There are many exciting concerts and sports events currently happening, or in the pipeline for 2024, here in Singapore. Whether you’re catching Taylor Swift or the upcoming Bruno Mars show, or you simply find yourself near the National Stadium, drop by one of these nearby restaurants to satisfy your tummy before or after your concert. This list of best Stadium food places goes beyond Kallang Leisure Park and Kallang Wave Mall!
If you’re looking for a fancy dinner spot before catching a concert, check out Song Yue Taiwan Cuisine, a fairly new Taiwanese restaurant at Leisure Park Kallang. Song Yue departs from the usual street fare, offering home-style Taiwanese dishes that extend beyond the typical oyster mee sua.
One must-try on the menu is the Farm Chicken with Spring Onion ($18.90++/$33.90++), which comes with a mountain of finely chopped spring onion atop tender chicken meat. They also have Ah Ma’s Rice Vermicelli and Taro Soup ($19.90++/$32.90++), starring fine rice vermicelli from Xin Zhu served in a hearty pork bone broth brimming with sliced pork belly, lala, shiitake mushrooms, and taro chunks.

At BlackGoat, you can fill up on hearty burgers and high-quality steaks of restaurant standard before catching a concert. Located in Jalan Batu, the no-frills hawker stall is headed by a 24-year-old chef who’s previously worked at Burnt Ends and three-Michelin-starred Zen. The menu changes from time to time, though you’ll find signature mainstays such as Chicken Burger ($14): white pepper fried chicken with chipotle sauce, zat’ar, and fries. Their Cheeseburger ($15) is equally delicious!
Bonus points for their location: BlackGoat is a five-minute drive or 15-minute bus ride from National Stadium. Make sure you come by earlier as there’s almost always a queue from 6pm.
