Lovely atmosphere, lively music was awesome all around. Great summer night market with a good variety of food stalls... could have definitely been more stalls but the food was great nonetheless. Only downside is waiting time for food as the lines are awfully long so get there early I guess(?)

I think this may have been the highlight of our Melbourne trip. This market is a sensory overload. The quality and variety of food and goods here was purely amazing. What ever you do, don't miss going here. Saturday morning seemed to be the best day

Love it here! Such a great morning to be spent browsing all the different areas. It has everything you need from fresh produce to clothing and gifts. The veg and fruit are all fresh and the heart and seafood are consistently good quality. The deli section is my favourite with all sorts of beautiful European treats! There's a food hall with a really wide selection of different cuisines plus coffee carts and a brilliant donut van! Getting there is straight forward as it's well serviced by buses and trams. Recommend getting there early to avoid it getting too crowded but even when it's busy it's a great atmosphere.

A nice not so little market in the middle of the city. The place is ideal to find fresh veggies on very nominal prices. They also have many small businesses outlets selling art, souvenirs, knock-off clothes, leather items. I did get passport holder customised from here, they had so many options and colours. The place also hosts night markets on Wednesday during summer and winter. The night markets are fun filled with music, food and shopping outlets.

I could become very poor here. The best cheeses, sausages, specialities, coffee, bread... well, almost everything that makes life good, can be found here. A must see here in Melbourne.

You obviously aren't going to have everything you want here but the selection from produce to poultry to bread is fresh, local, cost saving, and most importantly delicious! Highly highly highly recommend shopping here for your staple produce and meat and bread over the supermarkets. They also have clothes, soap, pharmaceuticals, bags, jewelry, and other items as well as food. There are shops lined up and waiting to sell local goods.

Queen Victoria Market is an authentic, bustling, inner-city market that has been the heart and soul of Melbourne for 140 years. Home to over 600 small businesses, it is a great place to discover fresh and specialty produce, hand-made and unique products, great coffee and food, souvenirs and clothing. Shopping at the Market has always been one of life’s great pleasures. It is not just the abundance of fresh food, it’s the friendly banter with the traders, the vibrant and multicultural atmosphere, the special events and festivals, and the sense of belonging that comes with it. While you’re here, make sure you visit String Bean Alley which is home to a colourful collection of Melbourne’s best independent makers, creators, designers and artists. Be sure to take the Ultimate Foodie Tour, a two-hour guided walking tour where you’ll taste the freshest produce, discover unique ingredients, learn tips and tricks for shopping and cooking, discover the Market's history and meet some of our beloved traders. Bookings essential at the website. Queen Victoria Market is also home to the Night Market on Wednesday nights, showcasing global street food, live music and entertainment, festival bars, specialty shopping and a great Melbourne night out. The Market also offers a historic venue space with a range of indoor and outdoor spaces.

Very much a market for tourist. Not all are local products. Some stores are run by Chinese, then likely the products are from China (price marked up 5x from china). The other food stores are mostly fresh local produces. Fresh juices and food are good.. a few bakeries 👍🏻

A must visit spot if you are visiting Melbourne or a great spot to do your fruit, veg, meat, and deli shopping if you are a local. The fresh seafood is amazing. The selection of cheeses can not be beaten. The fresh fruit and vegetables are the best. The general shopping section is worth exploring. One of our weekend staples is a visit to the Queen Vic Market.

The market is awesome. It has so many great things from trinkets to groceries. I have spent many weekends exploring all the goodies. I was particularly impressed with one of the site managers who pointed me in the right direction when I was looking for a specific stall, I think his name was Kurt. A top bloke who added to the experience. I highly recommend checking this place out and sampling all the delicious goodies and hidden gems here

A great place to visit in Melbourne. Love the variety of the shops that sell all kind of daily stuffs. You can find all in one here. Especially love the market where I can find unlimited fresh shucked oysters. It is really value for money and good bargain fresh seafood ! We also found place to get our fresh ground coffee, fruits are a gem that sell mussels pot! The mussel pot has been here many years and cooked really good mussel pot. Do try the spicy one with coconut cream and chili. Dipping in with bread made your day!

Had the chance to visit here for the Summer Night Market - which was really nice! Good crowd with nice food we could share and nibble on. Good enough drinks selection for a market too. Worth a visit with some friends, and would love to check this out in the day too.

Canadian traveller here! I must say I was blown away by this market that was opened on a weekday with several food stalls and artists with their creative work. This was a great experience overall and would recommend this to anyone visiting Melbourne. You can easily spend 3 hours here. It’s free! Lots of families and groups hanging out to enjoy this awesome place. They can use more seating areas considering how busy it got, but you can always arrive earlier than the crowd or find a corner to sit on as long as you aren’t blocking the way. We went to the Black Sheep stall and we were happy we tried it. I recommend the mixed meat if you want to experience all their meat in one sitting.

