About Oat & About | Oat Milk Gelato
Oat & About is an oat milk gelato shop on Erskine Road in the heart of Chinatown, built around one playful dare: lactose-intolerant who? Every scoop is churned from an oat milk base rather than dairy, so the entire range is plant-based, dairy-free and halal-friendly — dessert that nearly everyone at the table can order without reading the fine print.
The menu runs deep for a small gelato counter, rotating through flavours that swing from gelato-bar staples like Hazelnut Stracciatella, Intense Chocolate and Roasted Pistachio Medley to local-leaning creations such as Oriental Beauty (chrysanthemum and goji) and Kurogoma black sesame. Limited editions like Mango Sticky Rice and Burnt Banana Miso Caramel keep regulars checking back, and specialty eggless waffle chips add the crunch on the side.
Beyond the counter, Oat & About delivers islandwide — order before 6pm for next-day delivery or free self pick-up, with every order packed in a sealed insulated bag with dry ice. Bundles like the ten-cup mix-n-match party pack make it an easy gift for birthdays, housewarmings or simply stocking the freezer.
Oat & About Chinatown: Creamy Oat Milk Gelato That's Fully Dairy-Free
Tucked along Erskine Road in the heart of Chinatown, Oat & About exists to settle one cheeky argument: lactose-intolerant who? The answer sits in the freezer — a growing range of gelato churned entirely from oat milk, so creamy that most people never miss the dairy. Every flavour is plant-based and halal-friendly, making this one of the rare dessert stops in Singapore where nearly everyone at the table can simply point at a scoop and dig in.
The shop's whole personality is built around that idea. Its branding carries the tagline as a dare, and the menu names read like inside jokes — even vanilla appears as “Do you have Vanilla?”, a tongue-in-cheek answer to the most-asked question in any gelato shop. But behind the humour is a serious product: an oat milk base, proper gelato texture, and a rotation that runs to seventeen flavours and counting. It is a menu that works both for the first-timer asking whether dairy-free can really taste this good, and for the returning regular who already has a favourite.
Flavours with a sense of humour — and a local streak
The classics are well covered. Hazelnut Stracciatella folds chocolate shards through nutty oat gelato, Intense Chocolate leans on double-origin cacao, and Roasted Pistachio Medley is exactly what its product name promises: it is really pistachio. Around them sit Girl Scout Thin Mints, Lemon Speculoos, Strawberry Summer, Passionate Cacao and Earl Grey Banana Bread, plus the Chonky Series' Rizz's Peanut Butter Cups for anyone who believes mix-ins should be unapologetically chunky.
Then the range swings local. Kurogoma goes deep on Japanese-style black sesame, while Oriental Beauty steeps chrysanthemum and goji berries into a floral, distinctly local-inspired scoop. Limited editions keep regulars checking back — Mango Sticky Rice and Burnt Banana Miso Caramel are the kind of flavours that appear for a moment and vanish when they are gone. Add specialty eggless waffle chips for crunch and the picture is complete.
Tubs, party cups and gifting
Oat & About is built for sharing as much as snacking. The Two-is-better-than-one bundle pairs any two tubs, while the Mix-n-Match bundle gathers ten 100ml party cups in assorted flavours — pitched by the shop as the ultimate gift for birthdays, housewarmings or a “just because I'm craving” moment. The store describes it as a gift that won't just sit on a shelf, which is a fair description for something that will likely be gone within the week. Because everything is vegan and halal-friendly, it neatly solves the hosting puzzle of mixed groups of eaters.
Ordering, delivery and pick-up
The shop runs islandwide delivery alongside free self pick-up from the Erskine Road address. Order before 6pm for next-day delivery or pick-up, with windows available everyday between 1pm and 9pm. Everything travels in a sealed insulated bag packed with dry ice so tubs arrive still properly frozen. Delivery is free above $80, an $8 flat rate applies from $55, and smaller orders run $15.
New drops are announced on Instagram and TikTok at @oatandabout.sg — the easiest way to catch limited editions before they rotate out. Whether you call in at the Chinatown shop for a single cup or stock a whole freezer for a party, the promise stays the same: full gelato pleasure, no lactose required.
