This lively neighbourhood has the character and the stamina to keep you busy from day to night, and back to day again.
Looking for a quiet alternative? Prahran also offers a sophisticated dining scene and leafy residential backstreets. Between the shopping mecca of Chapel Street and the low-key cool of Greville Street with its record stores and boutiques, friendly Prahran still manages to possess a village-like feel. The shopping is first-rate, and vintage fans can look to the delightful Chapel Street Bazaar where they’re likely to unearth a treasure or two amongst the store’s baroque spoils.
While chic cafés are plentiful the numerous design studios and art galleries are a nod to the area’s creative past. Iconic Prahran Market further cements the neighbourhood’s reputation as one of Melbourne’s premier foodie destinations.

The Yalukit-willam are associated with the coastal land at the head of Port Phillip Bay that extends from the Werribee River, across to Williamstown, Port Melbourne, St. Kilda, and Prahran.
