Every August in Singapore carries a special buzz. The streets are dressed in red and white, families gather to celebrate, and eateries all over the island roll out their best promotions to mark National Day. This year, 8 Crabs is adding a delightful twist to the festivities — a promotion that’s not just about great food, but also about celebrating the cherished elders in the family.
From 8 to 31 August 2025, 8 Crabs is inviting diners to bring along someone aged 60 or above — it could be Ah Ma, Ah Gong, or even a beloved aunt or uncle — and enjoy 10% off the entire bill when dining in. But there’s more to this than just a discount; it’s an opportunity to make this National Day period a meaningful family occasion, complete with hearty seafood and treasured company.
Why This Deal is Worth Noticing
In a city where dining out can get pricey, especially for premium seafood, a 10% discount is not to be overlooked. At 8 Crabs, you’re not just getting any seafood — they’re well-known for their award-winning, freshly prepared crab dishes that have won over food lovers across Singapore. A meal here is more than just dinner; it’s an experience.
With this promotion, the requirement is simple: gather a table of at least six people, including one guest aged 60 or above. The beauty of this is that it turns the promotion into an occasion — think extended family reunions, small gatherings with close friends, or even a celebratory lunch with neighbours.
Celebrating National Day, the Singaporean Way
National Day is about unity, gratitude, and honouring those who have contributed to building the nation. Including a promotion that encourages people to dine with seniors is a clever and heartwarming way of celebrating these values. Seniors often have countless stories to share — from memories of Singapore in its early days to personal anecdotes that remind younger generations of where they come from. Pair those stories with plates of freshly cooked crabs and you’ve got yourself a truly memorable afternoon or evening.
8 Crabs is tapping into this spirit, making the meal more than just about taste — it’s about connection. They’re encouraging people to slow down, spend quality time together, and enjoy an unhurried feast with the elders who’ve been part of Singapore’s journey.
What Makes 8 Crabs Special
If you haven’t been to 8 Crabs before, this promotion is a perfect excuse to try them out. Known for their Sri Lankan wild-caught crabs, they pride themselves on delivering a consistent taste of freshness. Their crabs are air-flown daily to maintain quality, ensuring that the meat remains succulent and sweet.
Signature dishes such as their Award-Winning Chilli Crab and Black Pepper Crab are staples that locals swear by. The sauce, in particular, is prepared with a balanced blend of spices and seasonings that complement the natural flavour of the crab. For those who enjoy something different, their Salted Egg Crab is a creamy, savoury treat that pairs beautifully with steaming hot mantou buns.
Beyond crab, the restaurant offers a variety of zi char favourites — from cereal prawns to sambal kangkong — so there’s always something for everyone at the table. The menu makes it easy to put together a spread that pleases all generations.
Value Beyond the Discount
While 10% might not sound massive at first glance, when you’re enjoying premium seafood in a group, the savings can be quite substantial. For example, a table of six indulging in a couple of large crabs, prawns, and side dishes could easily rack up a bill of several hundred dollars. Shaving 10% off that total is definitely a welcome perk.
It’s also worth noting that this deal covers the entire bill, not just selected dishes, which makes it more generous than many other promotions that only discount certain menu items. It’s a straightforward offer: dine in with a senior, meet the minimum of six people, and enjoy the savings.
Planning the Perfect Visit
If you’re thinking of taking advantage of this deal, it’s wise to plan ahead. With a promotion like this, and the National Day celebrations bringing more people out, reservations are highly recommended. 8 Crabs offers an easy booking system via their official website: 8crabs.com/restaurant.
Try to schedule your visit on a day when everyone in your group can relax and linger over the meal. Crabs, after all, are not a “fast food” — they require a bit of effort to crack open, but that’s part of the joy. Conversations flow more naturally when hands are busy, and laughter tends to follow when someone tries (and fails) to gracefully extract that perfect piece of crab meat.
A Thoughtful National Day Gesture
Not all promotions are created equal. Some are purely transactional — spend this much, get that freebie. This one feels different because it has a purpose that aligns with the heart of National Day: cherishing the older generation. For many families, Ah Ma and Ah Gong are the anchors that hold everyone together. A meal out is a small way of showing appreciation, and when paired with 8 Crabs’ quality food, it becomes an occasion worth remembering.
It’s also a nudge for younger people to carve out time for these moments. In the busyness of life, it’s easy to let weeks or months pass without sitting down for a long meal with the elders in the family. This promotion gives a reason to pause, make that booking, and spend a few hours in the warmth of both good food and familiar company.
Final Thoughts
If you’ve been waiting for the perfect excuse to enjoy premium seafood without straying too far from your budget, this National Day seniors’ promotion at 8 Crabs is your chance. It’s not just about the 10% off — it’s about making a meal into a celebration of family, heritage, and togetherness.
From 8 to 31 August 2025, gather a group of six or more, bring along someone aged 60 or above, and let the team at 8 Crabs serve you a feast worthy of the occasion. National Day is all about honouring the past while enjoying the present — and what better way to do that than over plates of Singapore’s favourite seafood?
Bookings can be made online via 8crabs.com/restaurant. Don’t wait too long — August always flies by faster than expected.
