Started in 2013, Citrus By The Pool is a Halal-certified café restaurant, nestled at Woodlands Swimming Complex, that serves Western and Asian Fusion cuisine. Just a 10-minute walk or short drive from Woodlands or Marsiling MRT Stations, you’re not far from a charming ambience and good food.
Seeing a lack of chill out places in the North side of Singapore, the owner decided to bring the café experience to the surrounding residential estates, offering accessibility. Step into the retro-themed space decked with large windows and cosy lights hanging from exposed wooden beams. Citrus by the pool seats up to 70 people indoors, suitable for large group/ family gatherings. Book the poolside event space for your next celebration, which can accommodates up to 55 people with access to the water playground for children.Citrus By The Pool introduces more than 20 new dishes, drinks and desserts to its menu. Let me introduce you to some of the big hits and best sellers.
Little Boss (single patty) and BIG Boss (double patty) served with Cajun fries, the chef’s speciality burger defies conventional burgers by combining beef and mutton in one patty. These Boss burgers are all about being bold and fearless in its flavours. Accompanied with crispy fried onions, sliced tomato, cucumber, crisp lettuce and purple cabbage slaw, smothered in local favourite satay sauce on toasted charcoal bun, you can expect an explosion of flavours at the first bite.
Another raved about dish is Shiok Burger (served with Cajun fries), a crispy fried chicken version of Da Burger Bomb with a spicy kick. Savour the crispy deep fried chicken thigh, sliced tomato, crisp lettuce and sunny side egg, topped with spicy chilli crab sauce on toasted sesame seed bun. This is a burger that’ll make you say ‘Shiok!’.
Don’t miss out on the Seasonal Menu till 31 October! Celebrate local taste with Laksa Pasta, Chilli Crab Sliders, Beef Rendang Bake Rice and Pandan Panna Cotta.

After trying all the dishes, it was really hard for us to pick our favourites because I personally loved almost everything I tried! I personally could not get enough of the Laksa Pasta, it’s so good and flavourful. The Chilli Crab Sliders came in close because it tasted like legit Chilli Crab down to the spice without to crack open any shells. Overall, every dish went past my expectations as I’m usually sceptical of fusion dishes and would’ve missed out on some really awesome food!
Indeed, nothing brings people together like good food! Thank you Dawn for having us over. We’re definitely coming back for more as there are many more dishes we gotta try and I’m already craving for the Laksa Pasta!
