Whenever the hunger pang strikes, Malaysians do not have to worry about not being able to find food. After all, we are spoilt for choice as food is widely available here in the country regardless of the time of the day.
And tea-time is popular with Malaysians, who have their favourites for a quick midday bite.
Now, it’s even easier to get your favourite tea-time snacks thanks to ShopeeFood.
Busy in the office but craving for Cucur Udang? No problem – just launch your Shopee app, go to the ShopeeFood icon, and browse for stalls or restaurants near you selling whatever your tea-time fancies. With the convenience one enjoys from ShopeeFood, it has become increasingly popular for Malaysians to utilise the food delivery feature in the Shopee mobile app.
It’s also a great way to discover new ones you might not have thought of trying before due to the hassle of physically getting to the store.
ShopeeFood connects users to various eateries, from restaurants to local street food stalls, where you can choose from a wide variety of cuisines and perks such as weekly super food deals, flash sales, or free deliveries. ShopeeFood is currently available in six locations such as Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya, Selangor, Penang, Johor Bahru, Ipoh, and Kota Kinabalu.
You can order in for most of your meals, from breakfast to supper, and yes even for tea-time!
There’s also the option of integrating your ShopeePay for cashless payment right from your Shopee mobile app, making the entire process seamless, convenient, and absolutely hassle free. All you need to do is wait for your food delivery with anticipation building in your tastebuds.
So, What’s For Tea, Malaysia?
Wondering what to order in for tea? There is no better way to know what’s good than from those who’ve tried and tasted it – and then order it again and again. Seems like ShopeeFood users from all six locations have several preferences when it comes to tea-time.
Pisang Goreng is a top favourite in Johor Bahru, Ipoh, and Kota Kinabalu – every bite a crunch with the crispy exterior of the banana fritter that will hit the spot for quick cravings.
Meanwhile, Penangites seem to have a sweeter tooth as Bubble Tea beverages top the list for tea-time orders, just what’s needed for a refreshing mid-day treat.
In Klang Valley locations, Fried Rice and Pisang Goreng is often the go-to for ShopeeFood users when the 3pm cravings hit.
Other favourites from ShopeeFood users that also made the list for tea-time special? There are local delights like the crispy and fluffy Apam Balik filled with creamy sweet corn, crushed roasted peanuts and sugar, and sometimes crispy, sometimes chewy Keropok Lekor served with sweet chilli sauce, and there are western must-haves like pastries, cakes, and waffles to be washed down by irresistible beverages such as frappes and smoothies that make for a perfect tea-time meal. Not forgetting too, sundaes satisfy every sweet tooth.
Interestingly, ShopeeFood users have always been ordering food that you normally wouldn’t have for tea-time.
“ShopeeFood offers great discount vouchers. I particularly like to order the Cold Brew Coffee from Starbucks for my tea-time.”

Popular in Penang, Johor Bahru and Ipoh is Assam Laksa and even Nasi Lemak Ayam Goreng.
Perhaps some users are skipping lunch and having an early dinner instead?
While in Klang Valley, Pau is the cuisine of choice for those who want a little bit more sustenance to satisfy hunger pangs, and in Kota Kinabalu, Roti Canai and even Roti Telur are quirky but popular tea-time food. Users from all six locations also have another clear favourite – fast-food burgers served with fries.
After all, when the cravings hit come tea-time, all you want is to quickly order something good to eat and have it delivered to you as soon as possible so you can chow down and enjoy every single bite.
“ShopeeFood enables us to better serve the needs of our users and merchants by providing value, variety and convenience through an integrated ecosystem in the Shopee mobile app. Through ShopeeFood, Malaysians can order their favourite dishes and explore new eateries by browsing through our wide selection of merchants from the comfort of their homes,” Cheok Tuan Ee, Head of Marketing for ShopeePay and ShopeeFood said.
