Brunswick Street

Upon exiting the building, if you take a left hand turn and walk West along Argyle Street, within a two minute walk you will be right in the middle of Brunswick Street. From there, you can either go left or right and you will be surrounded by all types of eateries, bars and cafes.

Brunswick St has a mixture of eclectic and interesting shops, clothes and food. If street art is your thing, the surrounding alleyways and backstreets are also interesting as there is an ever-changing array of graffiti, stencils, stickers etc on show.

For easy access into Melbourne city, jump on the number 11 tram which runs along Brunswick Street which will take you into the heart of the CBD.

Smith Street

Melbournes newest foodie destination has to be Smith Street in Collingwood. Here you will find some of the best local eateries around. If you are standing at the front of our building, take a right and walk East along Argyle Street. Walk down a couple of blocks and take a right along Smith Street. If it's a nice evening out and you don't have much on, take a walk to Gelato Messina which is half way along Smith Street on the right-hand side. This popular Gelateria is busy every night and you might find yourself in a line just to sample some of their tasty offerings. Well worth the effort!

Gertrude Street

A little further on along Smith Street, take a right along Gertrude Street and check out the eclectic shops, bars and cafes. You can walk along Gertrude Street back to Brunswick Street, take another right and walk back to your apartment.

Melbourne City guides are on the coffee table of each apartment and are a wealth of knowledge about our great city. If you have any specific questions for us, email us on info@districtfitzroy.com.au and one of my staff will happily reply to you.
