Dated review from a visit some months back. Twice we ordered from here their budget meal - the first time they didn't include the rice although it is clearly shown on the menu that the rice is included as part of the deal, while the second time even in the early afternoon they said this budget option is not available.
Why bother signing a contract with Kopitiam and showing you have a budget meal if you're not going to follow the rules? I understand times are difficult but a contract is a contract. Kopitiam management - please look into this!

Disappointing Portions, Overpriced for What You Get
Be careful when dining here—the food is not charged by weight but rather per piece or small portion, making it incredibly expensive for what you get. Dishes are picked with only a few pieces per serving, and you’ll be charged anywhere from $1.00 to $2.90 per portion, which adds up quickly. The portions are miserably small, and the value just isn’t there. Definitely not worth the price
