Quick answer
Don Pie is the chicken pie first made by Chef Don Lim, founder of the original Don Pie shop, and baked today under the DonChef name at Chicken Pie Kitchen & Don Signature Crab, which he co-founded. As of October 2026 there are five Don Pie shops: the flagship restaurant at 39 Tyrwhitt Road, Jalan Besar, and takeaway kiosks at AMK Hub, Wisma Atria, White Sands and Tiong Bahru Plaza. There is no Toa Payoh shop.
If you searched for “Don Pie shop”, you probably want one of three things: the nearest outlet, its opening hours, or a way to order ahead. This hub covers all three, with each outlet’s details checked against the bakery’s own outlet list in October 2026.
What is Don Pie, and who is DonChef?
Don Pie is the chicken pie created by Chef Don Lim, who founded the Don Pie shop (“DON: Your Personal Pie Club”) at Far East Square in 2000 and dates his recipe to 1983. He went on to co-found Chicken Pie Kitchen & Don Signature Crab, a restaurant at 39 Tyrwhitt Road in Jalan Besar, where the pies are baked today under the DonChef name. Chef Don Lim still appears at the kitchen’s events. The brand’s own tagline is “Singapore’s original Chicken Pie, since 1983”.
For the person behind the pie, originaldon.com answers Who Is the Original Don?, and donpies.com sets out how the two names relate if you have seen both Don Pie and Chicken Pie Kitchen on a box.
The pie itself has a golden, flaky crust around chunky chicken, potato, vegetables and a spice blend, with half a hard-boiled egg inside. A personal pie feeds one. A whole pie feeds 4 to 6. The kitchen uses no pork and no lard, and it is not Halal-certified.
Where are the Don Pie shops?
As of October 2026, there are five Don Pie shops. One is a full restaurant. Four are takeaway kiosks in malls, each linked or close to an MRT station.

What does each Don Pie shop sell?
All five outlets sell Don Pie’s personal pies. The menu differs by format:
| Outlet | Format | Pies | Crab and seafood | Seating |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tyrwhitt Road, Jalan Besar | Flagship restaurant | Full range, plus cakes | Yes | Dine-in, pet-friendly |
| AMK Hub | Kiosk | Yes | Yes | None |
| Wisma Atria | Kiosk | Yes | No | None |
| White Sands, Pasir Ris | Kiosk | Yes | No | None |
| Tiong Bahru Plaza | Kiosk | Yes | No | Shared seating nearby |
The printed menu (February 2026) lists Original Chicken, Black Pepper Chicken and Chicken Shepherd’s pies at $6.80 for a personal pie and $33.80 whole, with Curry, Beef and Apple pies at higher prices. That was the printed price as of October 2026. Check the official site, because online prices can differ and kiosks may not carry every flavour every day. For tasting notes on each pie, the Don Pie menu and prices page on donpies.com goes flavour by flavour.
Walk in, pre-order or delivery?
Walk in when you want a few pies today. Kiosks sell over the counter from about 10am, and the printed hours carry the note “or earlier if sold out”, so go earlier for the full choice.
Pre-order for pickup when you want whole pies, a mix of flavours, or more than about 10 personal pies at a set time. You choose the outlet when you order, and you collect from that outlet.
Delivery when the order is large enough to justify it. Don Pie delivers through third-party drivers, charges by distance with surcharges at peak times and for certain areas, and its home page offers free islandwide delivery above $200. For one or two pies, several outlets are on GrabFood and foodpanda.

Bulk and corporate orders
Don Pie takes bulk orders from 100 pieces upward, including custom pies, and has a line for government and institutional buyers. Charity and school requests go by email with the item, size, quantity and date. Our bulk and corporate pie orders guide covers what to ask any bakery before a large order.
Is there a Don Pie shop in Toa Payoh?
No. Chef Don sold food from Toa Payoh North between roughly 2015 and 2021, and many people still link his pies with the area, but those stalls have closed. The nearest current shops are AMK Hub and Tyrwhitt Road. The Toa Payoh page explains the history and the best routes.
Which outlet is nearest to me?
The short version: north goes to AMK Hub, east to White Sands, the city and Orchard to Wisma Atria, the south-west to Tiong Bahru Plaza, and Jalan Besar, Little India and the Kallang side to Tyrwhitt Road. The Don pie shop near me page breaks it down by neighbourhood.
Questions buyers ask
Is Don Pie the same as Chicken Pie Kitchen?
Chicken Pie Kitchen & Don Signature Crab is the kitchen that Don Pie founder Chef Don Lim co-founded, and where the pies are baked today under the DonChef name. On this site, "Don Pie" and "Don pies" mean those pies, sold at the five outlets listed here.
Who is DonChef?
DonChef is the name Chicken Pie Kitchen & Don Signature Crab bakes under today. Every pie that leaves the kitchen is a DonChef pie, made to the original recipe that Don Pie founder and kitchen co-founder Chef Don Lim created in 1983. Chef Don Lim still appears at the kitchen's events.
Do all Don Pie shops sell crab bee hoon?
No. Crab dishes are sold at the Tyrwhitt Road flagship and the AMK Hub kiosk. The Wisma Atria, White Sands and Tiong Bahru Plaza kiosks sell pies only.
Can I eat in at a Don Pie shop?
The Tyrwhitt Road flagship is a dine-in restaurant. The AMK Hub, Wisma Atria and White Sands kiosks have no seating, and the Tiong Bahru Plaza kiosk sits beside shared self-service seating.
Is Don Pie halal?
Don Pie's kitchen uses no pork and no lard but is not Halal-certified. The flagship serves alcohol and welcomes pets, which is one reason the brand gives for not holding certification.
