23 Best Prawn Noodles In Singapore From $2.50

Best prawn noodles in Singapore

---

Prawn noodles is arguably one of the best noodle soup dishes you can get in Singapore. When done right, each portion is a labour of love. Hawkers have to source for fresh prawns, boil the stock for hours so it is enriched with the umami goodness from the prawn shells, make their sambal from scratch so it best complements their take on hae mee—the list goes on.

With so many prawn mee stalls in Singapore, we’re here to help you sift through the masses to find hae mee that’s top of the class. Here is our guide to the best prawn noodles in Singapore.

---

1. Zion Road Big Prawn Noodle

---

They used to be known as Noo Cheng Adam Road Prawn Mee, before changing their name to Fresh Taste Big Prawn Noodle. Since then, the eatery has settled on Zion Road Big Prawn Noodle. Their name may have changed a few times, but their stellar recipe has not. The prawn noodles here have gained them a spot on the Michelin Bib Gourmand guide, so be prepared to queue. We have plenty of praise for their rich, umami broth, which was creamy from hours of boiling. With prices starting from $8, you’ll get fresh, juicy prawns in your soup, with the option to add pork belly and pork ribs.

2. Beach Road Prawn Mee Eating House

---

This amber-hued broth from Beach Road Prawn Mee Eating House tastes clean, and comes with notes of herbs, a slight touch of shallot oil, as well as pork lard. I usually add a few shakes of fine chilli powder, which is more smoky than spicy. The regular bowl goes for $6.50, which gets you medium-sized prawns. Their most popular option is the Jumbo Prawn Mee at $13.50, which comes with larger prawns.

3. Jalan Sultan Prawn Mee

---

Another prawn mee that made its way into the Michelin Guide, Jalan Sultan Prawn Mee was awarded the Michelin Plate for its tasty signature dish. It’s an offshoot from the same family that brought you Beach Road Prawn Mee, hence you might find similarities in the taste of both broths. The soup here is lighter than some of the other stalls, although it is still rich with the sweetness of prawns. A regular bowl of Pork Rib Prawn Mee is priced at $6, and their Sultan Prawn Mee, which comes with huge prawns, costs $10.

4. River South (Hoe Nam) Noodles House

---

Nestled in the middle of a few shophouses near Potong Pasir MRT Station, River South (Hoe Nam) Noodles House offers prawn mee that tastes simple and comforting. The broth has a strong taste of pork and shellfish. $5 can get you a bowl of prawn mee, but those who want something more can try Five-in-One Bowl ($12/$15) that includes medium-sized prawns, abalone clams, pork ribs, pig’s tail and pig’s intestine. 

Address: 2 Tai Thong Cres, #01-01 The Venue Shoppes, Singapore 347836

5. Blanco Court Prawn Mee

---

Blanco Court Prawn Mee started in 1928, so chances are, your ah gong might have brought ah ma here for prawn mee years ago. For $7, you’ll get a bowl of prawn mee with three halved prawns, pork ribs and a light shower of fried shallot oil. Together with kang kong, the combination of thick bee hoon and egg noodles creates a mix of textures. With ample space and swift service, this casual eatery makes a great spot for lunch.

6. Wah Kee Big Prawn Noodles

---

Here’s one for purists: Wah Kee uses nothing but prawns in its broth, thus its bright orange hue. The stall is known for its temperamental owners, which did not faze the mighty Chow Yun-Fatt, who once queued for a bowl of prawn mee here.

Prices start at $5 for a small bowl, but we recommend going at least for the $10 bowl with dry mee kia (thin yellow noodles). The mee kia is made especially for Wah Kee, and they blend the sauces fresh on-site daily!

Whitley Road Big Prawn Mee, now considered one of the OG stalls of good prawn mee in Singapore, used to run its operations under a flyover along Whitley Road many years back. A regular bowl of Big Prawn Pork Rib Noodle starts at $5.50. Thanks to their relatively long opening hours, the soup here gets more robust later in the day.

