From fresh produce sellers, to trendy vintage stalls, people in Melbourne love their markets. It is pretty understandable, there are some great ones around that will suit whatever you're looking for.

Is there one market out of many that outshines all others, that caters to every need and does it so well? Have you come across a market heaven that has every hard to find treasure you could ever dream of? Well if that is the case, or if you've just found a market that you like a lot, then we want to know all about it. We're on the lookout for Melbourne's Best Market, and it's going to be a very tight contention. Check out our ideas on what might take top spot, but we want to know is what you think.

The Queen Victoria Markets are one of Melbourne's most well known Markets. Here you'll find fantastic fresh produce, as well as some tasty places to eat lunch. The rest of the market can be a little hit and miss, with a focus on souvenirs and tourist orientated stalls. It may be the most publicised market, but is it Melbourne's best?

Take Home Some Fresh Fish


If you're looking for a market that isn't based around fresh produce then maybe the North Melbourne Market is more your style. Here you'll find vintage fashion and accessories, alongside other collectables, homewares, crafts, and jewellery. Or perhaps you like to peruse the Laverton Rubble and Riches Market, to try and find some hidden treasures amongst its wares.

Arty Melbourne locals may prefer to check out the Rose Street Artists' Market, where you can check out and buy local art without having to deal with large galleries. This isn't all that is on offer here, you'll also find photography, fashion, jewellery, accessories, homewares, as well as some tasty food to eat.

Whether you are after some fresh fish, or a fancy frock, chances are that there is a market out there that is perfect for you. Most markets combine some great elements to create a place that is great for shopping, eating, and exploring. If you have a market that you think rocks make sure you tell us just where it is, so that we can all enjoy Melbourne's Best Market.

I really like the St Kilda Market - it's a craft market with huge variety. And it's by the beach so you get great views over the bay as well.
