    This is located at the Tampines Store along Tampines Ave 10. You can take a free shuttle there from Tampines/Bedok MRT station. Parking is free and plentiful. You can even park at Giant which is opposite Ikea.

    It's very crowded during weekends and weekday mealtimes. There are quite a number of people even during weekday off-peak hours. So be prepared!

    Some of the most popular food here is the Swedish Meatballs and the chicken wings as mentioned by the other reviewers. However the Meatballs are made of beef which I don't eat. The only one time I did have it... It was quite dry. I guess it was because it was near the bottom of the tray and had been there quite long already. But the cranberry sauce that came with it was tasty. I personally feel that the chicken wings are also a tad dry but much healthier than the ones you find at Hawker Centres. It's less oily but dry because of the same reason.

    I usually take the Salmon and chips. I like the fries as they are the fat kind. The salmon is alright, just that the sauce can be a tad thick occasionally. The kids' burger meal is quite tasteless. The burger is just two dry buns sandwiching the meat. Without any sauce it's quite hard to swallow.

    However i like the system there. The self service system so that you can "tailor" things the way you like them. I also clear my own cutlery although that is not too successful with Singaporeans.

    It's usually $15 for a meal for two adults plus drinks. Of cos if you are an Ikea Member you get the free drinks thingy which is great.

    Relatively good place to rest and relax before heading the the rest of Ikea. :)

      I loveee going to Ikea ever since like 10 years ago when I moved to my current home at Sengkang. I was super excited when they opened at Tampines! (Just a 5 mins drive from my place!)

      I go there pretty often nowadays just to grab a bite. I love their Fresh Water Shrimp. Cheap and fresh. And on Tuesdays or Wednesday, their Fish & Chips (sometimes with Sambal chilli) is my favourite too!

      I know many recommended their Meatballs, but I've never tried it. Last time cause I don't eat beef, but now when I start eating beef, I can't eat pork. So never am I going to try their famous meatballs. (Maybe one day they will change to all beef or combine beef and chicken?)

      Oh ya! Their chicken wings! How can I forget! Juicy and yummmmmy!! I know its unhealthy and fattening, but how can I resists??

      No where to go, go Ikea Tampines! Best part is, parking is free!!

        Like what genesis said its crowded and works like a canteen or food court. This place you need to grab a seat first before you queue up to buy your food. Frankly speaking, its like National Service style of serving food.

        But.... I like the chicken wings! I always go there for their chicken wings. Their chicken rendang special menu on saturday taste better at Alexandra than Tampines. It has more gravy. :)

        My Dear always go for his usual - meatballs. It's a pity that I do not take beef.
