[2025 Singapore Restaurant] Travel Guide for The Better Scoop (Updated Jun)

i remember being super duper excited that there was a new ice cream place opening up a stone's throw away from where i lived, where it was known as Just Because Creamery. i distinctly remember ordering my first scoop & being super impressed by the quality of the ice cream. fast forward years later, with a successful rebranding & many more outlets under its name, i finally made my way back to The Better Scoop for my mochi ice cream fix 🥸 (my family & i regularly get our ice cream fix thanks to their takeout pints 😋) We had one scoop of 铁观音 Tie Guan Yin with a extra layer of mochi skin on top & it was so so good. the mochi skin is the perfect mix of chewy without being too thick, working as the perfect support to bring out more of the ice cream's flavour 😋 #singaporeguide#food

Tucked away in the newly opened Punggol Coast Mall and just steps from the MRT station, The Better Scoop is a cosy dessert spot that’s quickly becoming a local favourite for handcrafted ice cream and waffles. Known for its creative and locally inspired flavours, The Better Scoop offers a rotating selection of small-batch ice creams like Kyoto hojicha, chrysanthemum goji berries, honey ginger milk tea, and other seasonal surprises. Each scoop is rich, creamy, and thoughtfully made with quality ingredients that bring out bold and balanced flavours. Their waffles are just as popular — crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and available in classic buttermilk or charcoal. The combination of warm waffles and cold ice cream makes for the perfect comforting treat, whether you’re sharing with friends or indulging solo. The space itself is calm and inviting, with clean, minimalist interiors and soft lighting that make it a great place to relax, chat, or take a break from the day's hustle. And with the convenience of Punggol Coast MRT right next door, it's an easy and accessible spot to swing by for a mid-day treat or a post-dinner dessert. Whether you're a fan of unique flavours or just looking for a peaceful hangout in the northeast, The Better Scoop is a sweet little find worth visiting.

#favouriteitinerary The Better Scoop, a mere stone's throw from Serangoon MRT Station, is a delightful oasis where traditional Asian flavors are reimagined with a modern twist. One of the café's signature offerings is the chewy Nian Gao Waffle, which combines a crispy, golden waffle with chewy glutinous rice cake (nian gao) nestled inside. The juxtaposition of textures—crunchy on the outside, chewy within—is an unexpected yet irresistible combination. The ice cream selection is equally inventive, showcasing a delightful array of flavors inspired by beloved Asian ingredients. Some of the standout options include Orh Nee, a velvety yam-based ice cream that pays tribute to the classic Teochew dessert, and Black Sesame Soy Milk, which boasts a smooth, nutty richness. Tie Guan Yin, a fragrant oolong tea ice cream, offers a sophisticated tea flavor, while Luo Han Guo Longan presents a refreshing and subtly sweet pairing of monk fruit and longan. For something more floral, the Chrysanthemum Goji Berries flavor provides a gentle, aromatic sweetness, while Honey Chamomile Blue Pea is a stunning two-toned creation with a delicate floral scent. The ambiance at The Better Scoop reflects Scandinavian minimalism, with clean lines, light wooden accents, and an abundance of natural light that enhances the warm, inviting atmosphere. The space is thoughtfully designed with a plant-lined wall, creating a perfect backdrop for capturing moments of indulgence. Whether you’re drawn to the nostalgic comforts of traditional desserts or eager to explore innovative, unique flavors, The Better Scoop offers a memorable experience. With a prime location just a short walk from Serangoon MRT Station, it’s open Tuesday to Sunday, from 12 PM to 10 PM, making it a perfect spot for a sweet escape. #singaporetrip #citydaytours #thingstodo #myitinerary #localfood #afternoonteatime
