Exploring the Coburg Night Market
Australia’s favourite season is finally here. And what better way for residents in Coburg and surrounding suburbs to enjoy it than with live music, hand-made goods and of course, street food hot off the grill.
The Coburg Night Market will be held every Friday until December 18, which means even if you’ve made plans on one of these dates, you still have another opportunity to experience it. So what exactly can you expect to see, taste and hear at the event? Let’s take a look at some of the more interesting things on offer.
Get in my belly
From classic Australian favourites to bold cultural flavours, there will be a wide range of food to tingle your taste buds. If you’re after something a bit different, check out the Boss Man Food Jerk Hut, which sells Jamaican and other Caribbean street food.
Craving Asian cuisine? Stop by Nici Nunu and pick up some great Shanghainese finger food. Then, wash it all down with cool and fresh coconut juice from the Coconut Hub.
Going shopping
The Coburg Night Market is also the perfect place to shop for some of the most charming and interesting crafts and clothing made in Melbourne.
Are you a movie and TV show aficionado? If so, Meet Me In Shermer will be a stall to look out for, which sells greeting cards and art with a heavy slant toward pop culture and movie references.
Terrariums by Ella is another store that stands out, selling miniature gardens creatively presented in fish bowls, light bulbs and even dinosaur figurines.
