Editor’s Note
Last updated 30 May 2026
First Street Teochew Fish Soup is consistently praised for its fresh ingredients and clear, flavourful broth.
We note that the Pomfret and Prawn Soup, in particular, receives high marks for its quality and taste, with some reviewers highlighting the 'springy big prawn' and 'clean soup taste.' While some find the soup's umami lacking, others describe it as 'pure' with a 'natural sweetness.' The Batang fish slices are often recommended over the Red Grouper for freshness.
We also observe that the option to add fish maw and bitter gourd allows for customisation, enhancing the meal for many.
The queue can be substantial, especially during peak hours, but feedback suggests it moves quickly.
Parking is limited, so public transport or parking at Kovan Hawker is advisable.
We think this is a strong contender for fresh fish soup, especially if you prioritise ingredient quality over intense umami.
A reliable choice for a satisfying, clean-tasting meal.

What customers say
First Street Teochew Fish Soup is largely praised for its fresh fish, particularly the batang and pomfret, and the pure, naturally sweet, and flavorful soup, often enhanced by additional fish maw or minced meat.
While some find the soup lacks umami or prefer other establishments for value, many consider it comparable to famous alternatives and worth the price despite being considered expensive for coffee shop fare.
The main stall at Upper Serangoon Road is noted for its fast-moving queues and overall cleanliness.
