There’s a lot to be said about Hawkers Lane, good street food but lacks complexity.It’s an interesting business model in that it’s situated in a quiet street opposite Newport station and so depends on foot traffic from commuters and leaflet/Menu letterbox drops to advertise its existence. Its hours are limited, doesn’t accept cards (cash only) has one table and a window bench/stool type seating arrangement, pick up only and doesn’t do home delivery.It’s a nice neat set up, well set out with an open view into the kitchen area and a speedy 15 - 20 minutes for the order to be made up, 7-8 staff, 4-5 were in the kitchen.

I have been here a few times. The first time it seemed they were still setting up, but the food was tasty and true to the flavours of Malaysia. More recently, I visited and see they are in full swing and quite popular. The shop is nicely presented and the staff friendly. Again, I'm impressed by the quality and taste of the food. They mainly cater to takeaway and being near the station this works well. However, they have a small amount of seating if you want to eat there.

Hawkers Lane is a welcome addition to the Newport food scene. Fresh, tasty, very reasonably priced. Great staff and swift professional service. Gado gado was delicious, but could be spicier. Overall a great spot for a local meal.
