Find the best dim sum in Singapore in this 2025 dim sum guide – whether you’re in the mood for a dim sum buffet, dim sum high tea, pushcarts/trolleys or even dim sum for dinner!

Where can you find the best dim sum in Singapore? Whether you are looking for dim sum pushcarts/yum cha trolleys, dim sum buffets, or places that offer dim sum at dinner (as opposed to the more traditional lunch dim sum), we round up all the best dim sum in Singapore, with Michelin-starred dim sum on one end of the scale to the most affordable dim sum in Singapore. Do note that many F&Bs now offer dim sum delivery, so if you have a favourite dim sum restaurant, check their website to see if you can order a dumpling delivery. As die-hard dim sum lovers, we’ve hit up many of these spots and dish on must-try dim sum delicacies at each dim sum restaurant!

To be fair, what constitutes the best dim sum in Singapore is really subjective. You may want traditional dim sum offerings, or perhaps it’s the ambience that matters most to you. When we dine with the kiddos, we especially love visiting restaurants with dim sum pushcarts for a unique and memorable experience. With that said, we find it tough to find kid-friendly dim sum restaurants in Singapore. However, no matter where you go, kids generally love dim sum (har gau and xiao long bao are both winners in our family!). While some places have special yum cha treats for kiddies, even the poshest restaurants will accommodate well-behaved kids.

Whatever dim sum you are craving, we cover all the options in our ultimate dim sum in Singapore guide! If you just want a restaurant where your kids can play while you enjoy your meal, be sure to check out our guide to the best kid-friendly restaurants and cafés with playgrounds.

Tim Sum vs Dim Sum vs Yum Cha

Some say dim sum, others tim sum (it sounds the same when you say it out loud) while others call it yum cha. It’s essentially all one and the same–small portions of steamed or fried dumplings or small dishes that are traditionally served with Chinese tea.
