Lonely Planet review for Queen Victoria Market

Chaotic, friendly, multicultural – the Queen Victoria Market is one of the largest open-air markets in the southern hemisphere and the grand dame of all Melbourne markets. Over 600 traders hock their wares here and it’s been pushing trade for more than 125 years. You’ll find everything from perfectly ripe brie to perfectly rank moccasins. An organic corridor in the fruit and vegetable section is stocked with fresh produce grown without a hint of chemicals or pesticides. The bustling night market runs between late November and mid-February.

    A hive of activity

    steveomac recommends this,

    Get your fresh food from Vic Market, its cheap and delicious. Oh and while you're at it be sure to checkout the enormous array of tacky Australian tourist souvenirs.

    Cheap meat, fruit and veg

    markbroadhead recommends this,

    The meat, fruit and veg are normally cheap here, but on a Sunday about an hour before closing (which at the moment is 4pm), the stalls start to get rid of what's left at even cheaper prices because they aren't open on Monday.