Visited both the Night and Day market on two separate occasions. I preferred the Day market. During the Night visit, the whole place was packed and crowded. Since it only Opened on Wednesday night (seasonal). The food prices at each stalls were quite pricy with average taste. Nothing fanciful. There a silent disco and it should be fun to join if you not shy! As for the Day visit, it of a different feel and you can just buy a cup of coffee and relax yourself. Walking around in a slow pace and buy any food that attracts you. It the experience that counts. There also those different vintage, clothing or souvenir stalls to walk around. Take a look at some of the photos taken during my visits!

If you're in Melbourne, you've got to check out the Queen Victoria Market! It's a bustling hub of activity with so much to offer. From fresh produce to unique souvenirs, you'll find it all here. The atmosphere is lively and energetic, with vendors calling out their specials and shoppers browsing through the diverse array of goods. Whether you're a foodie looking for fresh ingredients or a tourist searching for the perfect gift, this market has something for everyone. Plus, the historical significance adds an extra layer of charm to the experience. Overall, it's a must-visit destination in Melbourne that truly captures the essence of the city's vibrant culture.

You can find everything in this market. The place is clean and accessible. It's well distributed and it's a big market. Prices are good! I recommend you to go at 1:30 pm or 2 pm because prices are better at that time. You'll find an Italian bakery inside which smells delicious and the bread is outstanding. All products are fresh and there is a huge variety of fruit and veggies.

My go-to place to get fruit and veggies. Always a good price and good bargain. Should visit after 1 PM, cause they will lower the price, although you have to be very thorough to pick the best stuff at that hour. Also, the night market was fun, should visit around 5 pm so it's not too crowded and you can get a space to eat, cause it will get too packed after 6 pm. Best time would be on the first week of the night market, cause there will be fewer people

This market place is awesome. Plenty to eat, shop and explore. Have to get there early to avoid the crowd and getting a parking space on the weekends. There have varieties of groceries, meat, vegetables and other produce etc. Plenty of Cafe for a cup of coffee. Love coming to this place especially of fresh mussels with white wine. Love it!!

Went here for the winter market, must say that the food choices here were amazing. Varieties were out of this world. The best time to avoid lines is to come after 8 pm. We tried many favourites and everything was good. Only issue is that when you want to buy water, you have to go to the bar area. Otherwise, I am going here every Wednesday.

Wow! visited the Wednesday night market. It had an awesome vibe. Food and stalls were amazing. We got back to the hotel and went back to buy more things. The next morning we went back. Heaps of stalls, some items were pricey, others were good value. Brought an amazing honey melon in the fruit and vegetables section!

The best place to come for your weekly shop. With cost of living rising, the fruit and veg prices at Vic Markets are hard to beat. The weekends are always vibing with so many people coming for fresh produce and street style food. The meat part has so many stores to choose from and there’s always something delicious to find in the deli. From small good to delicious lunch options this place has it all.

Amazing atmosphere and cheap food ($12 for 6 oysters and $6 for sugar cane juice), and so many local stalls with beautiful hand made items. Loved getting lost in the seemingly never ending aisles of the market and being surrounded by artwork, music, and delicious food.

Next to the fruits and veggies are the souvenirs market, lots of interesting things if you look all the way. Good mix of local crafts and touristy items. Definitely walk through the ailes before buying anything.

This market sells fruits, vegetables, prepared food, and souvenirs. As well as apparel. The market also open on weekends, which is perfect for tourists. Come and visit you'll be surprised this place has to offer! Highly recommended 👍😊

definitely a must-do if you’re around town! plenty of things to eat and shop ranging from clothes to kitchenware to souvenirs to fresh local harvests!! the market is pretty big and widespread with directional signs over each aisle to guide you. i would suggest allocating at least 2-3hr to properly enjoy the market.

Fresh produce and organic stores are still open in stage-4 lock down. I recommend Saturday for vegetable shopping. Better prices compared to Super markets and fresh food with more options to choose from.

nice and has old nice features.

Western food, asian food, etc. Market place for weekly groceries.. Meat, vegetables, cheese, bread, and lots more. Just to add on that the floor inside the market here is dry whereas the market where I come from is wet. I totally agree that the things that are sold here are very expensive after the conversion to Asian currency, however to take the opportunities, since I am there already, to try local produce like sausages, bacon, bread, etc. (e.g. full English breakfast). 30 years back I would have got more stuff when the currency back then is about 2 times more. Now it is 3 times more.

One of the best markets I've ever been to. Where you can buy fresh produce, clothing, belts, and so many other things, souvenirs, sunglasses and hats, and a magnificent food stall where you can buy pastries, juices, hot cooked meals, terrines and even organic wine, and many more items. It's a real treat!

Truffle festival was very good. Many different options to try truffles, from risottos, burgers, crepes, gnocchi, pizza and Mac and cheese. I had the Mac and cheese and it was pretty good. The also had shops selling fresh truffles and all types of truffles oils and salts. The live cooking class was a plus. The chef was very charismatic.

Some very unique and interesting market stalls. Plenty of events on during the year, with the Truffle Melbourne Festival being particularly amazing with lots of delicious food, drinks and shows. Lots of fresh produce, with some vendors permitting card payments now which is great, but take cash just in case. Definitely worth a visit when in the centre at a weekend!

