What Are the Best Sellers at Old Street Bak Kut Teh?
One honest note before the ranking: Old Street does not publish sales figures, so this list is ranked on defensible signals instead. The signature dishes the brand is known for, the long-running menu staples that have survived since the early years, and the dishes that headline delivery listings and set menus. That is a fair proxy for what people actually order, and it beats inventing a sales chart.
| Rank | Dish | Why it ranks here | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Pork Ribs Soup | The signature dish, the peppery Teochew broth the brand built its name on | From S$10.50 |
| 2 | Dry Bak Kut Teh | The second signature, wok tossed in a claypot with dark soy and lady fingers | From S$12.20 |
| 3 | Premium Loin Ribs | The premium cut, headlining set menus and the priciest soup on the menu | S$23.98 |
| 4 | Set Menu A | Soup plus rice, you tiao and beancurd dessert, the easy first-timer order | S$14.90 |
| 5 | You Tiao | Fried fresh in house, the side nearly every table orders with soup | S$2.00 |
| 6 | Pig’s Stomach Soup | A long-running staple for regulars who like the classic broth with offal | S$12.53 |
| 7 | Pork Tenderloin Soup | The leaner soup option, same peppery broth with sliced tenderloin | S$15.01 |
| 8 | Laksa Bak Kut Teh | The fusion favourite, bak kut teh richness with laksa spice | S$15.66 |
The top two are not close calls. Every guide to the brand names the pork ribs soup first and the dry claypot second, and delivery listings lead with the same pair. If you are ordering for the first time, start at the top and work down.

Which Best Seller Should You Order First?
It depends on how hungry you are and how adventurous you feel. The soup is the safe classic, the dry claypot is the one people come back for, and the loin ribs are the treat order.
If You Only Order One Dish
Order the pork ribs soup, small if you are eating alone. It is the dish the brand is judged on: clear, peppery Teochew broth, tender ribs, and a free refill of soup when you dine in. Dunk the you tiao, sip the broth, and you will understand the fuss. The dry bak kut teh is the right second visit, when you already know the soup and want the wok hei version.
The Premium Pick for a Treat
Premium loin ribs at S$23.98 is the splurge, and it is priced like one. You get the meatiest rib cut in the same signature soup, and it anchors the set menus that regulars order for celebrations. If the budget allows one upgrade, this is it. If not, the small pork ribs soup gives you the same broth for less than half the price.
What Sides Go Best With the Best Sellers?
The sides are not an afterthought here, they are part of the ritual. You tiao is the non-negotiable one, made fresh in house and built for dunking. The rest rounds out the meal without adding much to the bill.
| Side | Details | Price |
|---|---|---|
| You Tiao | Fried dough sticks, crisp when fresh, made in house | S$2.00 |
| Beancurd (Dou Hua) | Smooth beancurd dessert, the classic finish after a peppery soup | S$2.30 |
| Soya Milk | Chilled soya bean drink, a cooling match for the peppery broth | S$2.00 |
| Tau Kee, Braised Peanuts, Pickled Vegetables | The classic soup accompaniments | Varies by outlet |
Set Menu A bundles the logic for you: soup, rice, you tiao and beancurd for S$14.90. It is the simplest way to get the full best-seller experience in one order. Curious about the dishes that never make the main menu? The Old Street secret menu guide covers the hidden orders.
