Rundle Mall (btw. King William and Pulteney sts.) is Adelaide’s main shopping street. This pedestrian-only thoroughfare is home to the big names in fashion, but you’ll also find stores along King William Road at Hyde Park; Glen Osmond Road at Eastwood is the place to go for designer seconds and clearance shops.

Adelaide’s Central Markets, behind the Adelaide Hilton Hotel between Gouger and Grote streets, make up the largest produce market in the Southern Hemisphere. They’re a good place to shop for vegetables, fruit, meat, fish, and the like, although the markets are worth popping into even if you’re not looking for picnic fixings. Held in a warehouselike structure, they are open Tuesday from 7am to 5:30pm, Thursday from 9am to 5:30pm, Friday from 7am to 9pm, and Saturday from 7am to 3pm. Some stalls open on Wednesdays.

The renowned Jam Factory Craft and Design Centre, 19 Morphett St., sells an excellent range of locally made ceramics, jewelry, glass, furniture, and metal items. You can also watch the craftspeople at work here.
