Richmond Markets and Fresh Food: One Market, Two Shops

Title card: Richmond Markets and Fresh Food: One Market, Two Shops

Correction (4 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 on 4 October 2026.

Richmond has one true market we could verify, and this page says so rather than padding the list. The other two places are fresh-food shops on Bridge Road, so there are three places in all, every one of them in Richmond.

The market is Gleadell Street Market, run by Yarra City Council. The shops are Demaria’s Grocer and Laikon Deli. Each was checked against two independent sources, and every fact below is attributed to the source that states it.

Gleadell Street Market — Gleadell Street, Richmond VIC 3121

Yarra City Council operates Gleadell Street Market, and its page lists the hours as every Saturday 7:00am to 1:00pm. The council describes seasonal fruit and vegetables, artisan breads and pastries, fresh herbs, meats, dairy products and deli goods. It also says the market is plastic-free, so bring your own reusable bag. The council page notes closures on Christmas Day, New Year’s Day, Easter Saturday and Anzac Day when these fall on a market day.

Market day: The council lists every Saturday, and we could not find an entry fee stated on its page, so check the council page before you go.

Demaria’s Grocer — 261-271 Bridge Road, Richmond VIC 3121

Demaria’s Grocer lists its address on its own site as 261-271 Bridge Road. That site prints the hours as OPEN 7 DAYS. 7AM-6:30PM. It is a grocer with a deli counter, and we will not say more than that about what is on the shelves.

Cash or card: We could not find a published payment policy, so ask at the counter before you load up a basket.

Laikon Deli — 324 Bridge Road, Richmond VIC 3121

Laikon Deli’s site gives its address as 324 Bridge Road and lists Monday to Saturday 7am – 3pm, Sunday 8am – 2:30pm. AGFG tags it with Alfresco Dining, Breakfast, Child Friendly, Takeaway, Vegan Options and Vegetarian Options. The site also says its staff offer recommendations and tastings for anyone building a platter.

The move: Ask for a recommendation or a tasting, which the deli’s own site says its staff offer.

Are there other markets in Richmond?

Yarra City Council also lists Community Grocer pop-up markets in Richmond, but the listing we found gave no venue or time, so we have not included them. Gleadell Street Market is the only market we could confirm at two sources.

How we checked

We checked every place on this page against at least two independent sources on 4 October 2026: OpenStreetMap, council pages, the places’ own websites and the Australian Good Food Guide. We copied no menu prices from these places’ own pages, so this page prints none. Menus, prices and opening hours change, so check with the venue before you go.