Amazing place to spend at least a couple hours. They sell everything from fruit, vegetables, souvenirs, clothes, food, cakes, drink, just about anything that makes for as a great gift!

Amazing market. Fresh fruit and vegetables, sea food and meat. Deli and cheese, great food to takeaway and some nice bakeries and coffeehouse too.

OMG this is the best market ever. There is something for everyone. From Australian gifts, clothes, shoes, leather goods and much much more. Then there’s the food section. The fresh fruit and veges, meats and seafood. And then the best part ever, all the little delis selling the most amazing selections of cold meats, cheeses dips, olives, crackers absolutely everything you could imagine. It’s amazing. Spend a couple of hours or spend the day but just make sure you put it on your to do list.

The market has more than 100 hundreds years of history it’s a really big market that literally has anything you want. Fresh fruit and vegetable, the beef and lamp is really fresh, good. There’s an specific area that sold cheese and sausage , there are 2-3 bakeries and some bokery shop sold rolls which people eating while they are buying in market. The market lane coffee is really good and has nice coffee beans too. Highly recommend!

An absolutely amazing market - probably the very best in the world (but big assumption given I haven't traveled the world)! A great selection of everything from premium steaks, deli meats and cheeses, fresh fruit and veg, wine, cakes and pastries plus yogurts.

Love it here! Recommend getting there early to avoid it getting too crowded but even when it's busy it's a great atmosphere. Such a great morning to be spent browsing all the different areas.

I really enjoyed the artisan food part of the market and the fresh produce was amazing and delicious. I felt there were too many stalls selling cheap quality Chinese made goods which spoiled the experience a bit for me. Was nice to see the stalls that were selling good quality Australian or NZ made goods. Excellent coffee and amazing pastries available at the market.

The best market in Melbourne. I love it 🥰 it has everything you need vegetables, fruits, coffee, food, and many more. I love the night market. If you go there at night, you must try Mum’ Baklava. It’s the best baklava you’ll have ever. It’s very delicious 🤤 I used to go there with my sister and have it. Now we’re back home and missed it so much 😢❤️

A fun experience! I wish I had more time! Plenty of food and market wares. Meat is in a separate building. The produce was beautiful and fresh - make sure you shop around as the pricing was quite varied. Lots to eat from great coffee to doughnuts with a crazy long line up and roasted chestnuts. Lots of vendors still appreciate cash. Well worth a visit!

Great evening spent here. The food is just awesome each and every food truck has its own unique menu and all are equally good. I was very surprised at the quality of food and flavor being so great everywhere. Live music in the evening market makes it more enjoyable. I also visited the morning market when all the food trucks go away and are replaced with local vendors selling arts and crafts or clothing. There were few options to eat as compared to the evening . But found some nice baristas on truck for morning coffee and fresh produce of fruits and vegetables in other stalls. Worth visiting both morning and evening.

Very nice market with good food. Unfortunately it only open in the morning, however price gone done at their COB. MUSSELS are delicious, just the line is too long. There are table at the end of the hall. Don't worry about the limited seat near the shop. Don't forget the hotdog shop and the beetroot dip . Don't worry about the line up, they are efficient.

Queen Victoria Market is an absolute must-visit when you're in Melbourne! This historic market is a treasure trove of sights, sounds, and flavors. The variety of fresh produce, artisanal products, and international cuisines is astonishing. I spent hours wandering through the market, sampling delicious treats, and picking up unique gifts and souvenirs. The bustling atmosphere, friendly vendors, and rich history make Queen Victoria Market a true gem in the heart of Melbourne. Whether you're a foodie, a shopaholic, or simply looking to soak in Melbourne's vibrant culture, this market has something for everyone. Don't miss the opportunity to experience this iconic part of Melbourne's heritage – it's a delightful journey for all the senses!

I love the Queen Victoria Market. Souvenirs, yummy food, flowers and ll the little bits and pieces...such a great Flair and you can easily spend a day strolling around getting everything you need. Soooo good. One of my fave things in Melbourne 🥰

Queen Victoria Market stands out as one of the cleanest markets I've ever visited. The entire experience was delightful, especially considering our visit during the workweek when the crowd was relatively light, enhancing the overall atmosphere. The market has numerous vendors and shops, offering a wide array of souvenirs at reasonable prices. One standout was the tote bag shop, which featured lovely bags, and I couldn't resist purchasing some as souvenirs. With plenty of options for a quick bite and extensive shopping opportunities, Queen Victoria Market is a place where you can easily spend hours.

The Queen Victoria Market is just like Namdaemun Market in Korea A variety of souvenirs, leather goods, vegetables, meat, fresh fishes, and even spices are sold. You need a cash rather than a credit card in here, and you can see many local people pulling carts to buy fresh meat, fruit and fishes. It is also nice that there are many shops where you can eat various flavors.

