Correction (3 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources between 2 October 2026 and 3 October 2026, and every price was copied from the page it was published on.
Only one shopping centre on this page has a Mulgrave address: Waverley Gardens, on Police Road. The rest sit in neighbouring Wheelers Hill and Springvale, so this is a page for shopping “in and around Mulgrave”, and each heading carries the centre’s own suburb.
There are six entries but four destinations. Springvale Homemaker Centre, Anaconda and IKEA share one address on Princes Highway, and the Homemaker Centre’s own store list names the other two. Each entry is described from what the centre or store says on its own pages: hours, parking and the shops it lists. We read no price lists for the centres, so the only prices here are the two IKEA food offers.

Waverley Gardens Shopping Centre — 271 Police Road, Mulgrave VIC 3170
The centre’s own site gives its address as 271 Police Road, Mulgrave. OpenStreetMap tags the street number as 371, so we use the centre’s number. The site lists Coles, Woolworths, ALDI and Big W among its majors, and shows Coles trading 7:00 AM - 10:00 PM on Monday. For the centre itself, its hours page reads Monday to Wednesday 9:00 AM - 5:30 PM, Thursday and Friday 9:00 AM - 7:00 PM, Saturday 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM and Sunday 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM. OpenStreetMap’s hours tag runs later on Thursday and Friday, so confirm on the day.
On parking and facilities, the site says “With over 2,000 parking spaces, you’re sure to find a spot.” and “Our electric vehicle charging stations are complimentary for customers.” It also says the centre is home to two children’s playgrounds. The line about parking spaces does not say whether they are free, so we do not say.
Known for: four named major retailers (Coles, Woolworths, ALDI and Big W), plus free electric vehicle charging for customers, per the centre’s own site.
HomeCo. Brandon Park (Brandon Park Shopping Centre) — 580 Ferntree Gully Road, Wheelers Hill VIC 3150
This is Wheelers Hill, not Mulgrave. The centre’s HomeCo. page gives 580 Ferntree Gully Road; OpenStreetMap names the street Springvale Road, so we use the centre’s own address. The page lists its hours one day at a time for the coming week. For the week from Saturday 3 October, it shows 9am - 5pm on Saturday, 10am - 5pm on Sunday, 9am - 5:30pm from Monday to Wednesday, and 9am - 9pm on Thursday 8 October and Friday 9 October. Each store in the directory shows its own hours, and some differ from the centre’s, so check the store you want.
Its store directory includes Aldi, Coles, Cafe Verdi, The Coffee Club and Gourmet Pantry. The centre’s home page carries a “Centre Update – Ground Floor Renovations Underway” notice, so expect the layout to change.
Known for: a published week of hours with late trading on Thursday and Friday, per the centre’s own page.
Wheelers Hill Shopping Centre — 190 Jells Road, Wheelers Hill VIC 3150
Also Wheelers Hill. The centre’s site says “We are open from Monday to Saturday, with late trading on Thursdays and Fridays. Woolworths and some of specialty stores/restaurants are also open on Sunday.” It gives no per-day hours on the pages we read. OpenStreetMap’s hours tag lists Sunday as off, which the centre’s own wording contradicts, so check the day before you go.
The site says “There are over 300 customer car parking spaces available for use for free” and describes “over 30 specialty stores including fresh produce, restaurants, takeaway food, health and beauty, and professional services”. It also lists “monthly sausage sizzle fundraisers on the second Saturday of every month”.
Known for: free customer parking and a mix of specialty stores, as the centre describes itself.
Springvale Homemaker Centre — 917 Princes Highway (corner Westall Road), Springvale VIC 3171
The Homemaker Centre is in Springvale, and its own site says “27 stores”. The store list names IKEA, Anaconda, Harvey Norman, Domayne, JB Hi-Fi, Adairs, Pillow Talk, Boost Juice Bars, Caffeine Trader and Sushi Sushi. Its hours text reads Mon to Wed 10.00am - 6.00pm, Thur & Fri 10.00am - 9.00pm and Sat & Sun 10.00am - 6.00pm. The site adds that hours “will vary as necessary for promotional periods”, so check before a long drive. It also says “Free undercover parking, every day.”
Known for: large-format stores in one precinct and Thursday and Friday trading to 9.00pm, per the centre’s own site.
Anaconda Springvale (Springvale Homemaker Centre) — 917 Princes Highway, Springvale VIC 3171
Anaconda is a store inside the Homemaker Centre, not a centre of its own. OpenStreetMap tags it as an outdoor shop at 917 Princes Highway, and the Homemaker Centre’s site lists it among its stores. We could not read Anaconda’s own site, so there is nothing here about its range or prices, and we state no hours for it.
Known for: being on the Homemaker Centre’s own store list, which is all the public record we could confirm.
IKEA Springvale (Swedish Restaurant and Bistro) — 917 Princes Highway, Springvale VIC 3171
IKEA’s store page for Springvale lists the store as open Monday - Saturday 10:00 am - 9:00 pm and Sunday 10:00 am - 7:00 pm, and the restaurant as open Monday - Saturday 9:30 am - 8:30 pm and Sunday 9:30 am - 6:30 pm, with “Breakfast served until 11 am”. It says “Over 1500 free car parks are available” and lists “kids’ menu options”.
On the food page, a cinnamon bun has a regular price of $2, with a lower price shown for IKEA Family members. The same page lists a family meal: “For $33, IKEA Family members can enjoy 2 x 8-piece meatball or plant ball dishes, 2 x kids 5-piece meatball or plant ball dishes and 4 x soft drinks (post mix) ($50 for non-members).” Those are the offers shown the day we read the page. The family meal is a limited-time offer, so its member and non-member prices are not permanent menu prices; the only everyday price here is the $2 cinnamon bun.
Listed prices (copied from ikea.com on 3 October 2026):
- Cinnamon bun: $2
- Family meal for IKEA Family members: 2 x 8-piece meatball/plant ball dishes + 2 x kids 5-piece + 4 soft drinks: $33 members / $50 non-members
Price point: a cinnamon bun at a regular $2, and a family meal at $50 for non-members ($33 for IKEA Family members) while the offer runs, per IKEA’s food page on 3 October 2026.
