Bridge Road has evolved

Bridge Road’s community is as diverse as it is vibrant. By day artisan providores and beloved cafes are filled with locals and workers grabbing a bite between meetings. An assortment of retailers, both big and bespoke, make it one of Melbourne’s top places to shop for furniture, homewares and gifts. Add in the precinct’s growing mecca of hair, beauty, health and wellness services and a lifestyle of ease emerges. And as night falls, the area continues to come alive in its heritage pubs, cosy wine bars and some of the city’s best restaurants.

And there are so many avenues to get here – especially greener ones. Jump on a tram; it runs through the centre of Bridge Road. Catch a train to Jolimont or West Richmond train stations and explore the residential streets that lead here on your way. Or strap on your walking shoes and pound the pavement. And if you need the car? There’s plenty of on-street parking here, too.

Come explore. You might just stay a while.