One of the biggest market that provides all essentials. I went on a Saturday it was too much crowded. Apart from the crowd we will be having an awesome experience of shopping over there. There is space for kids, dogs.. But one simple thing I noticed was the price for fruits were different on different shops. For example I bought 1 kg cherries for 12 dollar from the entrance and the same cherries were of 8 dollar on the exit. I was wondering why the difference happened. Overall experience was good 👍

A visit to this place in Melbourne is a must! It's the perfect spot to immerse yourself in the vibrant market atmosphere, especially in the section dedicated to selling cheese, jams, bratwurst, and an array of delicious foods!

The place was amazing with a large selections of food, drinks and groceries. They had delicious sweets and cheeses. We ate so much and we could not wait to go back the next day. The prices were very reasonable and the people very nice.

Neat and beautiful market. One stop for your Groceries, clothing, shoes, arts,bakery, coffee shop. Paid parking, Free parking 6 - 9 am. Nearby tram and bus stop.

This is a must see in Melbourne. I did not give 5 stars because I visited the Adelaide market and it is more compact and charming, so it wins by comparison. Here you can find pretty much anything from fresh produce to art and souvenirs.

Always an exciting place to visit. Be it for regular shopping. Or the summer Wednesday nights market. So many different foods to try. So many great gift, souvenir stalls. Always well worth a visit.

This market is awesome. There truly is something for everyone here. From cooked foods to butchers and green grocers. From souvenirs to clothes and other cool stuff, it’s a great place with a great vibe! The summer night market is also very good! Lots of brilliant food to choose from which cater to a wide variety of dietary preferences and needs! The live music also adds to the great atmosphere!

I go to the fish section for fresh fish. When l find a good item,, a shop staffer cuts t it to fillets for sashimi and the remaining bits are used to cook a dish soup with some other fresh veges from the QV veges market.

Love visiting QV. It's like travelling overseas without luggage. Prices are the best and I always have a laugh with the Greek fishmongers.

Best place in Victoria to get all your homewares and do some shopping☺?? Plus the fresh fruit and vegetables are a must if your a foodie and love to cook with fresh ingredients.. There is also a whole section of organic fruits and vegetables too if you are going organic..The Pantry is a must for those seeking all your meat, seafood, bakery and dairy items and not to forget the cheeses.. I love cheeses????

One of the busiest market at the heart of the city. The place is known for vegetables, fruits, honey, meat and clothing items. Don't forget to carry couple of bags when you have to dwell around. If you are interested from purchasing local vendors then its a perfect place to be around.

A must visit whenever I go to Melbourne. Prices are a bit high, but the markets have a wonderful European charm, reminiscent of the markets in Eastern Europe. The Polish butcher has a great selection of Polish and German small goods.

Melbourne's heritage place. Really big market. Great place for visitors as there is big range of sovenier shops with lots of variety and really economical prices. For locals, its a very nice place for eating out and veggies shopping.

Hands down, the BEST place to shop for fresh and reasonably priced produce :)

Found this place to still offer an excellent food and produce experience, a must for all who love food.

Always great, have never had a bad experience with the local sellers in QVM

Not too crowded!! Lots of fresh meat and deli goods.

way too crowded and the food is so overpriced. they have a WIDE range of food from all around the world but most of the food is more than one portion so you might want to share one plate with more than two persons.

Best market in Melbourne.

Quite cheap but reasonable. You could really find some good souvenirs and many cheap good looking jerseys

Good good, if you bring money

So glad this market is still open. They have the best produce.

Not busy but shows the workers are striving hard to serve the needs of others as well as themselves

Great variety

It was so lovely

Beautiful market! And good prices!!

The atmosphere, the availability, the variety Simply Awesome

Lovely

(Translated by Google) The fruit is fresh and delicious (Original) 水果新鲜，好吃呦

Good experience overall.

Traditional markets nice place

You can find fresh and cheap products, it a amazing place

Good old market evened in these times

I wish I could go now but it's past my 5km

Loved my salami thanks

The market is located in the center, I like the space there

very cheap price for groceries.

Parking is easy. People are friendly. Soooo much fresh produce. Support the locals !

Cheap prices

Great variety of fresh food and vegetables. Prices are reasonable too

Best place to start your day with amazing international food and great service by friendly staff. Bargains galore with multicultural foods and the environment is good to being near the heart of Melbourne cbd you won't find any other places like this.

Great place and night market is awesome!! Lots of bargains and food is great!

Old but still worth a walk around

Loved the market!!

best borek and hot jam doughnuts in town. usually my sunday pilgrimage

(Translated by Google) It is a pleasure to "lustwalk" there :-)))))) (Original) Es ist ein Genuss dort zu "lustwandeln" :-))))))

Very nice

Low price market for buying vegetables specially for Indians.

Best place to shop in melbourne.

Definitely lost its bustle and vibe since covid but in its defence it has some amazing stalls and the deli hall is amazing as always. The stall holders here are always friendly and knowledgeable about their produce.

I love visiting this market for my fruit and veggies and everything else under the sun. The produce is sooooo fresh and amazing! The diversity and quality of food is astounding. And amazing value! They also have a section with a wide range of goods and clothing which can be a lot of fun and a great way to spend time wandering. Extremely accessible by public transport too. Oh, and if you like coffee, you’ll be in heaven.

