. However, a solo traveler like me faced a bit of a challenge when it came to snatching a seat. Many tables were occupied by groups who had someone holding the table, making it difficult to secure a spot. It's worth noting that visiting with a group might offer an advantage in this regard. Now, due to the seat-seeking struggle, I tried some of the food options that didn't require sitting down. One standout had a freshly made sugar cane juice, which had a pleasant flavor and wasn't overly sweet. It provided a refreshing respite from the heat. Another must-try was the famous oyster cake, bursting with a myriad of flavors. The combination of coriander, oyster, peanut, and meat created a harmonious blend that delighted my taste buds.” Here's a pro tip: make sure to bring some cash when you pay a visit to Maxwell Food Centre. Most stalls don't play the credit card game, so it's better to be prepared. Cash is king.

We drop by here to take our brunch 🍽️ Nice place for eating, especially if your in a budget, has a wide area, table and chairs are also available. You can chose from any different stall to dine and lot of food cuisine to taste, I really love their "Mushroom Minced Meat Noodles" 😋 have a try! The best thing I observed is CLAYGO behaviour and surely it is a good rules to follow. 😉

Loved the vibe here. We arrived late at about 9. 30pm so most places were shut, and some didn't take card payments, but we were happy with the options left! Great priced drinks, I enjoyed the water chestnut. Our favourite dishes were the malay noddles and thai style chicken (from places pictured)

Nice experience as a tourist in Singapore to try their local food here. Many food stalls with reasonable price. Recommend the kaya toast and lemongrass tea. However, very hot dining as no air conditioning here…

Nice and well priced food court in the heart of Chinatown, however almost half of the food court is just Hainanese Chicken Rice or Drinks- a bit too many for one Hawker Center. However, the food here is quite good, but can get very busy and usually has no available tables.

If you want a cheap yummy meal then Maxwell is the place to go! Plenty of chicken rice stalls and other foods to choose from. You get your food instantly. Best to go around lunch time when the best ingredients are used by the stalls.

Most of the best stalls sold brand n all to foreigners .. the food just tastes off from the usual local taste. Walking around at least 70% of the stalls chefs aren't local... sigh, old generation retired and have no family to take over. Even the tea from a stall I bought from is off! .. Not coming to this hawker again.

A very unique experience nothing like where I'm from. The food I took was great and for only 7 dollars, and there were a lot of options to choose from, some are probably better if the long lines are any indication. A bit crowded and noisy if that is less your thing.

Really liked this food centre. Nicely placed within Chinatown and lots of food stalls including drink stalls available. All very well priced and under $8 SGD

If you are looking for the local food court to experience it then this is it. I think it's known to be one of the better ones but the food is pretty basic for obvious reasons. I wouldn't say it compares to similar things in other parts of the region or in East Asia. Generally speaking it was underwhelming. I got the chicken rice from the best known seller and a roast and barbeque pork combo with greens from another place. And a fresh coconut (that was warm). I would consider the chicken rice decent but not as even as good as the same thing I could get almost anywhere in Asia or America. It's very affordable and there are many options so I think you could do well coming here instead of a restaurant, but I think you will get better quality from the right restaurant locally. Although generally speaking Singapore food isn't my favorite. It's just not as fresh or local due to their food imports. But this rating is adjusted for that

I went during weekend evening for dinner, not many stores open. I believe the weekdays will be crowded and more choices. A lot of choices, which you can definitely find good 👍 food there. Here is convenient, few minutes walk you can walk to chinese Buddha Tooth Relic Temple and Indian Sri Mariamman Temple. It will good to walk before 6pm slowly around this place and you can find nice food everywhere.

Rubbing elbows with the locals! I always have loved eating here. If it's good for Anthony Bourdain, it's good for everyone. A taste of Singapore and the region.

One of the well known hawker centres. This one hosts many of the local favorites while being accessible for tourists. The michelin starred Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice is one to try here but I'd recommend going around the other stalls too!

Maxwell Food Centre in Singapore is one of my favorite food centers. It's renowned for its diverse and delicious food offerings, including local favorites like Hainanese chicken rice, char kway teow, and more. It's a must-visit for food enthusiasts looking to experience authentic Singaporean cuisine. Note: the food center could get a bit crowded at peak times such as weekday and weekend lunchtimes

You can select the size of your meal S-M-L. Soft and smooth chicken, so I recommend ordering chicken rice or only chicken. Step to order Tian Tian: 1. Get in line 2. Order 3. Payment (cash only) 4. Get note 5. Sent note to staff next order point 6. Join your meal Maxwell food center has a point for cleaning your hands and tray return point After finishing your meal. They have a big coconut with soft coconut meat.

This place is a classic street food, hawker style eateries in Singapore. Amazing variety of places to choose from, all authentic Singapore food including soup noodles, fried noodles and Hainanese chicken rice. Highly recommend visiting! Great quality food at an amazing price.

What else more is there to say. You can find anything. The stalls I wanted to visit were closed but found some great food anyway.

It's a good spot for budget food in the city center but it can get very busy and finding a table would be a struggle then. Food is pretty good there but not worth staying in long lines imo.
