Market sights in Melbourne

  1. A

    Queen Victoria Market

    This site has been the market for more than 130 years, prior to which it was a burial ground. This is where Melburnians shop for fresh produce including organics and Asian specialities. There's a deli, meat and fish hall as well as a fast food and restaurant zone. On Wednesday evenings from mid-November to the end of February, a night market with hawker-style food stalls, bars and music takes over.

  2. B

    South Melbourne Market

    The market's labyrinthine interior is packed to overflowing with an eccentric collection of stalls selling everything from carpets to bok choy (Chinese greens). Its hangover-relieving dim sims are famous and sold at various cafes around Melbourne (as 'South Melbourne Market Dim Sims' no less!).

  3. C

    Gleadell Street Market

    Buy a bag of nuts and shuffle past the fish caravan, the spruiking stallholders and hundreds of locals laden with a week’s worth of fruit and veg. This little open-air market is a genuine community experience, and a terrific start to any Saturday.