My family get all of our fresh foods here and we absolutely love it. They have an amazing selection of stalls and you could find anything you need. All the stall owners are lovely and very helpful. The doughnut stall out the front deserves a special mention for their double jam bags😍. Highly recommend for any fresh produce shopping.

The perfect place for tourists and locals! Food in the deli section is my favourite, so many goodies you can’t get elsewhere! Awesome baked goods, fresh fruit and produce! It’s a real experience and vibey location

Always the freshest produce. Don't buy the absolute cheapest..you will be disappointed as it will be close to use by date..which is just like the supermarkets. Buy produce at the average rate you see on the day..it will be lovely and fresh and last for ages.

Awesome place, decent crowd. Decent priced,but little expensive compared to Dandenong plaza for vegetable. Clothes are cheap and of latest fashion

Lovely markets, there's a lot to see and full of small businesses and local produce with good prices for fruit and veg. Plenty of places to grab food and coffee and wander through the stalls. Definitely superior to any markets in Sydney, will definitely be coming back to QV markets when I'm in Melbourne

been here couple times when there is not pandemic and I really enjoy it with friends and family its a good place to hangout

Covid-19 has really hit hard this market. Very few people but still a great atmosphere. Half the market closed.

Beautiful place. Thanks 😊

Nice place for street shopping and vegetable market. Best way to be there is tram, finding car parking can take out the fun. Reasonable prices but not very cheap.

Its a melting pot of pure Australian Multiculturalism. Hopefully when CoV-19 restrictions has finally been complete lifting when can bring back the Night Market.

Amazing prices for fruit and vegetables. Great selection all round. Only thing .. Although, someone tried to pick pocket me in the section that has all of the apparal and Nick knacks so watch out!

'Must See' for Melbourne visitors! Full of gaudy souvenirs, but, once you get past that, some of the stalls are very interesting and the fresh produce side - fruit and vegetables stalls, meat and seafood halls and coffee and food outlets are amazing.

Very quiet today

Love this place

Great local experince, good food!

My usual market, great atmosphere, quality fish meat, poultry and vegetables

Love it! Good bread, meat, coffee, fruits and vegetables...

this has got to be one of the best places to experience melbourne. It is a place where everyone is welcome. It is also a place where you can get good quality fruit and help the Australian local farmers out more than Coles or Safeway/woolworths. It is a place where you can bargain your food rather than paying the set prices at the local supermarket.

Terrible parking fee. We have shopped here for 10 years and more. We often get 1st hour free parking. We return this morning for flowers shopping at QnFlower. Just went in and their signage still have 1st hour free. Then after 30mins wrapping a bouquet we left and they charged $6. Called the guy on speaker he said its $6 now. This is faulty and miss leading /advertising. You should remove the signage or update that you will charge $6 per hour. If this is what you try to making up the lost during covid19 with charging fee on parking, there will be less and less customer shopping at Victoria market. Even QV parking in CBD giving 2 hours free parking for shoppers. I hope you see my point so other regular shoppers dont get disappointed like me.

Lovely place to shop and catch up with friends...

Good place for a varsity of stores

(Translated by Google) Great place to buy souvenirs. There are all types and all prices. Possibility to eat in the place. I recommend buying indoor slippers in kangaroo leather and very warm wool inside. Ample paid parking. As can be seen from the photos. (Original) Ottimo posto per acquistare souvenir. C'è ne sono di tutti i tipi e di ogni prezzo. Possibilità di mangiare nel posto. Consiglio di acquistare le ciabatte da interno di pelle di canguro e lana all interno caldissime. Parcheggio a pagamento e ampio. Come si può vedere dalle foto.

Best of natural ingredients and products you can buy on Melbourne.

Some good deals

Good market.but close early .why

Kyaw Khee Facebook

Only gave 3 stars because it is undergoing renovations. I expect 4 or 5 stars when complete. Excellent fresh food stalls, worth the visit.

Multicultural and proactive place. I love!

best market in Victoria

Nice yet expensive deli items. Fish and meat are very good thou.

Love Vic Market

Great! Cheap and good quality vegetables and fruits.

Good place

Fish shop sometime so stink

All positives, no negatives-love the place!

The place to shop and eat

Market is always good

I enjoy walking around

👍🏻

Vic Market. What's not to like.

Must visit Bruce Goose. Best socks store.

I love the Queen vic markets when it's at full operation. During Covid a lot of stalls aren't opening but I'm sure will when the pandemic ends. There still a lot to see but just know it's not currently at full operation. Always worth a visit though

Good vendors, parking is overpriced but it is what it is.

Most freshest seafood absolutely amazing

Just went for a browse today and the range of fresh foods made me smile. Always good to support local producers. Didn't get to fully explore much else, but was excited by what I got to have a peek at.

