Jonker Street Nightlife
What to Do at Night in Jonker Street
The Friday and Saturday Jonker Walk Night Market in Malacca City’s Chinatown closes down Jalan Hang Lekir to traffic and when the sun goes down here the handful of bars along the boulevard become a mini street party with tables oozing beyond the sidewalks and a mix of live music coursing throughout the area.
Far East Café
This little café – situated off Jonker Street – is the perfect place to enjoy a quiet drink. With soft jazz playing in the background, it is decidedly unpretentious and has a good selection of drinks.

Address: 19, Jalan Hang Lekir, 75200.
Tel: (606) 286 3853 or (6012) 696 6277
