Tip Top Curry Puff at Bugis Junction continues a cherished 45-year tradition of handcrafted curry puff excellence, serving Singapore's beloved local snack since 1979 with the same passionate commitment to quality that began at their humble Ang Mo Kio origins. Using 18 specially handpicked spices blended with premium potatoes and ingredients, this established local brand represents the pinnacle of Singapore's multicultural curry puff heritage, creating 100% handmade curry puffs that showcase the perfect balance of crispy pastry shells and richly spiced, liquid curry fillings that distinguish authentic Singapore curry puffs from mass-produced alternatives.
The signature curry puffs feature exceptionally crispy crusts that don't flake excessively, filled with spicy yet fresh curry containing recognizable pieces of tender chicken suspended in thick, flavorful liquid curry rather than the stiff, dry fillings found in inferior products. This attention to traditional preparation methods ensures that each curry puff maintains the authentic texture and taste profiles that have made Tip Top a respected name alongside major Singapore curry puff brands like Old Chang Kee and Polar, appealing to customers who appreciate the artisanal quality and cultural significance of properly crafted local snacks.
Despite expanding from their original single location to multiple outlets across Singapore with islandwide delivery capabilities, Tip Top maintains their commitment to handmade production and traditional recipes that preserve the authentic curry puff experience for new generations of customers. The Bugis Junction location provides convenient access to these iconic Singapore snacks for both locals seeking nostalgic flavors and tourists discovering authentic local cuisine, ensuring that the cultural heritage and artisanal craftsmanship of traditional Singapore curry puffs continues to thrive in the heart of Singapore's bustling shopping district.
This eatery is notorious for the bad service.
The food is mediocre but the service is extremely atrocious. The service staff should just leave their job and go elsewhere if they think that’s not what they want to do.
The treatment they have dished out to the patrons is painful to watch.
So patrons you have been warned to stay away from this joint unless you enjoyed being humiliated or being treated with disrespect!

Sunday, 6 July, 10am. Your female staff member is extremely rude. This isn’t the first time I’ve experienced this with her. I’m working nearby, and even my colleagues feel the same. I went in this morning and saw she was there, I almost walked away, but gave it another chance. Unfortunately, she ruined my morning again with her rude attitude and lack of a smile or basic courtesy. I just asked for a food and she gave me a very rude sign language!
My colleagues and I have decided we will no longer shop at your store. That’s it

The opening shift staff today is horrible. It’s already 8:20am and he didn’t accept my order. Usually i order ice coffee earliest is 8:10am they do accept my order. But today everything is not yet including just ice coffee. By just saying “NOT YET” and turn away with no apologies nor explanation.

I wonder what's wrong with lady.
We just reach the stall and saw she is smashing the kitchenware.
The way she service us is super rude, and impatient like we are interrupting her on work.
Once we ordered , she turn around and prepare the meal, and she is smashing something again.
Honestly we have no idea what's going on to her. If you don't feeling well to work, please go home.
I've never ever seen people working in this attitude’s.
Please take action on this lady asap.

Staff was not friendly. My order consist of adding bee hoon. But the portion is similar to normal. I feel I was being cheated. It was not a very good experience to enjoy the food and I have been supporting your brand since young. Quite disappointed to start my day with such experience.

Sour taste!
SPOILT CURRY CHICKEN PUFF
bought on 27 may 23
Immediately consumed it
First mouth I thought it’s just me who knows my partner tasted it and spit out immediately
Telling me that it’s spoilt why am I still eating it
$1.90 gone is fine but the taste is so weird
Will never buy from here again

The cashier was incredibly rude and impatient, giving customers a cold stare while waiting for them to order. She then said to a customer, “You can say everything at once, I’m not unable to remember!” What kind of response is that? Is this what customer service is like? If it is, anyone can work in customer service. If I could choose a negative rating, this store would definitely get a minus five stars.

We ordered deliveroo for 2 sharing platters and 5 snacks- after waiting for 40 minutes they only passed the 5 sticks of snacks to rider who did not realize it. Rider went back to check after that and turns out they did not prepare the platters at all! Very bad service.

This chain store doesn’t seem to have consistency. This Bugis outlet always hire staff that do not bother about customers. Not attentive. Always have to call them to the counter. Also the curry puffs always not available after 6pm, which is like hours away from closing. If available, usually cold. Todays curry puff was warm though and the first time I manage to buy one after going there 3 times. Compass Point outlet staff attentive and the food is always warm.

Staff should know how to pass money to the customer, not just put the balance on the table. That's rude, though! To the Chinese lady wearing a cap: your service was so bad, and you didn't even say thank you! Please be happy with your job!

The staff at the airport are the worst. Organization leadership and HR have issues. They will close down soon. They have lost their customer base.

SPOILT CURRY CHICKEN PUFF.
Bought on May 27, 2023.
I immediately consumed it.
At first bite, I thought it was just me, but then my partner tasted it and spit it out immediately, saying, "That's spoilt! Why are you still eating it?"
Losing $1.90 is fine, but the taste was so weird.
Will never buy from here again.

Decent puffs and takeaway food here, served by helpful staff too 🙏🏻

One of the best Curry Puffs in Singapore!
Started in 1979 in the heartlands of Blk 722 Ang Mo Kio serving handmade curry puffs to its residents, Tip Top Curry Puff has now grown to a chain of a few outlets, 6 when I last counted.
The chicken & potato original curry puffs and the beef rendang curry puffs are my favourites although they have followed Old Chang Kee in offering an array of Singapore snacks like chicken wings and ngoh hiangs.

Enjoying my coffee and curry puff, taking a moment to relax while observing the bustling activities happening around me.
Tip: use a noise cancelling headset 😆 …

The smaller local curry puff chain. Nice spicy yet crispy curry puff!
The impossible rendang is decent, u won’t be able to tell it’s not real minced beef

This is a smaller, local curry puff chain. Their curry puffs are nice, spicy, yet crispy!
The Impossible Rendang is decent. You won't be able to tell it's not real minced beef.