Queen Victoria Market probably has the biggest variety of fruits, vegetables, meats and seafood you can find under one roof. They have gourmet cheese and speciality foods as well in the air-conditioned building. When getting fruits and vegetables in the open area, do walk around to catch a good bargain. There are some food stalls and stalls selling clothes, footwear and home furnishing; but these had gone down quite a fair bit recently probably due to the drop in tourists and visitors due to Covid-19. Parking around that area is about 1P to 2P and is usually metered. So, do remember to pay for your parking to avoid a hefty fine. The wardens are really on the ball.

Great selection of different stalls. Got some beautiful cherries. They have upped the anti since I last went to a market, that's for sure. Healthy competition gives an opportunity to get a lower price as the consumer. Good that covid wise people can keep these markets ongoing. I'll revisit.

Always great.

Best Market Around! Fresh produce is the cheapest, yet has the most flavour. The deli has everything you could ever need. Great butcher with organic, free range and hormone free options. And the coffee options are brilliant. We love our weekly shops at the market.

Live this place, fruits and seafoods were cheap, fresh. The place were also clean, but parking were expensive. Overall, better than Dandenong market:)

Good food

Nice tasty food but expensive tho

A sentimental favourite which has suffered greatly under covid. Very few stalls and even fewer customers. But if you are confident about your health, the Vicky Market is offering even better discounts than normal. I barely looked in the direction of the kangaroo skin rugs and the guy was offering me a 40% discount. And as it was near closing time, stall holders had swapped most of their signs over to $1/kg

Good food, good entertainment at Food Truck Stop

Beautiful food!!!

Opps!

Great day out. Make sure you go on a Sunday when meat is on special.

great to see the market open again. good food and bargain shopping.

So much fun with retailers a laugh a minute

Beautifull 😊👍🤗

Absolutely one of the best places to visit in THE CBD

Queen Victoria market is a place in CBD ,where Trams 58 and 57, 19 are running. This is a place where the number of vegetables , FRUITS , leather material shops, and canteen, and non veggies and milk products are available . Melbourne central rail station is nearby.

I got the apartment to be near the Queen Vic Markets they're that good.

Fruit and vegetables are the cheapest you can find anywhere on this side of the city albeit some farmers markets. The quality does range so I would recommend doing a loop and balancing out some cheap buys with quality. Prices change all the time so its pretty much a new experience each time. Meat and seafood also varies in price based on season but for the most part are cheaper than supermarket options. There's also more variety to choose from including cuts you wouldn't normally see + additional goods like offcuts, offal etc. Seafood is both fresh and frozen with great variety. Indoor section with delicatessen goods like cheeses and small goods can be quite pricey but the quality is great.

Worth a visit

Not very impressive

Life begins after COFFEE.... Couldn't agree more on a very wet & humid Friday in the city...

beautiful place to be. cheese, wine, veggies, clothes and many more at a very reasonable price

Great markets, covid restrictions in place ! Lovely people

We had a lovely time a Queen Vic Markets today. Had a look around the clothes stalls then did our food shopping in the amazing food halls - so much delicious fresh food and cheese... so much cheese!

Amazing food and even better atmosphere, would definitely recommend as it is a must for anyone in melbourne. Close to the cbd but feels so much more relaxed. Easy to get to as trams run frequently and food is cheap

Went to the market to buy seafood on a Sunday morning. Plenty of choices. Easy to access to the car park.

Queen Vic Market is such an iconic landmark to Melbourne, it is hard to not count it in the must visit places. It has got things to offer to the locals as well as tourists. For the locals it's our go to place for the freshest produce. There's the vegetable market offering really fresh fruits and veggies. There's the deli section which has a wide range of cured meats, breads, wines and chocolate. And my favorite is the meat section which has everything from red meats to sea food and everything in between. Queen Vic Market also has local vendor stalls. Go past String Bean Alley to check out some novelty stores or check out the stalls which has a wide range of items like clothes, shoes, sun glasses, etc. My favorite are the cafés and coffee shops across the market. For those using cars, there's a huge paid parking lot. I love this place, there's always something new to find here.

Good fresh produce as well as meat section (Sea food, Poultry, Meats). A wonderful deli. The best prices in Melbourne. Unfortunately though, its looking tired and incompatible with the city’s burgeoning skyline.

Great place to get fresh produce, meats and seafood. Like the little markets for clothes beanies and socks. The best American donuts.

A must visit place in Melbourne. PLENTY of choice in whatever you're looking for. Hard not to walk out without buying something. I like the way it's set out. It makes it easy to walk around and see what's on offer. Stop for coffee or have a chat with the stall holders. Sometimes while you're having that coffee you will see the funniest things, including a very large carrot. They're always happy to help.

Fresh and cheap. You can find lots of things here. I often buy flowers from Qn and grocery shopping here. Its nice to enjoy a coffee with fresh donut also while doing your shopping.

Lovely fresh produce and heaps of options for meat, veggies, fruits, and other supplies from the locals. There’s a famous donut truck here and a good coffee shop (market lane coffee). Just right for your groceries-shopping companion! Always love to check out their winter night market as well!

Such a great vibe and always amazing diversity of edibles and humans.

