Lau Pa Sat and Satay Street
A Victorian cast-iron market hall in Singapore's financial district, with hawker stalls by day and an open-air satay street after dark.
Lau Pa Sat, the old Telok Ayer Market, is a historic octagonal market hall in Singapore's business district. In the evening, nearby Boon Tat Street is closed to traffic and becomes Satay Street.
What to expect
Hawker stalls inside the hall serve food through the day and into the night. Satay Street fills with smoky grills and tables outdoors.
What to eat
Chicken, beef and mutton satay, stingray, rojak, laksa, chilli crab and cold beer.
Visitor tips
- The hall is listed as open around the clock, though not all stalls are, and Satay Street runs in the evening.
- Agree prices and portions with the satay sellers before you order.
- It is close to Raffles Place and Telok Ayer MRT stations.
