Shopping in Bunbury

Bunbury covers the usual regional-city shopping — two large centres, a walkable CBD, and the smaller strips in Australind and Eaton — plus the things people actually come to the South West for: cellar doors, galleries and weekend markets.

Victoria Street and the city centre

Victoria Street is the place to wander: cafes, a few independent shops, the older pubs and a growing amount of street art. It is also where you will spend an afternoon if you are staying on the waterfront and do not want to get back in the car. Combine it with coffee and the arts and culture trail.

The shopping centres

Parks Shopping Centre on Sandridge Road is the everyday centre on the way into town — supermarket, discount department store, specialty shops and plenty of parking.

Bunbury Forum, also on Sandridge Road, is the larger enclosed centre: a full supermarket, a discount department store and a long list of specialty retailers. Free parking.

Bunbury Centrepoint on Blair Street is the CBD centre — useful if you are already in town and need a supermarket, a bank or a pharmacy without driving out to the highway.

Markets and local produce

Weekend growers' and craft markets rotate around Bunbury and the nearby towns. Dates change, so check the What's On page and the City of Bunbury listings before you plan a morning around them. For wine, cheese and cellar-door food, drive 25 minutes into the Ferguson Valley or browse wineries near Bunbury.

Looking for a gift that is not a keyring? The galleries and the waterfront shops are a better bet than the centres. Then eat: the food and wine guide is next door.
