Located on an old street food corner on 440 Geylang Road, Kopifellas provides an upmarket version of the Singaporean hawker experience. Recently refurbished and given a brand new lease on life, KopiFellas is the new way to enjoy the street food experience.
With a large variety of beverages for anyone, from mouth-watering Bubble Teas to Green Lager beers, there is something for every taste. Unlike other hawker centres, Kopifellas and the hawkers within FellasCube actually has real (back support) seating so it feels more comfortable than the traditional plastic seat experience, all with the same options. There are at least five culinary options at the centre, all offering something different and unique to each other.
We tried a variety of food goodies, starting with a Chicken Rice, Lor Mee and a Sausage Platter. The Lor Mee we tried was better than any other have tried (so far) It was not too tough to eat and had the right balance of gravy soup and noodles.
The Sausage Platter seemed to complement what we were drinking the most, with 3 big sausages that could be chopped up and shared. With flavours of Cheese, Garlic and Original, we finishes them off quickly and actually would have ordered another plate. Our Chicken Rice was fine, but it really paled in comparison and really tasted like many others that we have had previously.
Where Kopifellas really stepped up the game is their drinks options. We were recommended to try the beers first from RedDot Brewhouse, and we had the Monster Green Larger and Balman Larger. Both were tasty and downed quickly. Out of the two beers, we preferred the Green Monster. We also had a Thai Green Bubble Tea as well to cap off the night. The jelly-like bubbles gave it a great flavour and in fact, Thuymi finished it all as it was so tasty.
If you are looking for an upbeat version of hawker food with a few quality beverages to enjoy the night, then strongly consider coming to Kopifellas for a unique night out.
