Kelawei Road is a major thoroughfare in the city of George Town within the Malaysian state of Penang.

It is one of the main roads leading out of the city centre towards the suburb of Tanjong Tokong.

This leafy road runs just behind Gurney Drive, passing by a number of well-known landmarks and shopping malls; the high-rises of Gurney Drive also line the northern side of Kelawei Road.

Kelawei Road has been populated by Burmese, Eurasian and Thai communities throughout its history.

The College General, a training institution for Catholic missionaries, also once stood along the road, before being relocated to Tanjung Bungah.
