Love the market especially during Wednesday nights when they have the night market. All the food!
Jeff JacksonMay 23, 2014This place has a simply amazing selection of fresh food and produce at very fair prices. Well worth a visit.
Özgün UsalMarch 16, 2015There are always cheaper prices. For the fruit sessions I would wait for the late hours, then it comes cheaper. ( as a side effect the good ones are sold )
Benedict BernabeOctober 24, 2011Head there during the mess that is the last market hour of Saturday (2pm-3pm) and get a great deal on fresh produce. $2 per BOX of avocados, anyone? Looks like we're having guacamole!
Sean RobertsonFebruary 2, 2019The market tour was great fun. Do not eat breakfast before the tour and don’t plan on eating lunch afterwards.
Marianita ChividiniJanuary 25, 2015You can buy whatever you want: food, clothes, souvenirs, shoes...is cheaper than other places in same things
Clara M.September 2, 2013Very good products, from the organics veggies to the big pieces of meat, from the juicy mozzarella to the very fresh fishes.
The chicken place near the bottom door of the produce hall does great $5 chicken ribs & chips boxes. Not fashionable but very tasty.
Putra PuteraNovember 20, 2013The price is more cheaper than normal mall. If you want get some shoes this place for budget traveling .
Aus CauseMay 31, 2012The Queen Victoria Market is a major landmark in Melbourne, Australia, and at around seven hectares is the largest open air market in the Southern Hemisphere.
NajubeFebruary 15, 2013Love the QVM! Stay well clear of Pide Bread Bakery though: unsanitary food handling and storage, unqualified staff and a general disgrace to its location.
Eye morelandAugust 29, 2018Make sure you do a a full loop before picking your snack there is a superset food area apart from the stalls.
BakaSheeP 램March 6, 2015Such a great experience during their night market!!! Love the fried squid and sangria!!!
Yondering MonkeysJanuary 3, 2016Cheap bargains if you go at the end of the day. Fresh fish, meat, fruit, vegs & lot of cheese.
If you like high quality beautiful Chinese porcelain check out the shop of Unique Corporation in Peel Street across the road from QVM
Glenda UyDecember 28, 2013Ripe cafe at the foodcourt has a special big breakfast with coffee or tea for A$12.50.
Electrified PerthMarch 19, 2014Bring your walking shoes, there's lots to see and buy. Great for jewellery and handmade crafts!
Tas (✿╹◡╹)November 16, 2018Come before 11am to avoid crowds and taste the truck specialties. Lots of Australia honey available. Fresh fruits are extremely expensive!!
Suhas SFebruary 7, 2015Come early to get fresh products and less crowd or be during closing time to get good bargains
The produce is the cheapest and freshest I've come across so far for Melbourne markets
Make sure wear runners or comfy shoes. Too much walking. And make sure u look around for cheap stores (different stores different prices same products)
Matthew TilleardDecember 27, 2013A Melbourne institution. Copious fresh food. Great coffee. Amazing Boreks.
Christopher PestanoFebruary 19, 2015There's something here for everyone. Why not try wines straight from the barrel?

Great Ocean Road ...June 10, 2012Shop in the morning at the Queen Victoria Market then head down the Great Ocean Road. Easy directions from the iPhone App. Read more
The fresh produce is a lot lower in quality in the mornings. At 2pm the choice is poor. Definitely come in the morning!
The peppered kangaroo from The Chicken Pantry (stall 85 in the deli hall) is amazing. Get some of the bull boar sausage while you're there.- Kai PanMay 25, 2014Buy all your kitschy souvenirs here as everywhere else in Australia is many times more expensive! The price difference is holy crap astonishingly huge. Oh the woes of being tourists...
Paulo JuniorFebruary 3, 2013Nice and cheap souvenirs in Melbourne city. Good food and friendly people, awesome...
Emanuel ZeilingerSeptember 28, 2017Everything here you need. Souvenirs, food,... mostly asian people 😉
