The vendors, the restaurants, and what to order
Tucked inside the Hudson, the Public Market packs a lot of good eating into one room: sit-down restaurants, grab-and-go stalls, specialty groceries, and a few downtown bites just outside the doors. Our coverage rounds up the spots worth your appetite.
Tenants and hours shift over time, so use these stories for the lay of the land and confirm the specifics before you go. When you want to roam wider, see our guide to markets across Victoria, our favourite specialty grocery stores, the farmers markets, and the big-picture Victoria foodie guide.
One thing to keep in mind: a market this busy turns over now and then, so a vendor we loved last season may have moved on. Check with the Public Market or the vendor for the current word.
