Hock Prawn Mee opens 24/7 in Jalan Besar

This 24/7 Stall In Jalan Besar Serves Old-School Prawn Mee

Tucked away in a humble coffee shop in Jalan Besar is Hock Prawn Mee, serving up old-school prawn mee.

This hawker stall accepts CDC Vouchers and opens for 24 hours daily—perfect if you’re looking for a late-night supper spot! Their signature Prawn Noodle Soup ($5) comes in a bowl of either yellow mee, bee hoon, or a mix of both, generously garnished with toppings of your choice—juicy prawns, tender pork ribs, or intestines. The highlight is the prawn broth, which, according to online reviews, has a rich umami depth from hours of simmering.

The fried pork lard also provides a nice textural contrast. Don’t miss out on their Prawn Noodle Dry ($5.50), which features noodles tossed in a sweet, spicy, and savoury chilli sauce, topped with the usual array of garnishes. The dry version is served with a bowl of the aforementioned soup, which can be refilled once.

Hock Prawn Mee is only a two-minute walk away from Jalan Besar MRT Station. For more Jalan Besar eats, check out our Space 23 review, an under-the-radar cafe serving thick blueberry pancakes. Otherwise, read our list of 24-hour supper spots.

Address: 43 Jalan Besar, Singapore 208804 Opening hours: Daily 24 hours
