Established in 1870, this Arcade is a piece of living Melbourne retail history, and truly a pleasurable inner city shopping experience. As fashionable as ever, some interesting stores that it now showcases include Babushkas (selling traditional Russian crafts), Luciano (an intimate fully licenced restaurant), Spellbox, Prouds Jewellers, Rasa Rani Indian Imports, Golden Lamp Bookshop, Malakal Sushi Bar, Dungeon of Music and Anonymous Posh. There is everything from bric-a-brac, novelty gifts, good food and fine jewellery - even a tailoring service.
