GPO

The historic Melbourne General Post Office (GPO) reopened in August 2004 as a fashion, food and shopping precinct of serious sophistication. Covering an entire city block it houses more than 60 stores that span the spectrum of the Melbourne shopping experience.

Fashion
GPO features some of the best names in fashion. Discover funky threads for guys and girls at Roy, Ben Sherman and Camper Shoes. Get European menswear from Satori and Harrolds Shirt. Find gorgeous gear for girls at Wayne Cooper, Akira, Zimmerman and Nicolangėla. The list of high profile contemporary brands goes on.

Food and wine
Head to GPO Lane and discover Melbourne's newest food precinct. Savour authentic Japanese cuisine at Kenzan, enjoy Floretine-style food and wine with flair at Nostro Baretto and discover the essence of Mediterranean fare at Ca De Vin. Federal Coffee Palace is located under the Elizabeth Street colonnade and offers coffee and light meals to sustain the ardent shopper. And you can stop in at Juliet's Champagne Bar on level 1 for a refreshing glass of bubbly.

The rest
Take a break and pamper yourself at DNA Body Boutique or Heading Out Hair & Beauty. Pick up a new bag or accessories from Mandarina Duck or Mimco, let Georg Jensen be your jeweller, and get your specs from Occhio. And finally, get books, CDs and DVDs from the ABC Shop.

Getting to GPO
The heritage-listed and gleaming white GPO building is located on the corner of Bourke and Elizabeth streets. Catch any tram on Bourke or Elizabeth streets or catch a train to Flinders Street Station and stroll north along Elizabeth Street.
