Is Lad & Dad Worth It? Menu & Prices in Singapore
From a hawker stall in Maxwell Food Centre to a full-service gastropub at Tanjong Pagar Plaza, Lad & Dad has become Singapore’s answer to proper British pub grub. The draw is singular and serious: beer-battered Atlantic haddock fish and chips, done the traditional way with thick-cut chips, mushy peas and gherkin tartar sauce.
The signature fish and chips comes in two sizes — 150g at S$19.90 or 300g at S$29.90 — with bangers and mash at S$16, scotch egg at S$12, and beef stew around S$22. There’s no GST and no service charge, which keeps the final bill honest. Chip-shop devotees can also compare the Fish & Co menu for the chain alternative, or the Long John Silver’s menu for the fast-food end.
This guide covers the Lad & Dad menu and prices — the fish and chips sizes, British classics, and the no-reservation system — plus what to order and FAQs on hours, location and value.
Lad & Dad Menu Singapore: Dishes & Prices