8. 545 Whampoa Prawn Noodles

---

No fancy ingredients here, just simple and old-school prawn mee done right. 545 Whampoa Prawn Noodles is run by a third-generation young hawker, whose grandfather used to sell prawn mee from a pushcart in Whampoa in the 1950s. The late Anthony Bourdain has eaten here before, too! Their prawn noodles, which start from $5, are topped with slices of blanched prawns, sliced pork and shallot oil. Go for the dry version with chilli ─ that’s what everyone gets.

Apart from the usual prawn mee that costs $5, Wen Wen Big Prawn Mee also offers a premium bowl that includes abalone, pork ribs and prawn from $12. But what you must have here is their Seafood Prawn Mee Steamboat (from $60) that comes with a whole crab, pork ribs, pig’s tail and pretty much whatever they have available on the shelf. You can buy your own ingredients to throw into the steamboat too!

10. Da Dong Prawn Noodles

---

Now run by young hawkerpreneur Watson Lim, Da Dong Prawn Noodles was founded by his father in 1966. It ticks most of our boxes for a great bowl of prawn noodles, and the broth is so precious, refills are not entertained. Their Big Prawn Noodles ($15) come with five huge prawns, or you can go for the standard Pork Rib Prawn Noodles ($8).

11. Ebi Bar

---

For prawn noodles with a modern, Japanese twist check out Ebi Bar. This restaurant in town offers hae mee with a ramen slant, great for fans of both dishes. Try their Signature “Chao Da” Ebi Noodles ($15.90) for loads of umami, as charred prawns are served atop springy ramen noodles, dressed with a broth that is made with 40kg of prawn shells and heads, prepared for up to 10 hours.

12. East Treasure Speciality Prawn Noodle

---

Operated by the Astons group, East Treasure Speciality Prawn Noodle has a signature prawn broth that’s rich with umami, full-bodied and replete with flavour. The Classic Prawn Noodle ($6.80) is a generous serving, but prawn lovers should go for the Supreme Big Prawn Noodle ($13.80), filled with jumbo prawns, pork belly slices, pork ribs and even pork tails.

13. Da Shi Jia

---

Da Shi Jia is known for its Wok-fried Big Prawn White Bee Hoon (from $19.40), but the Prawn Noodle ($7.40) is not shabby either. It’s slightly lighter and less salty than the prawn soup you get at other hawker stalls, but there is a pleasing sweet aftertaste at the end of each mouthful. If you’re in the Orchard area, this is worth a try!

14. Wang Bu Liao Traditional Prawn Noodles

---

Wang Bu Liao Traditional Prawn Noodles boasts a near perfect Google Maps score, and for good reason. Their rendition of Prawn Noodles ($8.50) is excellent, thanks to its robust broth that was both savoury and sweet, along with a piquant prawny flavour that came through with the use of the freshest prawns. Although the broth was already in a league of its own, the true star of the show was the fresh prawns. They were one of the juiciest and sweetest prawns we’ve tasted, and we found ourselves savouring each bite from head to tail.

15. Loyang Way Big Prawn Noodles

---

The orange broth at Loyang Way Big Prawn Noodles is full-bodied and has a slight hint of spice, followed by the sweetness of prawn. If you go for the dry Big Prawn Noodle ($5-$9), you can add on a Creamy Egg ($1) and break it into your noodles for extra richness. They have now opened a new branch in Bedok North, too!

Another familiar prawn noodles joint in the East is Albert Street Prawn Noodles. Their prices are known to be affordable, as well as tasty; you can get a bowl of prawn noodles loaded with ingredients for $6 here. Prawns are halved so they’re easy to eat, with tender meat that is a sign of freshness. You can also order another signature, their Pig Intestine Noodles for $9, which comes with innards swimming in the deep, orange prawn broth.

