Dabba Street Tiong Bahru Plaza: Menu, Location and Photos
If Dabba Street has a flagship for the central south, it is the Tiong Bahru Plaza outlet. It sits right by Tiong Bahru MRT in the basement of the mall, and it pulls a mixed crowd all day: office workers at lunch, residents from the Tiong Bahru estate, and a steady stream of delivery riders. Among all the outlets, this is the one reviewers talk about most, which makes it the easiest to judge before you visit.
Searching for Dabba Street Tiong Bahru Plaza usually means one of three things: checking the menu, reading reviews, or finding the hours. This page covers all of it, plus photos, the address, and how to order for delivery or self-pickup.
Getting to Dabba Street Tiong Bahru Plaza
The outlet is at 302 Tiong Bahru Road, unit #B1-K06, on the basement level of Tiong Bahru Plaza. The mall sits directly above Tiong Bahru MRT on the East West Line, so you barely go outdoors between the train and the counter. That MRT connection is a big reason this outlet stays busy. Drivers can park at the mall.
Address: 302 Tiong Bahru Rd, #B1-K06, Singapore 168732
Hours: Monday to Sunday, 10:30am to 9:30pm
Dabba Street Tiong Bahru Plaza Menu
The menu here is the standard Dabba Street lineup, identical to every other outlet. You choose one of five formats, the Dabba Bowl, Biryarito, Pita, Roti, or Biryani, then pick a protein and pile on toppings, dips, and sauces. Nothing on the board is exclusive to Tiong Bahru, so regulars of other outlets will feel at home.
What this outlet is known for, going by delivery reviews, is the grilled chicken bowl. One repeat reviewer swears the grill chicken bowl never fails, and another calls this the best Dabba Street outlet because the staff read order comments and serve generous portions. Egg mayo and butter chicken also get named as favourites. Prices follow the chain menu, with pitas from S$6.80 and bowls at S$11.50, and the website self-pickup deal brings chicken or vegetable biryani bowls down to $7.90.

Dabba Street Tiong Bahru Plaza Reviews
This outlet has the richest review trail of any Dabba Street location, mostly from foodpanda delivery customers. The overall tone is enthusiastic. Reviewers praise the variety, the portion sizes, and the flavour combinations, with several saying it beats their expectations for mall food. The comment about staff reading special requests and giving good portions comes up more than once, which suggests the kitchen here pays attention.
The honest complaints are worth knowing. One reviewer noted a smaller chicken portion than usual on one visit, so consistency can wobble. Another reported a biryani container arriving with the lid split and sauce leaking, which is a packing issue rather than a food issue. One diner felt egg mayo and tikka did not go well together, which is really a combination choice rather than a kitchen fault. Taken together, the picture is a strong outlet with the normal ups and downs of a busy kitchen.

Reviewer photos from this outlet show the familiar Dabba Street assembly counter and colourful built bowls. The grilled chicken bowl, the most talked-about dish here, photographs well: char-marked chicken over rice or greens with drizzled sauces.
Ordering from Dabba Street Tiong Bahru Plaza
Walk in and order at the counter, use website self-pickup, or get delivery through GrabFood, Deliveroo, or foodpanda.

If the outlet shows as closed in your app in the evening, that is probably why.
