Before you go

Does Mei Ling Market close for cleaning?

Yes, NEA schedules four cleaning closures a year at Blk 159 Mei Chin Road. They run two days each, with the last of the year running three. Every stall shuts on those days, so check NEA's closure list before you plan a breakfast detour from the Southern Ridges.

Is Mei Ling Market only a food centre?

No, it's both a hawker centre and a wet market. NEA counts 47 cooked-food stalls and 66 market stalls at Blk 159 Mei Chin Road, which opened in 1970 to serve the Mei Ling estate and was upgraded in 2009 for more circulation space and better ventilation. Come for a meal, and the produce stalls are there if you want them.
