Street children are one of the conditions of children in difficult circumstances, their lives are very worrying, especially health and the future. The goal is to know the nutritional status of street children as a scientific basis for further intervention programs. Research Methods, discrete-analytic observational research. Using quota sampling as many as 30 street children in the Gundih settlement of Bubutan District, Surabaya City. Nutritional status was assessed by using anthropometric parameters of height according to age and sex and carried out a 2x24 hour recall to determine diet and consumption levels. Conclusion, (1) 70% of street children have poor nutritional status and only 6.7% have good nutritional status. (2) The most common diet patterns for street children are rice, side dishes, and vegetables. (3) The level of consumption achieved is still below 100% of the AKG and the majority are in the less and moderate category. (4) There is no significant relationship between nutritional status and consumption level (p> 0.05). Suggestions, intervention programs on street children need to be done to prevent further serious nutritional problems.
