Editor’s Note

Last updated 8 Nov 2026

Our take: Lau Pa Sat stands out as a historic hawker centre in the CBD, offering a wide array of local and international dishes within its distinctive Victorian architecture.

We see consistent praise for the variety of food, from Hainanese chicken rice and laksa to Indian, Arabic, and Chinese cuisines.

Reviewers frequently highlight the 'Satay Street' experience in the evenings, where Boon Tat Street closes to traffic for outdoor dining and freshly grilled skewers.

The mango sticky rice and various satay dishes are often mentioned as authentic and well-priced, with generous portion sizes.

While the atmosphere is described as vibrant and buzzing, especially at night, some feedback suggests that table cleanliness could be improved.

We think it's a must-visit for its unique blend of heritage and hawker culture, offering good value and an unforgettable dining experience under the city skyline.

Best for groups looking for variety and a lively atmosphere, particularly in the evenings.

Lau Pa Sat is highly regarded for its authentic Singaporean hawker experience within a beautiful historic Victorian setting, offering a vast array of local and international cuisines, including popular satay on Boon Tat Street at night.

Customers appreciate the good value for money, generous portion sizes, and vibrant atmosphere, though some note it can get very busy and noisy, with occasional concerns about table cleanliness.
