A day in Prahran and Windsor
Chapel Street runs right through Prahran and Windsor, and it never really stops. Here is a day worth building around a game.
Chapel Street
Chapel Street runs four kilometres through Windsor, Prahran and South Yarra, packing more than 1,600 businesses into heritage shopfronts, fashion, food and nightlife that shift character as you move along it. The Prahran stretch around Commercial Road is the retail-heavy heart.
Prahran Market and Greville Street
The Prahran Market is one of Melbourne's three great markets, fresh produce, cheese and hot-food stalls (the toasties at Maker & Monger have a cult following). Just off Chapel, bohemian Greville Street keeps the vintage stores, record shops and hidden bars, plus the retro treasure-hunt of Chapel Street Bazaar.
Windsor and the Astor
Windsor, the grittier south end, runs live-music venues and neighbourhood pubs, and on the corner of Chapel and Dandenong Road stands the Astor Theatre, a 1936 art deco cinema screening classics, cult re-runs and new releases in gorgeous surrounds.
…then the escape room
The easy part: South Yarra is minutes up Chapel Street, with six rooms and live availability below.

Date night, with Chapel Street on either side of it
Chapel Street is one of Melbourne's best strips for eating and drinking, which makes an escape room a strong first act. Book an early-evening room, then head down Chapel for dinner, a bar or a film at the Astor. It beats another dinner-and-a-movie, and it gives you something to actually talk about afterwards.

Things to do in Melbourne this weekend →A big night out, together
Prahran and Windsor know how to handle a crowd. Bigger groups split across rooms at one venue and compete, then head out onto Chapel Street for the rest of the night. It is the best way to start a big one.
Escape rooms for large groups →A rainy-day plan that still feels like an outing
When the weather turns, an escape room is the weatherproof hour that still feels like a night out, minutes up Chapel Street and fully indoors, with the Astor or a Jam Factory film to follow.
