Reviews of Alexandra Retail Centre (ARC)

R. K.

A little mall with lots of food options. If anyone wants to be away from the crowded major malls, this is the place to be. There are lots of restaurant selections, a supermarket and lots of other retail and service shops. It is also conveniently located along the Alexandra Road stretch, where lot of people can visit after work. Another great perk is the free parking after 6.30pm, so that we can spend more on food instead. Highly recommended place. 👍

It's okay, but didn't manage to find a toilet with baby facilities nor baby room there, so just a heads up should u visit with a baby

L. S. H.

A very well kept mall with a good mix of F&B and retail outlets. Many of the shops have been there for years. Enjoy the experience, particularly with the good service from the NB shop and liked the shop, selling nothing but socks. Had a good coffee session at Curry times, served nice kaya buns abd kopi o with a old friend.

A. G.

Small mall located at Labrador park. It has a mixture of food, clinic, dental, pharmacy and some kid stuff but not much thing for shopping..

C. T.

This is a great place to relax after you spend time at the Labrador Park. The event hall is usually busy, especially those discount books and there's even a shop that cleanse your precious branded bags.

G. T.

Quite a few choices restaurant and cafe to choose from with easy access through a linked sheltered bridge from Labrador MRT station. There's even free access to WiFi as you connect to wireless@SG!

S. K. I.

Decent small mall with good food options and has grocery NTUC and many other fast food chains as well. Office crowd primarily.

H. A.

Love this place. Got lot of choices for food. Wished I work around here.

Z. C.

overall not bad just not really much things to do except eat

L. P.

Small and cozy mall with an assortment of food places and different coffee/tea choices. There's a FairPrice here as well. Mostly frequented by office workers.

S. I.

It has many shops and several places to eat. Not too big but it's fine. Specially for families!

J. T.

Basic necessities available and childcare and music centre for those working adult with young child. It is a far cry comparing with Habourfront centre and Vivocity, the nearby shopping mall.

j. t.

Quite a boring shopping centre with numerous restaurants for the office crowd. Nothing noteworthy. Even the NTUC supermarket here sells things at a more expensive price as compared to other NTUC.

B. S.

Clean hygienic best in service. Njyed having my lunch here. U have multiple options here as well for c9ffee n many more. U shud visit.

E. C.

ARC is really a place that is designed to serve the working folks in the area, especially those at Mapletree Business City. That said it does have quite a variety of food options there, from simple bakeries, to cafes, to full-service restaurants. There's also a supermarket if you are looking to grab some groceries or home essentials.

E. C.

Plenty of food options, easy to get parking lot. And shopping for groceries and Healthcare products are easy.

A. p.

One of my favourite places to hang out. Usually it is quite quiet, except during lunch time. Will say have a couple of shops but not as many as other shopping outlets. However, there are a variety of food options

S. G.

A nice mall in the password panjang area very close to the maple tree Business Centre. It has its standard share of restaurants and a fair price as well

S. L.

Mostly standard food places to cater to office workers.

K. S.

Place is for people working nearby. We have lots of food options in ARC, only missing is a decent food court. But overall a very useful mall. We have two bank branches, money changers, hyper mart and loads of fast food local and global. Lots of bus options operating city wide from outside stop. Hard to get a cab in evening after 9pm. I find this place very useful and everything is easily available nearby due to this mall.

W.

A small, generic mall. Mostly offers food joints, a couple or retailers, some banking services and a supermarket and convenient store. Probably convenient for workers in the adjoining offices and located just next to the MRT station. Sadly lacking any kind of public indoor seating.

P. B.

Good place to shop; Getting a cab here could be tricky. Although there's a taxi stand, the cab has to come in and there's usually a long line at peak hours when you need it. Need more taxi's here!!. Few restaurants, couple of pharmacies, clinics, food places etc ....convenient place for quick shopping. Best way to get out is taking a bus across the street.

M.

