[Updated] No-No Zone where shophouse F&B usage is not allowed
In Singapore, there are areas which DO NOT ALLOW F&B usage for shophouses. As such, you cannot request a change for your shophouse usage for F&B in those particular areas. For simplicity purposes, I refer to those areas as No-No zones. This list is updated by the government from time to time, and new locations are added.
Previously, the No-No zone for shophouse F&B usage comprised:
- Balestier road
- East coast road
- Joo Chiat road area
- Changi road
- MacPherson road
- Upper Serangoon road
- Upper Paya Lebar road
- River Valley road
- Geylang road
- Bukit Timah road/ DUnearn road
- Tanjong Katong road
- Greenwood avenue
- Sembawang road
- Serangoon garden way
- Kampong glam
- Kampong Bahru Road/ Spottiswoode park road
- Jalan yang
- Thomson village
- Bedok area
- Little India historic district
Now, new areas are added to the No-No zone where shophouse F&B usage is restricted.
- The 3 new locations where additional eating houses in shophouses will not be allowed are:
i) Thomson Village – Upper Thomson Road, Soo Chow Walk, Jalan Todak, Sin Ming Road, Shunfu Road
ii) Bedok Area – Bedok Road & Jalan Pari Burong
iii) Little India Historic District – Serangoon Road, Jalan Besar & Kitchener Road
