Chapel Street

Prahran Fodor's Choice

The heart of the trendy South Yarra–Prahran–Windsor area, this long road is packed with pubs, bars, notable restaurants, and upscale boutiques—more than 1,000 shops can be found within the precinct. Australian icons like Dinosaur Designs and Scanlan Theodore showcase their original work at the fashion-conscious, upscale Toorak Road end of the street (nearest to the city). Catch the 78 tram or walk south along Chapel Street to Greville Street and visit a small lane of hip bars, clothing boutiques, and record stores. Past Greville Street, moving into Windsor at the south end of Chapel Street, things get hipper, with cafés and vintage shops; this part of Chapel Street has three great markets selling everything from fresh produce to vintage records.

Bridge Road

Richmond

Once a run-down area of Richmond, this street hosts factory outlets selling fashion and leather goods; refuel at spots like 360 Beer, Vlado's steak house, the Motley Hotel's streetfront café, or Oster Italian osteria. Take tram No. 48 or No. 75 from the city.
