NEX is a shopping mall in Serangoon, Singapore. It holds a 4.3 Google rating from 22,397 reviews, a very large number of opinions.
A good suburban shopping mall serves the daily needs of the neighbourhood around it: supermarkets, food courts and restaurants, banks, clinics, services and shops, all under one roof and usually connected to public transport. NEX sits above Serangoon MRT station and the bus interchange, so it is easy to reach without a car, which suits shopping on the way home from work. Weekends and school holidays are the busiest times, with crowded food courts and long waits for tables, so a weekday morning or mid-afternoon is calmer. Regulars know to check the directory for the level they need, since large malls can take time to cross, and to allow extra time when parking at peak hours. Many malls run seasonal events and promotions, so it is worth checking before a visit if you want a quieter trip. Air-conditioned malls also offer a cool break from Singapore's heat and sudden showers.
For residents and visitors around Serangoon, NEX is a convenient place to shop, eat and run errands.
