Gurney Drive Hawker Centre is one of the biggest and most famous eatery in Penang. It has relocated a few times, and is presently located at the northern end of Persiaran Gurney, just before the Gurney roundabout, between Sunrise Tower and Gurney Plaza.
The Gurney Drive Hawker Centre has been around since the early 1970's, and is probably the best known place for visitors to Penang to enjoy the local hawker fare. Over the years, the price at the hawker centre has risen higher than at coffee shops elsewhere in Penang, due likely to the commercialisation of the centre. There is a lot of hawker fare to choose from and visitors are spoilt for choice. Visitors are advised to come early in the evening, otherwise parking may be a bit of a problem.
You can take the following Rapid Penang buses to reach Persiaran Gurney: T304
