Mong Kok East Station (旺角東站) is a station on Hong Kong's East Rail Line. Out-of-system (i.e. indirect) interchange is available with the MTR Kwun Tong Line and the Tsuen Wan Line through a footbridge. The station opened in 1910 as Yaumati Station. The station is at the northern side of Argyle Street in Mong Kok.

The station was named Mong Kok Station before the takeover of KCR operations by the MTR Corporation on 2 December 2007.
