Goodbye, Beast! The Local Chicken‑Waffles Champion Is Closing Its Doors
After eight years of straight‑forward Southern comfort and a fearless swagger across the Singapore kitchen scene, The Beast will no longer be around. On October 16th, the restaurant announced it won’t renew its lease and will lay down its knives for the last time on November 10th.
What Went Down
- All‑American vibe, full‑on cluck‑and‑spice menu
- Big fan base with thousands of locals hollering for its famous chicken & waffles
- Rolling out on a tight lease that “couldn’t be renewed” – heart‑breaking timing!
Heartfelt Bidding‑Fare on Social Media
The Beast’s final Facebook and Instagram posts were packed with nostalgia. The owners turned it into a memory‑lane, thanking the community for the love and support. They confessed that the grand farewell party, originally slated for the last day, had to be canceled because of the lingering pandemic rules.
But you’ll still get a taste of the Beast’s legacy. To say thank you one last time, they’re running a “Buy One, Get One” offer on the iconic chicken & waffles dish. The only caveat is you’ll need to swing by in person – no ghosts or gluten‑free‑ghosts can attend.
Why This Matters
The Beast has been dubbed the “OG Chicken & Waffles” in Singapore. It was among the first local restaurants to proudly serve this legendary dish. Saying goodbye to a staple like this feels like a slice of nostalgic pie straight from the country’s culinary history.
Those who’ve digested plates of The Beast’s signature recipe will remember the days when the kitchen was buzzing and the bell that rang every time a new bowl of delight hit the table. Though the restaurant is closing, the memories and flavors linger, ready for their next stop.
How to Celebrate!
Even though you can’t have a big party in the old building, you can raise a toast (or a spoon) to the eight years of unforgettable meals. And if you’re a fan of the chicken‑waffle combo, now’s the perfect time to double‑down on the Buy One, Get One offer while the Beast is still open.
Can You Still Get the Beast’s Deal?
Just flash the swishing farewell Facebook or Instagram post when you place your order. It’s that simple.
The Beast’s Grand Farewell
- Covid‑19 was labeled the “mother of all beasts” – the pandemic that hit its business hardest.
- Social distancing forced a 25% cut in available tables.
- New rules that let only two people dine inside knocked the capacity down by a staggering 66%.
- Live music, background tunes, and mingling? Gone.
With all that, the restaurant admitted that “the essence and heart of The Beast has been lost.”
Looking Forward
That might not be the final chapter. The Beast says it’s taking a breather, regrouping, and will focus its energy on fresh projects.
