The Neighborhood:
Separated from the CBD by Melbourne’s sporting precinct, this area along the Birrarung (Yarra River) was a gathering place for members of the Kulin Nation long before the stadiums were erected. There are three distinct vibes here: Victoria Street is Melbourne’s go-to destination for Vietnamese food; Bridge Road is known for its factory outlets, both fashion and furniture; and Swan Street brims with some of the suburb’s best restaurants and cafés. And Richmond is home to one of Melbourne’s most beloved live music institutions, the Corner Hotel. It’s also a very community-minded suburb, with the Richmond Churches Food Centre distributing much-needed food to anyone who needs it for the past 30 years – including all through Melbourne’s lockdowns. Yarra Council, which includes Richmond, was one of the first local governments in the world to declare a climate emergency, and has committed to an ambitious plan to make the suburb greener for good.
The perfect day: Start your day with blueberry-and-ricotta hotcakes at Church Street café, Top Paddock, then do a bit of window (or actual!) shopping at the outlets along nearby Bridge Road. Pick up a bánh mi for lunch at Phuoc Thanh. If there’s no sport on, you can go on a behind-the-scenes tour at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. In the evening, settle into the Corner Hotel for a proper pub meal and rock out to some live music.
Plan your trip: For when the footy’s on. If the Richmond Tigers are playing, don yellow and black and join the Tiger Army.
Getting Around:
Richmond has four train stations: North Richmond, West Richmond, East Richmond, and Richmond. The latter is the suburb’s major hub located on the easternmost point of Swan Street. The suburb is serviced by five trams from the CBD (12, 109, 48, 70 and 75). The 78 tram runs from north to south via Church Street.
