Greek precinct

Set yourself adrift under the starry lights of the Lonsdale-Russell Street intersection, in the heart of Melbourne’s own Mediterranean.

Athens might be a world away, but Grecian delights await discovery in Melbourne's Greek Precinct. At all hours of the day and night, this corner is a treasure trove of mouth-watering delights.

Bask in the sun or under the stars in the Greek Precinct’s al fresco culture and treat yourself to a tasty lunch, sweet treats or a coffee hit. Look beyond the tables and chairs and you’ll uncover everything from magazines, music, books and jewellery, to shoes, travel agents, and divine religious icons.

Lonsdale Street’s lively after dark atmosphere will excite those looking to boogie to the latest Greek dance music or those on a mission to satisfy their late-night souvlaki cravings.

For more information, contact Lonsdale Street Greek Precinct Association.
