Every year, as part of the Michelin Guide, the annual Bib Gourmand list recognises eateries that serve quality food sold at affordable prices. Though Michelin’s official definition of “affordable” is less than $45 for a three-course meal, thanks to Singapore’s unique hawker centre culture, most of the dishes featured in this year’s list are priced under $15.
It shouldn’t come as a surprise that many of the 89 eateries in this year’s Michelin Bib Gourmand list are hawker stalls. If you and your colleagues are planning to make the most of a visit to a hawker centre, here are the top 3 hawker centres with at least 4 entries in the 2025 Bib Gourmand list.

#1 Newton Food Centre (5 entries)
Address: 500 Clemenceau Avenue North, Singapore 229495
Nearest MRT: Newton MRT (NS21/DT11)

Song Kee Teochew Fish Porridge (#01-37)
One of the 11 newcomers to the 2025 Bib Gourmand list, Song Kee offers sliced fish porridge starting from $6.
Kwee Heng (#01-13)
Known for their boneless braised duck rice, prices here start from $5. They also serve Hainanese chicken and char siew, should you want to complement their braised duck.
Kwang Kee Teochew Fish Porridge (#01-20)
Prices for sliced fish porridge and sliced fish soup start from $6 and go up to $12 here. They also offer fried fish soup and fish head soup at the same price range.
Alliance Seafood (#01-27)
This mainstay on the Bib Gourmand list is one of the higher-priced options as most of the seafood dishes are charged at market prices. If you’re only planning to spend $15, consider getting the BBQ stingray.
