I'm a regular customer here. I always feel happy when the staff recognise me. The Vietnamese lady is very friendly. She makes very nice iced coffee. Their food is nice, and I love their coffee.

It looked promising when I passed by. Went there 2 weeks ago. Char Siew was charred and dry. The chicken was old-school canteen style, boiled and bland. It tasted just normal, nowhere near Ipoh style. The whole 'Ipoh' thing is just a marketing gimmick. The staff were friendly, though.

Love the toast here! You can see that they are very generous with the fillings. We also ordered the dried shrimp chee cheong fun, and the hae bi hiam is so good!! Salty, sweet, and spicy. Staff are helpful and friendly as well :-) Will revisit to try the other dishes here.

Fast and friendly service! Restaurant is clean and well lit. Food is excellent, with a 'Gu Zao' flavor. Wide variety to choose from. My children were able to experience tasty food and drinks from my childhood. Prices are reasonable and affordable. Set meals help you save some money here and there. Very yummy and highly recommended.

The food here is great. I usually love to order the Ipoh Prawn Mee Soup, which has a rich taste. Ipoh Dry Curry Noodles are a good try – I highly recommend them if you haven't tried dry curry. The new menu now also has egg tarts.

Very tasty fried beancurd and curry chee cheong fun. The noodle portion is very big, and the curry is not oily. Healthy drink options are available, as you can choose no sugar for coffee.

Overall, not bad.
Ordered the dry wanton noodles.
The noodles' texture is good, and the wanton skin is thin and soft with some prawn in the filling – quite good.
Char Siew can be improved, though.
The pineapple egg tart was quite good too. Coffee is okay.
No service charge, no GST.
You can try it if you have a craving for noodles and are in this area.

Super yummy Ipoh food! Food was served fast. Their signature shredded chicken hor fun and fried turnip are a must-order every time! You should also give their Shao Xin wine chicken soup a try; it has a very generous portion. They offered us their new chicken rendang pie, and it was tasty. Will definitely come back often :)

Here's the lightly edited review:
"We wanted to try Ipoh Hor Fun, and this seems to be the only option around Bukit Panjang. We ordered three different styles of Hor Fun and other noodle dishes for a broader perspective of the restaurant. Our collective conclusion is that this restaurant is not worth visiting until improvements are made.
The Hor Fun Soup tasted bland and diluted. The Hor Fun Dry came with a separate bowl of soup, which was also diluted. Comparatively, the noodle dishes here were of average food court standard but at a premium price.
As for the service, I'd expect a restaurant (this is not a food court) charging higher prices to offer better customer service. As we walked in and asked for a table, the staff directed us back towards the entrance, pointing to a pile of menus and telling us to return to the counter for our order. They weren't rude; I just want to point out that this is not a service-oriented restaurant. They could have continued the flow by seating us, brought us the menus, and then explained their ordering process. There were four staff members in total, and we were the only table on a Monday at 5 pm! There was no excuse for being too busy to provide better customer service.
Food was ordered in person at the counter, paid for on the spot (credit cards accepted), and a device was provided that would buzz when our order is ready for pickup. When I asked (not demanding) for a tissue, their reply was, 'We don't offer tissues,' in a tone and expression that made me feel I was asking a silly question. 🤦♂️
Other than a clean dining area, I can't think of any other positives to recommend this restaurant."

It never disappoints! The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. Whether I’m grabbing a quick bite or sitting down for a proper meal, the quality and taste are always on point. Portions are generous, prices are reasonable, and the staff are friendly and efficient. I highly recommend if you’re in the area and looking for something reliable and tasty.
