Editor’s Note
Last updated 7 Nov 2026
Our take: Lickers has earned its cult following the hard way — eleven years of late-night waffles, rotating seasonal gelato, and a scoop bar that genuinely surprises.
The flavour roster ranges from crowd-pleasers like Hazelnut Truffle and Cookie Monster to more adventurous turns like Sobacha and Rosemary Vanilla, with new additions dropping regularly.
The house-made waffle cone, praised for crumbling at the right moment, is a small but legitimate detail that separates Lickers from most dessert-waffle competitors.
That said, portion sizes have drawn consistent grumbles lately — regulars note that tater tots and truffle fries arrive in smaller quantities than before, and scoops have reportedly shrunk.
The $20 sourdough pizza is not worth your money; stick to what they do well.
Service is warm on the best nights and genuinely harried on the worst — a solo staff member running a full dining floor during weekend rushes is a recurring pattern, and order slip failures happen when it gets busy.
Skip the pizza entirely.
Best visited on a weekday evening when the floor is calmer, the waffles arrive faster, and you can actually taste what makes Lickers worth the trip.
Ideal for groups of 2-4 with a sweet tooth and no particular hurry.
Signature
Waffle with Ice Cream (e.g. Mao Shan Wang or Hazelnut Truffle scoops; waffle combo noted around $14.50)
Best time
Weekday evenings or after 9PM on weekends to avoid peak queues; open until 2AM with waffle last orders at 1AM
Wait time
Waffle orders can take 20-30 min during busy periods; staffing is often lean (sometimes solo), so expect slower service on crowded nights
Price
$$ (~$5/scoop; combos around $14.50)

What customers say
Lickers draws strong repeat custom on the back of its creative, rotating ice cream flavours — standouts cited by name include Mao Shan Wang durian, Honeycomb, Pistachio, Hazelnut Truffle, Cookie Monster, and Valrhona Chocolate — paired with waffles that most reviewers describe as crispy and well-matched to the scoops.
The brand's late-night hours (open until 2AM), expanding multi-outlet footprint across Hougang, Ang Mo Kio, Telok Blangah/SAFRA Mount Faber, and newly opened Tanjong Pagar, and a generally friendly floor team are frequently praised.
Recurring friction points centre on understaffed shifts leading to forgotten orders and long waits during peak hours, isolated incidents of brusque or dismissive staff conduct, and value concerns — including portion sizes of finger food (tater tots, fish tots) perceived to have shrunk versus prior visits, and a $20 pizza judged too small for its price.
A handful of customers also found specific flavours (Rum & Raisin, Roasted Pistachio) underwhelming in intensity, suggesting some inconsistency in flavour execution across batches.

I've never had such fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth waffles before! They tater tots are good, especially dipped in the sauce. There are lots of ice cream flavours and they're all very special. The highlight was the waffle ice cream cone. The way my mind exploded when my lips touch the cone because it crumbles almost immediately. It was thick enough to hold your ice cream and thin enough that you don't have to crunch into it!<br><br>Also there's only 1 staff working and dude served everyone rather quickly. That's what I called quality work. Please get more staffs so he doesn't get overworked.

Licker's ice cream at Hougang has been one of my go-to spots for ice cream, and I've been back many times. They have a great selection of flavours, so there's always something new to try. My personal favourites are the Pistachio and any flavour with truffle—they're rich, creamy, and packed with flavour.<br><br>Highly recommended, and I'll definitely keep coming back! 👍💪👌👀

Loved the vibes, was cosy and well ventilated. Really loved that they had their own merch, a cool "tap water" feature and able to provide taste tests before choosing our selected ice-cream flavours!