I've been going here my entire life and putting aside my biased nostalgia and love for the place, I have always had a beautiful, fun and peaceful time at the markets. Always finding some amazing little gems, literally and figuratively. It's especially nice with fewer people around during covid. All the interactions I've had with stall owners have been incredible. Recently I went to Lucky Stone and got the most amazing crystals at the best prices I've ever seen. The lady was very in tune with what I've been searching for and her and her husband were really kind and helpful. Really made for a beautiful first venture into the city since Feb 🙏

I love the summer night market here. So many food options. The queues can be very long so you should arrive early.

Went to night market. Fun atmosphere, wide selection of choices, including some great food trucks. We try to arrive early, check out all the choices, get a drink, find a table then take turns going to buy our food. There is also an option to reserve a table for 4+. Expect to queue for food.

I felt so alive in this market. Everyone around is so happy and welcoming. You get everything in the morning market, from veggies to house decor to clothes to small eatery shops. I would highly recommend this place, as in the morning you will get to see some live performances of emerging artists.

Amazing American donuts. Worth the wait. Overall, the market is a good place to get cheap souvenir, and have a look at the local marketplace. There are many street stalls selling international food.

Can see the appeal of the night market for some but we went at 5.30pm and it was packed. Too many people crammed in, lines for all the savoury food stalls. Prefer the day time option, much less busy and calm.

Love the market! Fresh fruit, seafood, indoor deli, and bakery shops. Flea Market isles and special events. Night market, Car shows, various festivals. Check out Whats On | City of Melbourne & local events on Facebook. Great atmosphere!

We visited the winter night market and had a wonderful time! We have been many times to the markets during the day and it’s always a hit. Highly recommend taking one of the tours that are run to see the best of the markets. During the winter months the night markets are well worth a look too!

Good place for Australian souvenir shopping. There have a lot of goods, most made in China/Indonesia, some made in Australia. Overall is fine. You can find the local goods in here with cheap price. It’s open everyday from early morning until 3 pm. On Wednesday, it has night market.

We were here in 2019 and the market was bustling. The difference between our visit then and now in September 2022 is significant. Many stalls gone. They have not yet recovered from the hardships of covid lockdowns. They need your support. The food and fresh produce markets is as awesome as ever. Oh the choices are mind boggling. So worth the visit. Iconic as ever.

This famous market is not only a tourist attraction but also loved by the locals! A bunch of different shops/kiosks selling souvenirs, fresh products like fruits and veges, and yummy food! I highly recommend the well-known doughnuts and mussels!😚😝

Came for the Winter Night Markets! Rug up, be patient and grab some mulled wine before walking around. Something warm in your hand and warm for your soul. It’s gets busy but don’t let that scare you with the lines. The vendors are quick and efficient. Dave’s Diner: bread soup bowl Dingo ate my Taco: Taco’s Hot Danish Donuts: sundaes, donuts, cheesecake 👌

It is indeed an iconic market in CBD area. Quite affordable with great selection of products. I particularly love how they offer more discounts and special prices near the end of their opening hours. Some stalls also take cards. They usually have a night market on Wednesday nights, but you’ll need to get there early to avoid unimaginable crowd and endless queues.

Large market with some history. There are cheap donuts you could get. It is made from the renovated mini van? and they show you the process. If you are fan of mussel, try the mussel hotpot they are at the end of A shed. If you love spicy food try the plain chili Mussels. Not fan, try the grilled mussel or Coconut steamed mussels. I'm not a fan of hot chocolate, but people were crazy for it. It is in the food court. They torch the marshmellow. And Give it to ya with the drink. There are other good cafes Worth visiting.

Worth a visit, many choices of shops and restaurants. You can take a walk and enjoy the food here. There’s a parking lot right next to the market place. Just park your car and pay at the machines before you leave.

Happy place on weekend , crowded especially at cured meat section. Got organic fruit and veggies here with good price. Join the queue for doughnut, enjoy with good coffee from stall here Cleanliness 👍

Some people may compare this to the South Melbourne Market, but I honestly think both markets are great! The Queen Victoria Market has a lot more choices of shops and food. It’s a fun visit to explore a wide variety of food here, from mussels specialty and chowder to Dutch pancakes, and more. And during winter, they also have a winter night market every Wednesday night. I'm not really interested in the clothes and souvenirs here, but their prices are actually not the cheapest in the city.

I love coming to the Vic Market- both with friends and the children I am nanny for. Having the passport to visit different stalls around the market and collect stamps is so much fun and gets your exploring the entire market! The donut festival was also delicious!

Queen Victoria Market is an absolute delight! I visited this iconic Melbourne gem and was blown away by the vast array of fresh groceries available. From the finest produce to delectable gourmet treats, the market caters to every culinary desire. The lively atmosphere and friendly vendors made the experience even more enjoyable. I couldn't resist taking home some unique souvenirs too! Whether you're a local or a tourist, the Queen Victoria Market is a must-visit destination that promises an unforgettable and immersive cultural experience. Highly recommended!

i came in winter, there's a lot of variety of things sold here ranging from seafood, vegetable, fruit, wine, cheese, etc personally i thinks it's more like tourist spot rather than casual local market, but the place is nice and clean, love to be back someday

Wirklich sehr beeindruckender Markt. Hier gibt es alles über Kleidung, Ramsch, Souvenirs, Obst und Gemüse sowie Fisch, Fleisch und Käse in den angrenzenden Hallen. Was wir hier aber vergeblich gesucht haben, war eine Möglichkeit etwas Kleines zu Essen. Es gibt zwar vereinzelt Stände, aber kaum etwas wirklich Ansprechendes. Der Markt an sich aber absolut einen Besuch wert.

