Gate-side French roast chicken in SIN Terminal 3
Poulet sits airside in Terminal 3, a few minutes’ walk from the central security area, serving French-style roast chicken and pastas to transit passengers who want something more substantial than a snack. It’s a full-service restaurant with table seating, not a grab-and-go kiosk, so budget at least 45–60 minutes if you’re on a tight connection out of T3.
The menu centers on whole and half roast chickens with gravy and mushrooms, plus sides like mashed potatoes, fries, and sautéed vegetables, all priced in the S$15–S$30 range per person. You’ll also see a few pasta dishes and soups, which generally land a bit cheaper than the chicken sets. Portions run larger than you’d expect for an airport in Singapore, so one shared main and an extra side can comfortably feed two light eaters.
Hours usually mirror Terminal 3’s main departures flow, opening from early morning through late evening departures, often around the first long-haul wave and closing after the last. It’s post-security, so you need a same-day boarding pass for T3 to eat here; if you’re departing from T1, T2, or T4, factor in Skytrain transfer times of around 5–10 minutes each way plus the walk back to your gate.
Food style leans Western with a French accent: roast chicken with sauce, creamy soups, and cream-based pastas rather than local Singapore staples. If you want laksa or chicken rice for under S$10, head instead to the food courts in T3’s public area landside before immigration. For a sit-down hot meal with cutlery and table service airside, Poulet becomes one of the more straightforward options in this terminal.
Tip: mains can take 15–20 minutes to come out when the dining room fills before evening departures, so tell the staff your boarding time when you sit down and keep your phone’s gate notifications on in case of a last-minute change within Terminal 3.
