Victoria’s Basement

Newtown & the Inner West


This huge warehouse (on the 1st floor, not in the basement) is packed to overflowing with high-quality kitchen and tableware at bargain-basement prices (wedding and house-warming gifts aplenty). Despite a ban on shopping-tour buses it’s always frantic on weekends. The full-price branch is in the QVB.
