Guzman y Gomez sells its Minis for $6 on the 6th of every month, and the next one lands on Tuesday 6 October 2026 (September's ran on Sunday 6 September). The price is the easy part. The useful part is the two questions nobody answers: what hours it runs, and which restaurants are actually open for them.
> Quick view: $6 a Mini · Tuesday 6 October 2026, 10.30am to 11pm · dine-in and takeaway only, plus the GYG app for pickup, no delivery · all 23 of GYG's outlets trading on a weekday · none still open at 11pm, the latest close at 10.30pm · repeats on the 6th of every month, next after this on Friday 6 November 2026.

The hours, from GYG's own website
GYG has not written the running time anywhere in prose. No press note, no terms page, no line on the banner. Every deal listing that has picked this up simply says "6 September" and stops.
The answer is in the site's own code. The $6 Minis slide on gyg.com.sg sits inside a script that strips it out of the page unless two things are true at once: the date is the 6th, and the clock reads 10.30am or later and before 11pm. Miss either and the slide is removed before you ever see it.
That is GYG deciding, on its own website, when its own promotion is live. It is the closest thing to a published window that exists, so:
- Starts 10.30am
- Ends 11pm
Both ends do real work, and in opposite directions.
The 10.30am start costs you the breakfast trade
Most GYG restaurants open at 8am, and the two CBD ones open at 7.30am. None of that counts. If you walk into Ocean Financial Centre at 8am on a $6 Minis day, you pay the ordinary price.
There is a neat symmetry here worth knowing if you follow this chain's deals. GYG's other monthly promotion, the $3 Brekkie Burrito, runs from opening until 10.30am on the 3rd of each month. The two deals hand off at exactly the same minute. They just never happen on the same day.
The 11pm end is theoretical on a Tuesday
This is where the weekday hurts. On Tuesday 6 October, all 23 GYG restaurants are open, and not one is still trading when the window closes. The latest three shut half an hour early:
| Latest to close | Closing time (Tue) |
|---|---|
| Orchard Gateway | 10.30pm |
| Pasir Ris Mall | 10.30pm |
| Westgate | 10.30pm |
Everywhere else, the shutter comes down sooner. Sixteen outlets close at 10pm, three at 9.30pm, and Mapletree Business City at 8pm. For almost every GYG restaurant, the practical deadline on this Tuesday is 10pm, not 11pm.
All 23 outlets are in this time
September's 6th was a Sunday, and GYG's two office-district restaurants keep office-district hours:
- Mapletree Business City is open Monday to Friday 8am to 8pm, and closed Saturday and Sunday
- Ocean Financial Centre is open Monday to Friday 7.30am to 10pm, and closed Saturday and Sunday
Both sat out September. On Tuesday 6 October both are open, so the CBD goes from impossible to the easy lunch option. Mapletree Business City is the one to watch at the other end: it closes at 8pm, three hours before the window ends.
Where to go, by closing time
All twenty-three, sorted by how long you have on Tuesday:
To 10.30pm: Orchard Gateway, Pasir Ris Mall, Westgate
To 10pm: Dunearn Village, Great World, Guoco Tower, Hillion Mall, i12 Katong, ION Orchard, NEX, Northpoint City, Novena Square, Ocean Financial Centre, One Holland Village, Rail Mall, Serene Centre, Suntec City, VivoCity, Waterway Point
To 9.30pm: Funan, Our Tampines Hub, The Star Vista
To 8pm: Mapletree Business City
One opening time is worth flagging as well. ION Orchard, Northpoint City, One Holland Village, Our Tampines Hub and Pasir Ris Mall open at 10.30am on a Tuesday, the exact minute the promotion starts, so there is no dead time at the front of the day there.
What a Mini is, and what $6 is against
Minis are GYG's small format: mini burritos, mini bowls, nacho fries and the rest of the smaller plates, sized down from the regular menu rather than being different dishes.
Here is the honest limitation. GYG publishes no a la carte Mini price on its own menu page. Its menu page at gyg.com.sg/our-food lists the range with no prices attached to it at all, so there is no official figure to subtract $6 from, and any "usual price" you see quoted elsewhere is a third-party menu site's number, not the brand's.
What GYG does publish is the $9.90 Mini Meal, which is a Mini plus a side, and since August 2025 that side has been a choice of fries, corn chips or street corn at no extra cost. That is the only Mini price the chain prints anywhere. It makes $6 at least $3.90 under the cheapest Mini deal GYG itself quotes, and the real gap on a bare Mini is smaller than that, because you are not getting the side.
Treat it as a genuinely cheap Mexican lunch rather than a spectacular percentage, and it holds up fine.
The fine print that decides where you go
One line sits under the artwork on GYG's own banner:
> "Available for dine-in & takeaway only."
And a yellow strip runs across the top of the same banner saying it is also available on the GYG app, which is the chain's own ordering app, used here for pickup.
So three routes work: eat in, take away, or order ahead on the app and collect. Third-party delivery does not, and neither does GYG's own web ordering if you switch it to delivery.
Worth reading each time, because this chain moves the channel around. Its five-main Butter Chicken bundle earlier this year ran the opposite way, exclusively on GrabFood.
One thing GYG has not published
Unlike the $3 Brekkie Burrito, which comes with a named participating-restaurant list and at least one outlet excluded in its terms, GYG has published no participating list and no exclusions for $6 Minis. The banner names no outlets and carries no exceptions beyond the dine-in and takeaway line.
The reasonable reading is that it runs chain-wide, and the only thing standing between you and it is whether the door is open. Which, on a Sunday, is exactly the thing to check.
After this one
It comes back on the 6th of every month. After October, the next is Friday 6 November 2026, and Friday hours differ again: Dunearn Village, The Star Vista and VivoCity trade late on Fridays, while the CBD outlets close at their weekday times. Check the store finder again rather than reusing this list.