The mall management is very intelligent to attract footfall by waiving parking charges for every weekend. As a result, I’m surprised to see human traffic on weekend afternoons. The FairPrice supermarket, McDonald’s, KFC, Canton Paradise and Coffee Bean stand out among the mall tenants.

R. S.

It caters more to the office goers so don't expect to find a lot of shopping options here. Better check the directory first. But you can get the essentials and you have a few good eateries as well.

K. C.

It's a mixed development with Mapletree Business Park. There isn't much food options there other than fast food, snacks and restaurants. There is no food court. Nice if you want a quiet place to have lunch in the evening. The McDonald's and Kfc seems popular with students who are studying.

A. C.

Many shops and restaurants in a compact little mall. You can get your meal fix from fast food to fruit juice stalls, to proper chinese restaurants. Shops and supermarkets are also readily available, so you can always grab what you need on the way home from work.

D. A.

Lovely place for tea break at Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. PeraMakan is excellent for a bento peranakan meal, Wok Hey and Stuffed It are good for take outs. The fruit drink stall and Soup Spoon are great too!

P. M.

Relatively boring 2-storey shopping centre focusing mainly on eateries to serve the office crowd. Usual range of shopping-mall food available: MacDonalds. Stuff'ed, Wok Hey, Encik Tan, KFC, Pizza Hut etc

L. G.

Chocolates and Heavenly Wang coffee are here!!! My quick stop for coffee and shopping. Love this place. They have several options. Cant wait to go back.

A. L.

Shops are reasonable. Fairprice, some food places.

K. K. T.

The place is slowly evolving to have more offerings after office hours. There are quite some changes on the F&B scene with the exit of Delifrance and some other shops on level 2. Daiso replaced KFC/Pizzahut. Quite a strange change, we shall see if it works out . I personally wouldn't be thinking of shopping Daiso if I was visiting ARC, but others may very go for just that. Parking during weekday evenings public holidays and weekends are free though.

U. R.

There should some bench to be provided.only two bench I found in this mall. one on first floor and 2nd one is on 2nd floor. And mostly occupied.

J. F.

Great variety of restaurants and takeouts. There's Indian vegetarian, Taiwanese buns, Peranakan, Japanese, almost all the popular fast food joint and more.

N. A.

Good place for a meeting up over a coffee or tea break during weekdays. Avoid lunchtime.

V. C.

Nicer place to get most of the retail needs in 1 place. The food court above have a wide variety of options to try.

A. Y.

Free parking on weekends, PH and after 6pm on weekdays. Nice to hang out at coffee bean or Macdonald's

H. h.

Hassle-free quick dinner options. Usually end up at Old Street BKT. Howecer decided to try that Has place for a change. Credible sushi, but don't hope for the spectacular. Credit for convenience too. And did I also mention Free Parking after 7 on weekdays?

I. W.

We usually come here on weekends since the parking is free at the adjacent building. There's a small supermarket, few outlets and some restaurants and fast food restaurants. Sometimes we just come here for the McDonalds' drive through service

R. G.

A good place for quick shopping visit during office lunch hours, since it situated in the in the centre of CBD, surrounded by my commercial organisation/office towers. NTUC Fairprice is the icing of the cake, since one can shop daily essentials during lunch hours, to optimally utilise lunch hours and have more time to spend with family. Besides, it has lots of eating options, including many restaurants serving indian food.

J. T.

An interesting place that offers cheap, good food options for workers working around this business park that is slowly growing over the last decade. Interesting place to hang out after work for a chill beer.

B. K.

Lots of Indian restaurants and other coffee shoppers for hang outs to have a nice talk with colleagues and friends..not a great place for window shopping and other things. You can find Indian, Chinese, Korean, Japanese and other food joints

N. “. N.

For a more quiet and intimate dining experience, this is a perfect place. It's not too busy and There are alot of options as well! There's always some promotion going on in the center of the mall. Check it out, there might be something you fancy.

