It is generally served by four trains per hour in each direction, although this can vary during peak hours when some services are more frequent, including some express services. The weekend and late evenings are half hour services. Lakemba has an island platform. At the eastern end of the station, a road bridge carries Lakemba's main shopping street, Haldon Street, over the railway. The original wooden ticket office above the station was demolished when it was heavily damaged by fire and replaced by a modern metal and glass structure.
