Collins Menu Card

The collins menu-card is a one-stop Western grill card: appetisers and salads up front, meats and seafood in the middle, burgers, kids meals, and desserts after that, and a long drinks list at the back. Prices run from S$4.50 for Smoked Sea Salt Fries to S$24 for the Seafood Risotto on the islandwide menu, all before 10% service charge and GST, and the card changes a little from outlet to outlet, so the version at your mall may not match this one exactly.

What is on the Collins menu card?

Think of the card in five blocks. First, appetisers and salads: Roasted Potato with mentaiko dressing at S$6, Smoked Sea Salt Fries at S$4.50, Cheesy Mayo Fries at S$6, and Truffle Parmesan Fries at S$10, finished with Parmigiano Reggiano. Second, meats: the Signature Grilled Chicken Chop at S$15, the Roasted Half Chicken at S$18, the Signature Roasted BBQ Pork Ribs half slab at S$17, the French Duck Leg Confit at S$20, and the COLLIN’S All-Day Breakfast at S$18.

Third, seafood and burgers: COLLIN’S Fish & Chips at S$18, Seafood Risotto at S$24, and the Classic Wagyu Double Cheeseburger at S$20. Fourth, kids meals, all served with soup, a pork bratwurst, watermelon, and juice: Sunshine Platter and Happy Fish Time at S$13 each, Tortiglioni Fiesta at S$14, and Atlantic Salmon Alfredo at S$15. Fifth, drinks and desserts: soft drinks at S$4, water from S$2.50, Remedy Kombucha at S$10, bottled beer at S$10 to S$12, house wine from S$10 a glass, and a Ben & Jerry’s single scoop top-up at S$3.

How is the Collins menu card laid out?

The card reads in the order you’d actually eat. Appetisers and salads come first, so you can pick a starter while the table settles. Meats follow, since they’re the core of the menu, and the chain marks its signature dishes clearly, with the chicken chop flagged as the house star. Seafood sits in its own block, then burgers, then kids meals, so families can jump straight to the section they need without scanning the whole card.

Two details on the card are easy to miss. First, several dishes carry a mark showing they’re made with sustainable ingredients or sources, which is a chain-wide theme, not a single dish claim. Second, the footer line on every page of the menu states that all prices are subject to 10% service charge and prevailing government tax, and that photos are for illustration only. That footer is why your bill runs higher than the card, and why the dish in front of you may not look exactly like the photo.

What are the cheapest items on the Collins menu card?

If you’re eating light, Smoked Sea Salt Fries at S$4.50 is the cheapest line on the card, followed by Roasted Potato and Cheesy Mayo Fries at S$6. For a proper main on a budget, the Signature Grilled Chicken Chop at S$15 is the floor, and it’s a full plate, not a snack, with roasted potato, porcini mushroom ragout, salad, and a sauce. Pair it with a S$4 soft drink and you’re out at S$19 before service charge and GST.

For kids, the S$13 Sunshine Platter and Happy Fish Time are the cheapest full meals, and they bundle soup, a bratwurst, watermelon, and juice into the price, so there’s nothing extra to buy. Third-party listings also report cheaper Collins eating at the kopitiam level, but on the restaurant card itself, S$15 is the cheapest main, and there’s no budget set menu printed on the islandwide card.

Does the Collins menu card differ at Common Grill stalls?

Yes, and the gap is big. Common Grill by COLLIN’S is the kopitiam version of the brand, with stalls at places like St George Road and Hougang. The card there is shorter, the format is counter ordering, and the prices run well below the restaurant card. At the Hougang Mall opening, the Signature Grilled Chicken Chop was reported at S$8.90, against S$15 on the restaurant card, and a mixed grill with chicken chop, pork chop, bratwurst, aglio olio, corn, and salad was reported around S$15 at St George.

Expect trade-offs at a stall: fewer sides, simpler plating, takeaway charges (reported at S$0.90 a set at one stall), and no wine list or dessert counter. What you keep is the core grill cooking and the sauce choices. If the restaurant card feels steep, a Common Grill stall is the honest cheaper way to eat the same chicken chop, but don’t expect the restaurant card’s full range there.

Restaurant prices and kopitiam prices are not the same card

This is the mix-up to avoid. A price you saw at a Common Grill stall won’t match the restaurant card, and a restaurant card price won’t get you the same dish at a stall. Check which format you’re standing in before you compare prices, and check the outlet’s own card, since even restaurant cards differ, with Mandai pricing several dishes S$1 to S$2 above the islandwide card.

Where can you see the full Collins menu card?

The chain publishes outlet menus on collins.sg, with separate cards per outlet, which is the only way to see your outlet’s exact prices. The Mandai card and the islandwide card are both published there, and they differ, so grab the one for the outlet you’re visiting. In the restaurant, the printed card at the table is the final word, and it carries the same service charge and GST note as the online version.

If you’re planning a visit, check three things on the card before you go: whether your dish is on your outlet’s card at all, since cards differ, whether the price matches the islandwide or Mandai version, and what the service charge and GST add to the total. A S$15 chicken chop lands around S$18 once 10% service charge and 9% GST are added, so budget with that in mind.