Visited the market on a Friday morning. It was amazing to see a lot of local produce. They are fresh! Apart from that, you can get your fashion needs here as well (though may be on the pricier side). A lot of various food stalls to select from, and definitely worth trying them out. We went before breakfast, so we got different food as our breakfast.

A tourist got to do the tourist thing… so we drop by to have a look.. we were there around 1-2pm on a Sunday and notice slowly some stalls have started packing… still there were many other stalls to check out and to enjoy some ice cream on a cold day in early August 2023.

Nice market atmosphere with a lot of options. Fresh meat, produce, and seafood at affordable prices. I also like the deli section with dips and cured meat. I can come here every week and always get something new to buy. Definitely a must visit place in Melbourne.

It is one of the famous markets in Melbourne. The market is very large. There are many different shops and good coffee shops. But there are few seats to eat. May not be suitable for eating a large meal.

We visited this traditional market in the heart of Melbourne. There are sections with fresh produce, food and also a variety of goods such as apparel, caps, bags, souvenirs and more. It is nice to walk about and browse and a great place to buy souvenirs at good prices.

Wonderful place for the senses of sight, sound, smell and taste. Everything is fresh , the vendors friendly and generous with their samples. Gather everything you need for a sumptuous picnic!

If you're into interesting & vibrant markets, then the Queen Victoria Market is for you. There's a fantastic variety of stall holders, including clothing, leather goods, jewellery, bags, shoes, Australiana, plants, art, toys, not to mention an extensive food area, with foods from many cultures. Today l had the best hot chocolate I've ever had & crepes to die for! Honestly, if you're after something vibrant to do while you're in Melbourne, give these historic markets a try. You won't be disappointed. 🙂🙂🙂

Everything you need to eat, wear and cook under one roof! Fresh produce galore. Nice place to get Australian souvenirs too. Look out for the affordable burgers at the deli section near the entrance.

A great place to visit and get the weekend feeling of busy Melbourne on a Saturday morning. It was very busy and quite crowded but definitely worth a visit. You have the food and non-food section that is very big and the food market with very fresh and great looking produce.

Queen Vic Market is a wet n dry market where you can get stuff cheaper than other places. I got souvenirs at a very good bargain there. Must try the fresh oysters n prawns. I was worried of its cleanliness. My stomach didn't give me problem so I went back d 2nd day to eat more oysters n baby lobsters

Big market place for meat, poultry, vegetables, fruits and various things like bags, decoration turners, apparel , souvenirs etc etc . While fresh fruits ,vegetables, meat &poultry are available definitely at much lower prices it’s not so for others . It’s all a cash market . Traders prefer cash and for card payments they even charge extra 1-2 dollars . Bags and souvenirs found even costlier than other markets / mall show rooms

Went on Foodie Tour. Absolutely fantastic. Very knowledgeable host and the traders were exceptional. Good variety of food to taste. Well worth experiencing.

A nice place to visit while in Melbourne. Wednesday evenings there are live music shows and lots of eateries for any taste. The food is a little pricey but that's valid for the whole Melbourne so at least don't expect deals. During the week the market is open in the morning and during the day except on Wednesdays because of the night market. The day market is split in two, a vegetables and fruits side and a crafts, souvenirs, clothing etc. side. You can haggle a little bit but don't expect big discounts. During the day market there are also lots of places to eat.

A must do when visiting Melbourne. Great food and produce. Wonderful market characters. The best Melbourne has to offer In seafood, meat, delicatessen, bread and coffee. Souvenirs and collectibles.

I’m a visitor to Melbourne and I wish we had this market where I live. If I lived here, I would buy all my fruits, vegetables, meat, etc from here. But the fruits and vegetables especially cannot be beat. Come in the morning and get your fresh pick of the produce. Other items on sale as well such as mobile phone cases, clothes, hardware goods, socks, candles, sheepskin covers, carts, you name it. A number of food trucks on site for when you get hungry. Make sure to get some hot jam doughnuts - 5 for $10. Long line but it moves fast.

Buying fresh seafood, meats, fruits & veggies here always is a delightful experience with very reasonable prices especially after lunch over the weekends on both Saturdays & Sundays. Scotch fillet that I recently bought here has turned out to be some lovely dishes at home including the pan-fried steaks & roast beef.

✔️😍 It is one of the most iconic places in the city. In summer you can enjoy the market at night, while in winter it is during the day (check days and times). You can try flavors from all over the world, listen to music and buy gifts or souvenirs. It has a relaxed but quite busy atmosphere. Without a doubt I recommend it. you can follow me 🤙🏽🤙🏽
