located close to a tram station which was very convenient. visited on a saturday - crowded but manageable. good variety of food items (cooked and raw) as well as household goods and souvenirs. market was very well maintained (clean), dustbins available at every corners. toilets were very clean as well. honestly expected the market to be larger, but because of its smaller size it was easy to walk through the market in less than 3h including time to snack.
South Melbourne Market never disappoints! Every time I visit, I find something new to enjoy. The fresh produce section is top-notch, with vibrant colors and a wide selection of fruits, vegetables, and meats. I love the seafood section, where I can get fresh oysters and prawns straight from the source. The food stalls offer a diverse range of cuisines, from authentic dim sum to delicious pastries. What I also appreciate is the community vibe—it feels like a local gathering spot. Even though it can get crowded, the buzz and energy add to the experience. A perfect weekend destination!
It is so changed since my visits in the early 1980’s. A fun market and a wide range of choices. The fruit and veg was also cheaper than at the Queen Victoria Market
Some of the best food, especially sushi, we have had in Melbourne!!!! Aptus Seafood Grill was amazing!!! I think I was talking to one of the owners and didn’t even know it. Nice guy. My Cookie Factory was delicious and had very nice visit with the owner too!! My 8 year old granddaughter had a blast shopping. Not much for the men but lots of shops for the ladies. We will go back every time we visit from the states!!!
Amazing! Fresh produce, from fruit and veg, through meat and seafood, to bread and deli.
Several oysters bars, all delicious! AU$ 20-25 for a tray.
There are many different stalls with clothing, kitchen supplies, cosmetics, plants and flowers. There is a separate food court and wine/ beer shops.
Much recommended but keep in mind that is super busy during a weekend

Pretty nice. A combination of all kinds of things, from food to clothes. Some are nice but some are average. I suggest try before you buy. Also, the seating is pretty bad. Most of the food shops have no seats but some bench tables. You have to stand up and eat.
Up front: DON’T EAT BEFORE YOU GO THERE!!!
With so many food stalls, you’ll want to sample the many delectable delights on offer.
There was a broad array of stalls - jewellery, plants, fruit, deli, cheese, seafood, bags, clothes, toys, vinyl records - so much to see.
Don’t expect it to be clearance prices though, you’ll pay retail.
