A&W And Shake Shack Are Set To Open At Jewel Changi Airport In 2019
Once again, the East side beats the West, with 2 major fast food chains opening next year in Jewel Changi Airport.
New Fast Food Chains In The East
A&W Singapore
First on the list, is A&W Singapore. Since their announcement of their impending return to Singapore, they’ve remained very quiet with little to no details given.

All we knew was that the A&W Singapore outlet will be its flagship outlet and it will be halal-certified, so that’s great news for our Muslim friends.
But now, it has been announced that they will open in Jewel Changi Airport, when it’s completed in 2019!
A&W used to have 5 outlets in Singapore before closing them all in 2003, much to the dismay of my parents.
Since the closure of all Singapore outlets, the only way Singaporeans could get their A&W fix was in Malaysia, where there are over 36 A&W outlets still serving their classic frothy root beer, curly fries, and the Beef Coney hot dog.

I’ve never eaten at A&W before though I do love their root beers, so I’m excited to see why my parents loved them so much.
Shake Shack Singapore
For the millennials and visiting New Yorkers, one of the most famous fast food chains in America, will be opening its first outlet in Singapore.
It’s Shake Shack!
The West Coast in the States has In-N-Out, while the East Coast held their own with Shake Shack.
Shake Shack first opened in New York serving up burgers and hand-spun frozen custard.

They’re well known for their simple yet delicious burgers, such as the classic Shackburger® – a single or double cheeseburger with lettuce and tomato, topped with their signature Shack Sauce™.
Here’s hoping that their Cheese Fries won’t devolve into the sad state of McDonald’s Cheese Fries.

Shake Shack has many outlets across the United States, and each outlet is said to have their very own exclusive menu items, and some Shake Shack outlets even have a breakfast menu!
Which makes me wonder if the Singapore outlet will be getting any exclusive menu items. Will we be getting a Singapore-inspired burger? Or maybe Rendang Fries?
Either way I’m excited to try Shake Shack.
Opening In 2019
These 2 fast food giants are set to open once the construction of Jewel Changi Airport is completed.
Jewel Changi Airport will be linked with Changi Airport Terminal 1, with Terminals 2 and 3 accessible via air-conditioned pedestrian linkways fitted with travelators.
The new Jewel Changi Airport will have 7 storeys and over 280 shops, with a good 30% of the shops being F&B outlets.
