Must-Visit Eats at Queen Victoria Market π¦πΊπ΄
Every time I visit this iconic Melbourne market, these are my non-negotiable stops - trust me, you'll want to bookmark this list! 1οΈβ£ The Mussel Pot (Seafood Heaven!) π¦ͺ π Location: Fresh Produce Area My ultimate obsession is their coconut cream mussels - the broth is so luxuriously creamy I could drink it straight from the bowl! π₯₯ The real magic happens when you dip crusty bread into that aromatic coconut sauce - pure bliss. Their grilled garlic version is decent too (mussels stay juicy), though the sauce runs drier. Pro Tip: Come hungry - portions are generous! 2οΈβ£ Coconut Cold Brew Stand βπ₯₯ π Location: Right next to The Mussel Pot For 12 AUD, this refreshing coconut cold brew is summer in a cup! The drink comes topped with fresh coconut flesh you can scoop out - perfect balance of rich coffee and tropical sweetness. 3οΈβ£ Publique Bakery (New Gem!) π₯ π Location: Market's Artisan Quarter Their mocha croissant is a flaky, buttery masterpiece - not overly sweet with the perfect crisp-to-airy-layers ratio. The chocolate-mocha filling is divinely balanced (no sugar crashes here!). Also Try: Their almond croissants shatter beautifully! 4οΈβ£ Romanello's Focaccia Pizza π π Location: Street-front stall (can't miss it!) I randomly picked one of their focaccia-based pizzas and it blew me away! The dough is crispy-edged yet pillowy, topped with quality ingredients. Don't overthink it - just point at whatever looks good! Why This Market Rules: βοΈ Everything's fresh (many stalls source directly from producers) βοΈ Wild variety in compact space βοΈ Lively atmosphere with street performers #QueenVicMarket #MelbourneFood #TravelAustralia #FoodieFinds #MarketEats πβ¨
