The beloved Spanish treat of fried-dough pastry (its origins are debatable) is truly an underrated snack in Singapore. A perfect churro is crunchy on the outside, and soft and dough-y on the inside. On top of that, no churros experience is complete without a sweet dip – preferaby chocolate.

While it might not be as widespread as the phenomenon that is bubble tea, there are some pretty decent places for churros in Singapore. Whether you're looking to get a little wild on the dips with bold flavours or comfortable enough to settle for the churros-and-chocolate classic pairing, here is where to hit up the next time the craving hits hard.

The Spanish cafe concept from the Philippines has finally made its way to our shores. Its specialty? Authentic Spanish churros. Made from scratch in-house from the best ingredients, Lola has taken this classic treat and made it to an all-day snack. Stick to the Clasico churros that is served with a decadent chocolate dip but if you're seeking for a little bit of an adventure, La Lola also offers churros glazed in dark, white, matcha and purple yam flavours as well as the stuffed variety called Xuxos, bursting with Nutella or dulce de leche fillings. Lola also serves up local-themed churros like the pork floss Xuxo churro.

Nevermind the size of this cosy shop in East Village, when it comes to sweet treats, bold is the word. Specialising in churros and other guilty pleasures, the snack bar frequently switches up their daily bakes so it will always be a new experience everytime you visit. Churros are perfectly crunchy on the outside and slightly dough-y in the centre, but the real magic lies in the premium dips they have like gula melaka, Thai milk tea and four different kinds of chocolate dips.
