Where Is the Nearest Old Street Bak Kut Teh to Me?
Old Street started at Upper Paya Lebar in 2010 and has since spread into malls across Singapore, so the answer is usually the mall nearest you rather than one single shop. The chain’s own listings name six core outlets, and older guides add Plaza Singapura, Hougang Mall, NEX, Tampines Mall and Bukit Panjang Plaza, so the network is wider than the six below. If your nearest mall isn’t listed here, check the brand’s outlet page or a maps search before travelling, since mall tenants do change.
| Outlet | Address | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Upper Paya Lebar (Flagship) | 129 Upper Paya Lebar Rd, Singapore 534840 | East side, longest hours, original shop |
| Westgate | #B1-25 Westgate, 3 Gateway Drive, Singapore 608532 | Jurong East and the west |
| Funan | #B2-26 Funan, 107 North Bridge Road, Singapore 179105 | City Hall and the CBD |
| PLQ Mall | #B2-02 PLQ Mall, 10 Paya Lebar Rd, Singapore 409057 | Paya Lebar MRT interchange |
| Kallang Wave Mall | #01-22 Kallang Wave Mall, Singapore Sports Hub | Stadium area and the east-central corridor |
| Sun Plaza | #01-23/24 Sun Plaza, 30 Sembawang Drive | Sembawang and the north |
Two practical notes: the Funan outlet has been listed under two unit numbers over the years, so follow the mall directory once you arrive, and the Telok Ayer shop at 11 New Bridge Road appears in older guides, so treat it as worth checking rather than guaranteed.
Which Old Street Outlet Is Closest to You by Area?
Pick your side of the island and the choice usually makes itself. East siders have two strong options close together, central diners head to Funan, and west and north siders each have one mall outlet to aim for.
East: Paya Lebar, Hougang and the Sports Hub
If you live in the east, you are spoiled for choice. The flagship at Upper Paya Lebar is the original shop and the one with the longest hours, while PLQ Mall sits right on the Paya Lebar MRT interchange for an easy stop on the way home. Kallang Wave Mall covers the Stadium area, and older guides also place an outlet at Hougang Mall on 90 Hougang Avenue 10, which is handy for the north-east. Between these four, most east side diners are within a couple of MRT stops of a bowl.
Central and West: City Hall, Orchard and Jurong East
Central diners should head to Funan near City Hall MRT, a short walk from the CBD, while older guides also list Plaza Singapura on Orchard Road and a Telok Ayer shop for the downtown crowd. In the west, Westgate in Jurong East is the clear pick, right on the Jurong East MRT interchange. Sun Plaza covers Sembawang in the north, so the network really does stretch from one end of the island to the other.
| Your area | Nearest outlet | Why it fits |
|---|---|---|
| East (Paya Lebar, MacPherson) | Upper Paya Lebar flagship or PLQ Mall | Minutes apart, flagship has longest hours |
| North-east (Hougang, Serangoon) | Hougang Mall (older guides) or Upper Paya Lebar | Closest reported options, verify before visiting |
| Central (City Hall, CBD) | Funan | City Hall MRT, CBD lunch crowd |
| Orchard and downtown | Plaza Singapura or Telok Ayer (older guides) | Reported in older guides, check before visiting |
| West (Jurong East, Clementi) | Westgate | Jurong East MRT interchange |
| North (Sembawang, Yishun) | Sun Plaza | Sembawang’s neighbourhood mall |
| Stadium and Kallang | Kallang Wave Mall | Sports Hub outlet |
What Time Does the Nearest Old Street Bak Kut Teh Open?
Hours differ by outlet, and the flagship is the outlier with the longest day. Mall outlets mostly run on mall hours, so an early lunch before 11am only really works at the flagship or Funan.
| Outlet | Hours | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Upper Paya Lebar (Flagship) | Weekdays 9:30am to 11:00pm; weekends 8:00am to 11:00pm | Longest hours, earliest weekend opening |
| Westgate | 10:00am to 10:00pm daily | Jurong East mall hours |
| Funan | 9:00am to 9:00pm daily | Good early lunch option near City Hall |
| PLQ Mall | 11:00am to 10:00pm daily | Opens latest of the core outlets |
| Kallang Wave Mall | Varies by location | Check before visiting |
| Sun Plaza | Varies by location | Check before visiting |
Breakfast hunters should note the flagship’s 8:00am weekend opening, which is the closest thing Old Street has to a breakfast window. If you are planning a late supper, the flagship’s 11:00pm close beats every mall outlet, and the Old Street Bak Kut Teh breakfast menu covers what to order early in the day.
How Much Does a Meal Cost at Your Nearest Outlet?
Prices are consistent enough across outlets to plan around, though small variations by outlet are normal. A solo lunch of a soup plus rice and a side lands most diners in the S$13 to S$20 range before drinks.
| Item | Details | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Pork Ribs Soup | Small / Large, signature peppery broth | S$10.50 / S$14.00 |
| Dry Bak Kut Teh | Small / Large, claypot, dark soy gravy | S$12.20 / S$15.70 |
| Set Menu A | Bak kut teh, white rice, you tiao, beancurd dessert | S$14.90 |
| You Tiao | Freshly fried dough sticks | S$2.00 |
| Beancurd (Dou Hua) | Smooth beancurd dessert | S$2.30 |
| Soya Milk | Chilled soya bean drink | S$2.00 |
| Premium Loin Ribs | Premium rib cut in signature soup | S$23.98 |
One perk that applies at the table wherever you go: soup refills are free when you dine in, with staff topping up the broth during the meal. Delivery prices run higher, so if you are close enough to walk in, dining in is the better value. The Old Street Bak Kut Teh delivery menu shows how app prices compare if you would rather stay home.
How Do You Find Your Nearest Old Street Bak Kut Teh?
The fastest route is a maps search for “Old Street Bak Kut Teh” with your location turned on, which ranks outlets by distance and shows live opening status. Mall outlets are the easiest to find, since they sit in the basement or ground food levels of Westgate, Funan, PLQ Mall, Kallang Wave Mall and Sun Plaza. The flagship is a standalone shop on Upper Paya Lebar Road, a short bus ride from Paya Lebar or MacPherson MRT.
Three tips that save a wasted trip: check the hours for Kallang Wave Mall and Sun Plaza before you go, since those vary; confirm the Funan unit number in the mall directory, since older listings differ; and if one outlet shows closed on a delivery app, try the brand’s own portal or another nearby outlet before giving up. Once you are seated, ordering is by iPad at most outlets, and the soup refill perk makes the dine-in trip worth it.
What Is the Story Behind Old Street Bak Kut Teh?
Founded in 2010 by Jason Lim, Old Street Bak Kut Teh serves Teochew-style peppery pork ribs soup with a modern twist: iPad ordering at many outlets, freshly fried you tiao made in-house and a dry bak kut teh cooked down in a claypot with dark soy, dried chillies, lady fingers and cuttlefish. The brand has grown from a single shop at Upper Paya Lebar into a chain with outlets across Singapore and overseas.
