Eighteen Chefs Value Meals Prices Singapore 2026

The eighteen chefs value meals price story is simple: this is a chain built for tight budgets, with student meals reported from S$8.80 and a signature cheese baked rice listed at S$11.10. One honest warning up front: Eighteen Chefs publishes no prices itself, and the latest third-party listing flags its own figures as unverified, so treat every price here as a guide and check at the counter.

What counts as a value meal at Eighteen Chefs?

A value meal here means a filling main for about S$15 or less, or a main plus a side and a drink for under S$20. That is not a marketing label the chain uses. It is my working line, drawn from the latest listing, where most mains sit between S$11 and S$15 and the cheapest starters cost S$3.00 to S$4.20.

Two things make the chain genuinely cheap by Singapore standards. First, the signature dishes are also the cheapest ones, so you are not paying extra for the famous plate. Second, the student and NSF route drops the floor to S$8.80, per a 2026 western-chain comparison, which beats most food court western stalls. If you hold a valid pass, that is the first thing to ask about.

Student and NSF meals, the cheapest way in

Student and NSF meals from S$8.80 are the headline budget claim in a 2026 comparison of western chains, which also notes Eighteen Chefs now runs just 4 outlets. Bring your student pass or 11B, ask what the current student set includes, and confirm the price before ordering, since the chain publishes no set menu online and the offer can change by outlet.

What are the best value mains at Eighteen Chefs?

Cheese Baked Rice at S$11.10 leads the list, and it is also the dish the chain is known for, so value and quality line up nicely. Beef Bolognese at S$11.80 is the cheapest pasta, and the cheese baked spaghetti and fusilli at S$12.20 and S$12.60 give you the same baked, cheesy idea through pasta instead of rice.

For a heartier plate, Carbonara with Sous Vide Egg at S$13.00 and the Salted Egg Crispy Chicken Burger at S$13.00 are the sweet spot, and the BBQ, Teriyaki, and Crispy Chicken mains at S$14.20 round out the under-S$15 set. Past S$15 you are paying for steaks and seafood, which are treats, not value picks.

How do you eat at Eighteen Chefs for under S$20?

Pick a value main, add one cheap side, and pick the cheapest drink, and you stay under S$20 at listed prices. The table below adds the listed prices up for you, and these are estimates, not confirmed set prices, since the chain publishes no combos and the listing itself is unverified. Skip the milkshake and the sharing platter if the budget matters, since those push a solo meal past S$20 fast.

My favourite under-S$20 build is Cheese Baked Rice, Garlic Bread, and Iced Lemon Tea at an estimated S$17.70. Swap the tea for plain water and you save more, and if you are a student, ask about the S$8.80 set first, since it beats every combination here.

*The chicken build lands just over S$20, so swap the fries for Garlic Bread to drop it to an estimated S$20.80, or skip the side and stay at S$17.80. All totals are sums of listed prices, before any service charge or GST, and the listing is unverified.
