Halal Food in Parkway Parade

When Parkway Parade officially opened in March 1984, it pioneered the concept of suburban mega-malls in Singapore. Located approximately eight kilometres east of the Central Business District along Marine Parade Road, the development combines a 22-storey office tower with a seven-storey shopping mall and basement, creating a landmark that has served the eastern coastal communities for over four decades. As one of Singapore's first major suburban shopping centres, Parkway Parade built an impressive track record, attracting 12 million visitors annually by the early 1990s. Today, the mall continues to draw crowds with over 250 stores across its seven levels, anchored by household names like FairPrice Xtra, Best Denki, Harvey Norman, MUJI, and CS Fresh. The recent addition of Kopitiam Food Hall in the basement in March 2025 brought new energy to the mall, featuring internationally recognised food brands and even a bar serving cocktails. The mall's connectivity continues to improve with the construction of a direct linkway to Marine Parade MRT station on the Thomson-East Coast Line, expected to complete by 2027. While some tenants have faced challenges from rising rents and construction inconvenience, Parkway Parade remains a cornerstone of the Marine Parade neighbourhood, offering comprehensive shopping, dining, and entertainment options just minutes from East Coast Park.
