Sold Out on Day One: Potato Corner's SG Origin Story at 313@Somerset

September 10, 2026
Summary: Where Singapore's flavoured fries obsession began. Potato Corner at 313@Somerset is the brand's very first Singapore outlet, opened in 2018 and famously sold out on day one, now celebrating 8 years and an industry award.

Where It All Began: Singapore's First Potato Corner

Potato Corner was founded in the Philippines in 1992, when four entrepreneurs opened a flavoured-fries cart at SM Megamall in Mandaluyong. The brand's journey in Singapore has a genuinely notable milestone: on 24 June 2018, Potato Corner opened its very first Singapore outlet right here at 313@Somerset — and famously sold out on its opening day.

Eight years on, the Filipino brand has grown to over 10 branches across the island, and the 313@Somerset outlet, tucked into the basement food hall on B3, remains where it all started.

8 Years of Flavours & an Industry Award

Potato Corner's momentum earned recognition earlier in 2026, when the brand took home the Multi-Site Restaurant of the Year award, along with a Special Recognition honour, at the QSR Media Asia Conference & Awards held at the Grand Copthorne Waterfront Singapore. To mark its 8th anniversary in Singapore and National Fries Day, the brand ran a memorable “Bring Your Own Tub” campaign in July 2026, letting fans fill their own containers with flavoured fries for a flat rate — a promotion so popular it generated over 25 million TikTok impressions.

While that specific campaign has since ended, it reflects the kind of playful, community-driven marketing Potato Corner is known for in Singapore.

Pro Tip: Follow Potato Corner on Instagram or TikTok for viral weekly deals — the brand regularly rotates limited-time offers, and past campaigns like Bring Your Own Tub tend to make a comeback around anniversaries and festive periods.

What to Order

Potato Corner's claim to fame is its “World's Best Flavoured Fries” — made from fresh, high-quality potatoes, fried to order, and seasoned with over 25 flavours to choose from, including Cheese, Barbecue, Sour Cream & Onion, Chili Barbecue, Creamy Truffles & Cheese, and Cheddar Ranch. The signature Mega Fries ($5.70) is a great way to sample a flavour, with the option to mix and match seasonings for your own custom combination.

Beyond fries, the menu spans chicken pops, crispy chicken skins, popcorn, potato wedges, nachos, and tacos, all halal-certified and served hot and crispy. It's a genuinely fitting menu for a quick, satisfying snack stop while exploring Orchard Road.

Pro Tip: Can't decide on just one flavour? Ask staff if mixing two seasonings on a single order of fries is available — it's a great way to sample more of the 25-plus flavour range in one go.