S. S.

Lots of eateries. You will probably find an eatery if your preference. If not, there's a 7 eleven and fair price. So you probably won't go hungry. Apart from that, there are quite a few shops. It is located 3-4 minutes away from Labrador Park MRT, walking. Landmark is Maple Tree Business City (Google office).

O. Y.

Celebrated my birthday there.

D. F.

A pretty tiny mini shopping mall created primarily to serve the working class in the nearby Mapletree Business Park, as well as PSA, etc. Have quite a number of F&B that lead to different choice in food and drinks from different part of the world. It have most of the things that a busy working class need.

C. K.

Nice place to look for good restaurant options. You also have a 711 and fairprice for grocery.

P. H.

A pretty tiny mini shopping mall created primarily to serve the working class in the nearby Mapletree Business Park, as well as PSA, etc. Nothing much to see here, though it's pretty quiet in the evenings, as well as weekends.

K. L.

A small mall, mainly on f&b, but close earlier ard 830pm plus. NTUC supermart is available. Great thing is that car park is free during weekends and weekdays after 630pm.

V. C.

Basic mall with a selection of more essential stores and larger number of F&B given proximity to offices. No major chains like Uniqlo and Harvey Norman but it does have Fair price, Bata and a lot of restaurants, as mentioned.

J. F.

A mall mainly filled with food & service retail units (i.e. restaurants and banks) to serve those working in the nearby Alexandra Tech Park and Maple tree Business Park. Not much else for shopping, although there is a deceptively large Fairprice on the ground floor. It's connected to Labrador Park by covered walkway.

K. L.

Mostly office workers, weekend or night time can be empty. But there is a MRT station just outside the main door. Do not confuse this centre with the other Alexandre Shopping Centre

B. L.

Great place for dining, nearby carpark free on certain hours of certain days

D. S.

A good selection of restaurants and retail outlets. A lot of offices nearby. This is a good place to grab lunch or pick up some groceries on the way home. MRT next door.

S. V.

Nice outlet with many options for food, gifts shops clothes and even ntuc fairprice. Nice spot for anyone working at MBC or nearby to hang out with friends and colleagues or for some Friday shopping.

D. W.

Has a variety of choices to compete with the Mapletree Business City restaurants. I like that there's a DBS that allows cheque drop off. Can hardly find these around. There's also a 10-minute haircut place that's usually always ready for you to walk in for a trim. However, signs pointing to MRT don't seem prominent enough so may be challenging for people not familiar with the inside of this building.

B. L.

Small mall but having good quality nice restaurant and shop. Parking at MSC beside the building. Nicely decorated and busy during weekday

M. N.

Right outside of Labrador Park MRT. Quite some nice eateries to choose from. Groceries shop, pharmacy, convenience store available etc. but the directory machine is not helpful though.

T. Y.

Small shopping place with a few eateries. It meant more for the office workers working in this area. Weekend parking is free for your info.

J.

Not a very crowded or cramped place. Some of the cafes and coffee shops (especially Spinelli on L2) has an aircon problem, so check ur levelnof comfort before you order and settle down. Spinelli was the worst in the last several visits tested with no aircon, which leads me to think they just turn it off to save cost. The coffee bean place was good though and all the rest of the f&b and retail places.

W. H. L.

Ok place. It's a reasonable walkway/gateway to maple tree business city with free parking on Sundays. Not that many interesting shops though and the Fairprice is small.

C. Y.

Self contained place with essential amendities including supermart, phone repair shop, ATMs, DBS bank, fast food outlets and a few decent eatries. Easily accessible from Labrador MRT Station.

P. L.

Sited at the junction of pasir panjang road and Alexandra road junction. Prominent outlet is NTUC fair price and MacDonald fast food outlet. Remembered there is Nike outlet that is special catered for their own staff purchase. Although it is conveniently located but not a exciting place to be.

T. S.

A number of f&b, and number of store (including clinics and beauty) Also has fair price as well. Highly recommended.

