After years of anticipation, the new Punggol Coast MRT station has officially opened its doors, marking a significant milestone as the 17th station along the North East Line, extending all the way to Harbourfront. With the station operational since December 10, it promises to provide convenience to countless commuters. However, the adjacent Punggol Coast Mall remains under wraps but is expected to open progressively over the next few weeks. Here’s everything you need to know about the mall and what you can look forward to!

A Fresh Take on Community Space

Punggol Coast Mall boasts an impressive open-air community plaza that directly links with the MRT station. This space will serve as a vibrant hub for community events, including performances and pop-up bazaars. While some may raise an eyebrow at the idea of an open-air area in Singapore's humid climate, the design focuses on energy efficiency, aligning with the green initiatives of the Punggol Digital District. Fear not—the individual stores will feature air conditioning, and the plaza will be crafted to ensure it remains airy and comfortable, allowing you to enjoy the outdoor atmosphere, rain or shine.

Stores That Will Elevate Your Shopping Experience

The mall is set to house over 120 stores, and we’ve managed to uncover a sneak peek of what's in store for the residents. Food lovers will delight in the diverse culinary offerings that include popular names such as Astons, Din Tai Fung, and Jollibee. New entrants like White Cloud Cafe—offering a tempting range of Western dishes, pastries, and coffee—are also gearing up for their debut.

Feeling thirsty? You can refresh yourself with drinks from Mr Coconut, Luckin Coffee, and try the beloved Oriental Kopi from Malaysia. Ice cream enthusiasts will not want to miss The Better Scoop, promising to serve irresistible treats.

For lifestyle and homeware enthusiasts, Daiso and Muji will be present to satisfy your Japanese goods cravings, while tech fans can rely on Harvey Norman for all their gadget needs. Plus, achieving your 'new year, new me' fitness goals is made easier with Amore Fitness, an exclusive women’s gym featuring a plethora of exercise classes including barre, dance, and yoga.
