Street Eats Eatery Scarborough

Street Eats Eatery Scarborough is the food-focused venue at the Indian Ocean Hotel on Hastings Street, bringing the brand’s global street-food approach to Perth’s coastal suburb. The wider Street Eats offering draws on flavours associated with markets and casual eateries around the world, with the published menu spanning burgers, tacos, skewers, bao buns, Nepalese momos, wok-fried noodles, rice dishes and more unusual options such as fried crickets. The Scarborough listing is marked “Only Food”, so this location is best approached as a place to eat rather than one of the brand’s venues promoted for cocktails or bottomless sessions.

The menu presented by Street Eats is built for sharing as well as full meals. Standout options include homemade Nepalese chicken momos with spicy tomato sauce, crispy pork belly bao buns, street tacos with a choice of fillings, and a mixed skewers platter with chicken, pork, lamb, prawns and beef. For something more substantial, the published selection includes Nepali chicken chau chau, nasi goreng, a Japanese tofu poke bowl, chicken 65 biryani and several burgers. The Grounded Cow combines double Angus beef patties with American cheese, bacon and pickles, while the Mother Klucker takes a Korean-style crispy chicken direction. Vegetarian diners are catered for with cauliflower popcorn tacos and a plant-based burger patty option.

There are also shareable platters, fries and children’s meals, making the food range workable for groups with different appetites. Kids can choose from options including spaghetti, calamari and chips, a cheeseburger slider, chicken strips or ham, cheese and pineapple pizza. The menu’s mix of familiar comfort food and less conventional street-food dishes could suit a casual family meal, a group looking to share several plates, or solo diners wanting a filling burger, rice dish or noodle bowl. The website does not provide specific details about the Scarborough dining room’s layout or atmosphere, so it is more useful to focus on the food style and the venue’s location within the Indian Ocean Hotel.

Street Eats was founded by Ash Chibba, whose early experiences at local markets and street vendors in Mysore, India helped shape the concept. Travel later exposed him to more regional cuisines, before he trained as a chef and settled in Western Australia. His stated aim is to reflect the energy and variety of food scenes in places including New York, Taiwan and Tokyo, while drawing on the people and dishes he encountered along the way. In Scarborough, that translates into a broad, casual menu with plenty of choice, served at a venue close to the Indian Ocean Hotel.