17. Min Nan Prawn Noodles

---

If you’re in Tiong Bahru and craving this local staple, go to Min Nan. This old-school stall has gotten Michelin nods for their lighter, sweeter style of hae mee, which comes with a clearer broth, large prawns, and pork ribs, for just $5. Some diners recommend the dry version here instead, which you can zhng up with extra chilli sauce for more flavour.

Address: 30 Seng Poh Road, #02-31, Singapore 168898

18. One Prawn & Co

---

If you’ve followed One Prawn & Co‘s journey since they started, you’ll know that they’ve just opened a swanky restaurant in New Bahru. Visit from 11am to 3pm daily to try their lunch exclusives: Jumbo Tiger Prawn Ramen ($35++), Smoked Beef Brisket Ramen ($35++), and Crispy Pork Belly Ramen ($26++). The first of these is crowned by a XL tiger prawn, butterflied into two halves. The jumbo prawn stole the show for us; its flesh came off the shell without much tugging and tasted super fresh with a natural sweetness. We were also a fan of their full-bodied, umami prawn broth.

19. 58 Prawn Noodle and Minced Meat Noodle

---

Image credit: @wengoriginade

The East is home to a handful of notable prawn noodle stalls, but rarely do you see 58 Prawn Noodle and Minced Meat Noodle on the list. That’s not for any reason except that the Bedok Reservoir stall is sorely underrated and a little hard to get to if you don’t stay in the East.

If you love your hae mee with stock that’s enriched with prawn oil, this stall is for you. We highly recommend splurging on their Big Prawn Noodle ($11), served with large prawns and chunks of pork rib, but their more affordable Pork Ribs Prawn Noodle ($6.50) hits the spot just as well.

Address: 704 Bedok Reservoir Road, Singapore 470704

6. Lai Hiang Pork Rib Prawn Mee

---

Fans of prawn mee are unlikely to find a stall that does their favourite dish cheaper than Lai Hiang Pork Rib Prawn Mee. The most affordable bowl here will set you back $2.50, and features a prawn, sliced pork, and fish cake atop chilli-tossed noodles. Though you’re not getting a lot with that single prawn, the piquant chilli sauce and rich umami soup here more than make up for it.

21. Don Don Prawn Noodles

Another hae mee that comes out top for us is Don Don Prawn Noodles, a hidden gem located at Circuit Road Food Centre. Though the stall is relatively new and only established in 2019, it has since become a firm favourite of those living in the area. Only fresh, wild-caught ang kar prawns are used here, so you can ensure that the prawns and broth are sweet as can be. Each bowl also stars tender pork ribs that fall off the bone, thanks to them being marinated for hours before cooking. A standard here starts at $5.50, but they also offer jumbo portions for $11.80.

22. Sixth Avenue Porky Prawn Noodle

---

Sixth Avenue Porky Prawn Noodle is known for its prawn mee that’s absolutely packed with various cuts of pork. Take the Mixed Porky Prawn Noodle ($7.50) for instance, which comes with prawns, pork slices, pork skin, and innards, namely liver and kidney. There’s also the Pig Liver & Kidney Mee Sua ($6), featuring a generous portion of mee sua submerged in delectable prawn broth, topped with pig liver and kidney. FYI, if these liao don’t suffice, there are a total of 11 toppings to add on, including braised egg, sweet intestine, and pork rib.

23. Amoy Street Boon Kee

---

The menu at Amoy Street Boon Kee Prawn Noodles is straightforward, offering only prawn mee with a small variety of different liao, including some unusual additions such as abalone and pigs tail. The basic Prawn Noodle ($4) get a surprisingly large amount of liao in the bowl, including three fresh and deshelled prawns, thin and tender pork spices, and crunchy pork lard cubes, all of which have been liberally coated in the house-made sambal chilli. There’s also the Sliced Abalone Prawn Noodle ($4/$5), which is similarly delicious—but before anyone gets too excited, they aren’t selling you the fancy kind canned in Australia, but rather the more economical sliced ones you find in yusheng.
