🏙️ Discover the Cheapest and Yummiest Food & Fun things to Do Near Every MRT Station in Singapore [ Perfect for parents]
Hi! I'm a local dad and I compiled this guide to help active parents who are looking for free kid friendly places, free open spaces, playgrounds or to enjoy a drink or meal together with their young ones without going crazy over Google maps.
Cheers Convenience Store
Grab-and-go snacks, cold drinks & travel essentials the minute you step off the train. Opening Hours 7am - 11pm

Cheers Convenience Store (Gardens by the Bay MRT) FairPrice-owned 24/7 mini-mart with bargain snacks and chilled grab-and-go meals right at the station concourse
Why swing by | Like a mini 7-Eleven but with FairPrice’s better food range: chilled bentos, sushi rolls, fresh cut fruit, plus constant dollar-deals on chips and chocolates. Handy pit-stop before or after the gardens—prices beat the kiosk up at Marina Barrage. |
Opening hours | Daily 7 am – 11 pm (may follow MRT operating hours on festive nights). |
What’s inside | Chilled sandwiches & salads • Ready-heat rice bowls • $1 snack promos (watch the yellow tags) • Ice cream & frozen yogurt • Coffee machine & hot buns • EZ-Link top-up, prepaid SIMs, ponchos, sunscreen. |
Personal take | This is my go-to over the Barrage shop: same snack for less, and the chilled meal section is surprisingly solid for a convenience store. Always scan the promo rack—grabbing a family-size chips bag for a buck feels like a win. |
Parent tips | Grab cold drinks and mosquito wipes before the outdoor walk • Carry small notes for quick checkout if the contactless queue is long • Weekend mornings are calm; post-sunset crowds spike after the light show. |
Address | Concourse Level, Gardens by the Bay MRT (TE22), Marina Gardens Dr, Singapore 018953 |
