Shops in Fitzroy
The people walking the streets of Fitzroy tell the story of the shops you will find there. Pre-loved fashion has found its home here. Shopfronts display a mixture of art, design, bookshops (new and second-hand), on-trend fashion, local designers and much that is a little unusual. From a new bike to a new haircut, Fitzroy provides you with options. Here are some of our top picks.
Shop
Gelato Messina
Sydney's favourite gelato chain is just as popular in Melbourne. Sometimes going for an ice-cream here – with the big crowds, cool staff and house music blaring – feels more like waiting in line at nightclub. It would almost be frustrating, if the gelato here weren't so good.
Shop
Hinoki Japanese Pantry
A high-grade sushi bar and an impressive pantry of hard-to-find Japanese groceries. Stop in for fresh sushi, sweet daifuku, noodles, pickling starter packs and more. Or pick up Japanese ceramics, konro barbeques, glassware and knives for your own kitchen.
Shop
Hunter Gatherer
Most of the hunting has been done for you at this vintage and second-hand clothing boutique, which is organised by dedicated volunteers from the Brotherhood of St Laurence. The racks are tight with pre-loved clothes (both vintage and contemporary), accessories, shoes, homewares and plenty of knick-knacks.
