    A beautiful building. A great selection of shops and eateries. With the restaurant tables lined up outside, gives a very European feel.

    With this Covid Lockdown being removed it was great to get out and about. Haven't been there for so long and when we did get there it is all so different. Very Clean environment on the day we attended. Was quite busy, but that's good to see people going back into the city. If you haven't been there for a while, like us, do yourself a favour and go. It was the perfect day for us, great weather, walked around and shopped some, stopped for lunch and had a great pizza in one of the cafe's. Loved it

    Good shops for clothes and accessories in the Arcade. The lower floor also has a large Dymocks store. Third floor has restaurants and restrooms.

    I was quite fascinated by this place, the decor is very interesting and the food court area is very relaxing with all restaurants painted in black. Nice seating area and toilet is very nice and clean.

  • 1/5 Erica M. 1 year ago on Google
    This arcade is now a building site.

  • 1/5 Philip K. 2 years ago on Google
    I think the reviewers here are confusing The Walk Arcade with the Royal Arcade next door. The Walk Arcade closed in 2021 and is being redeveloped by a property investor into a new retail and hotel building.

  • 5/5 Jeff E. 4 years ago on Google
    Beautiful shopping centre even if you don't want to buy anything or don't want to shop it's beautiful to walk through and look at the stores and the architecture

  • 2/5 Tom M. 3 years ago on Google
    Pretty useless little arcade. Only use it as a thoroughfare.

  • 5/5 Nathan T. 4 years ago on Google
    Nice little area consisting of lots of unique shops plus the architecture around is really nice and worth checking even by itself

  • 4/5 Shaun C. 4 years ago on Google
    Love this place, not much you can't find here. For a visitor it's got you covered and it's got plenty of side streets filled with stores to help you out as well.

  • 5/5 Paulo R. 4 years ago on Google

  • 3/5 Brock L. 2 years ago on Google
    The Walk Arcade has been closed for some time and is currently undergoing reconstruction and redevelopment! Hopefully wen the necessary works have been carried out, it'll be a much better place than before!🏗🧱🚜

  • 5/5 Andre M. 2 years ago on Google
    arcade is a nice place to go to shop, always live music to entertain you and plenty of different shop, in the heart of the city so easy to get to

  • 5/5 Stephen S. 2 years ago on Google
    Fantastic original arcade from the Marvellous Melbourne days. Worth a visit any time you're in town

  • 5/5 F.W P. 3 years ago on Google
    If you like walking...like....really walking this is the place for you! You can walk, saunter, loiter, wander and peruse to your heart's content. They've got shops n stuff here but I don't remember what they have and who knows if they are still there now that the plague has swept through the city making it a soul less husk. Great place for coffee and tea!

  • 3/5 Near 40's travel t. 4 years ago on Google
    Just another thoroughfare to Bourke at most shops are pretty unnoteworthy..but if you need a quick way through from Collins st it's probably your best bet.

  • 5/5 Robert S. 2 years ago on Google
    I always love walking through here and then on to degraves for lunch

  • 5/5 Jason M. 2 years ago on Google
    The Walk Arcade is part of the "Ecky Travel Unassociated Eats" centre of the Melbourne CBD Australia, bring $750:50 and check out the breakfast menu starting as a loop Flinders St Station straight into deGraves St basically a wander around going clockwise while spinning out, bring a backpack for the ultra-picky T-shirt hunter, must-do for Beers at Young & Jacksons aka Princes Hotel actually plan on downing 1 pint per Pub, you'll be informed when a Tram is leaving the "free Tram zone" so simply hit the buzzer the return is always directly diagonal at most difficult --- catch the Trams up hills get Beer then roll back down --- estimated days to explore %100 of retail in the Melbourne CBD 150-175hrs.
