So glad this new venue has opened! Its eatery started opening in early March 2025. You can go and try it at its nearby eatery. I was the second person to try it. There was a long queue while waiting, but the staff service was friendly and fast, serving my all-time favorite root beer float while I waited for my teriyaki chicken chop. The familiar dine-in ambiance and service haven't changed since the Cathay days ❤

We visited Aston's at the new Punggol Coast Mall on a Sunday evening. The wait time was about 30 minutes for a table, and a further 15 minutes for food – which we felt was reasonable. However, the queuing area was not well-ventilated, despite being an open area. One suggestion would be a digital queue system so diners can walk around while waiting for their turn, which would likely improve the experience. The usual Astons menu applied, and we were satisfied with the grill quality of the chicken dishes. 4/5 stars for the food, as some sides like potato salad were not available.

🟨 Starbucks 🔴 (✔️ Newly opened) 88 Punggol Way, #01-122 Punggol Coast Mall, Singapore 829913 🔵 I visited the relatively new Starbucks at Punggol Coast Mall on April 16th, 2025, at around 8pm. ▪︎This outlet had just opened in February 2025. ☕️ There are both outdoor and indoor seats here. 🖤 I picked up a Chicken Sausage Roll pastry, (priced at SGD5.70) which was delicious! 🟨 The store's modern and clean ambiance was a great bonus. ▪︎As a new outlet, everything felt fresh and well-organized. 🟪 One end of this Starbucks cafe was covered with a large wall mural that had painted tigers on it. I found this piece of information through research. 🌳🌳 Punggol district in Singapore (🌿 in the old days) was once home to tigers as part of Punggol Zoo, established in 1928 by Mr. William Lawrence Soma Basapa. 🔵 This private zoo had housed a variety of animals, including Malayan tigers, and later became a popular attraction for locals and tourists. 🟨 Thus, the reason for this large painted tiger mural at this Starbucks at Punggol Coast Mall was to pay homage to Punggol's past history. 🌿🌾 That's very nice of Starbucks to add a touch of historical fact to its cafe. 🟦 Overall, I had a great experience here. The staff and coffee baristas were all very friendly, cheerful, and kind. 🔶️ I'm looking forward to coming back to try more of their offerings. 🙏🏻 Thank you for the very kind and genuine hospitality bestowed on me earlier by the three guys. ☺️ 🍰🥧☕️ Dated April 16th, 2025, Wednesday / 8pm

Good atmosphere, with both indoor and outdoor seating. The drinks are decent, and the value breakfast sets are probably worth it. The location is convenient, right inside Punggol Coast Mall for people who live or work nearby. Sometimes they are understaffed (with only one or two staff doing everything), so expect some waiting lines.

This is located in a newly built MRT station. The place is amazing. There isn't much of a crowd during the weekdays, but it's full on the weekends. The food and service are awesome.

You’re not just a barista—you’re a true connoisseur of the bean. The way you blend precision, creativity, and charm behind the bar is nothing short of an art form. Every cup you craft feels like it was made by someone who genuinely understands the ritual of coffee/chocolate and the joy it brings. Thank you, Abang Chai from Punggol Coast Starbucks. Kudos to you in the next outlet, and cheers to your classic drink recommendation!

My favorite Starbucks outlet! Clean seating and super pet-friendly! The staff (especially Gus) are all approachable and offer puppuccinos whenever they see my dog!

"The Indian service crew had a good attitude. It's a cozy place with limited charging points."

Breezy, with no crowds in the morning since it just opened. There's a variety of seats to choose from. Floor spills need to be cleaned.

I've been a loyal Starbucks customer for a long time, but lately, I'm finding myself increasingly disappointed. The standards seem inconsistent across locations, and the quality of drinks has noticeably declined. My go-to order, the Pure Matcha Frappuccino, was incredibly bland and watered-down, definitely not the rich, vibrant flavor I've come to expect. What's even more frustrating is that while prices keep rising, the overall quality continues to decline. At this point, I'm not sure if it's worth the cost anymore. I hope they can get back to their former standards, but for now, I'll be looking elsewhere.