D. C.

Big bright and clean. Singalore does shopping well and this pace is no exception. Just be aware that the taxi line when leaving can get very long. Consider getting an Uber or local equiv.

R. K.

Great food shops and entertainment quite

g. n.

A good variety of food and small shops, DBS and a Fairprice supermarket. Serving mostly office staff from Mapletree Biz. Good for a brief stopover. The Sarawak Kolo is a good choice for a quick meal.

V. L.

BUKIT TIMAH is the tallest mountain in the Singapore, beautiful, full of history and nature. Not to afraid of the altitude, I'm a 74 year old retiree still be able to reach the summit. If I can climb sure you can.

Q. L.

Despite its small range of shops, this mall has a mix of anchor tenants (NTUC/DBS Bank) and specialty/boutique shops that continue to draw small crowds to it. I particularly find the Old Street Bah Kuh Teh Restaurant and Vanilla muffin shop the highlights of the mall. The female boss of Vanilla muffin shop can be found there baking muffins from scratch almost every day, and you get good taste/value for just $1.2/$1.3 per muffin (their muffins taste comparable to those ridiculously priced $3 muffins from Twelve Cupcakes, although they are lacking in presentation). For a hearty and reasonably priced meal that is sure to leave you feeling filled to the brim, visit Old Chang Kee's Curry Times for large servings of chicken served in various styles (Curry, soya sauce, curry mint, etc.).

H. T.

A perfect refuge from the maddening metropolitan crowds during weekends and public holidays for families with young kids and elderly grandparents! You could expect to lead a much slower pace of life and almost stress-free encounters, compared to the crazy hustle and bustle within the same Mapletree Group managed shopping centres like Vivocity and Harbourfront in the southern precinct of Singapore... The laxed crowd control within the ARC annexed to the main PSA Centre has of late been given rise to some less civic-minded parents for allowing their young kids to use the main mall as a speeding circuit for indulging in scooter racing in brazen anarchy !!!

C. L.

Small mall attached to PSA building and Mapletree. Mostly focused on restaurants and eateries and has a supermarket as well as a few other shops.

S. W.

Nice mall. Not much for a place for shopping. But has multiple food outlets.....vegetarian, halal, fast food, ....

Y. K. S.

This place is quiet and not crowded even during the weekends. The options available for food is small but good enough.

T. K.

Good weekly sales. Every week (mon-fri) a different type of sales

P.

Eatery are mainly located at ground floor and crowded during lunch hour. After meal can go to the nearby Ikea.

J. A.

Good place for dining with a fair amount of options, NTUC available. Few shopping options which is logical due to the many office buildings around.

A. P.

2 storeyed mall, which have many food courts and purchasing places. Not at all busy. Just near Labrador mrt station

C. T.

Vibrant as many office workers during lunchtime, place is not big but cosy.

L. Q.

Shenton Medical Group indeed lovely!" COVID19" vaccination! Try ENG Wantan dry noddles.

R.

It’s an okay mall. There’s not much to do but there’s a variety of food options. there’s also an NTUC, but it’s small.

M. L.

Lack of options and quite boring

S. W.

There are not many crowds, so people who don't like the excitement can stroll around freely. It is also a great place to have dinner and chat with family or friends.

H. W. S.

This place is quiet, with offices on the top floor. During lunch time, most people come here to eat, both Chinese and Western.

K. H.

It wasn't very popular due to coronavirus restrictions, but I'd like to visit again after restrictions are eased.

T. T.

The shopping mall near my workplace has a supermarket, bakery, and restaurants, so it's convenient for shopping after work.

j. I.

Small shopping center with all services, although in smaller numbers than in other places. At the exit of the Labrador park metro. Made for those who work at mapple tree

J. O.

This is my first time here. There are some shops here for shopping, mainly connected to office buildings. There are quite a lot of people during lunch time.

R.

Handy mall for nearby residents and office goers. Small selection of eateries , essential shops and clinics available.
