Try Riverland if you want to have a beer and maybe a bratwurzts on the Yarra, it is just below transport bar, the over sizeed pub at the back on FedSq, food is really bar there. Taxi is above transport with fantastic views, has a great take on modern asia cuisine not cheap. More

While I was opposed to the development of fed square, now it is there I guess I am used to it? A nice spot to chill and work out what to do next, get a meal or a drink and people watch... There is usually something going on there... More

Takes up so much room, but comes across like a jumble of buildings with little going on. It's not a true city square - unless there is something on, there are few people who bother going there. Too little seating, too little shade in Summer. Plus it seems to have nothing to do with Federation. Plus it blocks the view... More

Fed Square is Fed Square! I can't seen why it is an attraction. But i love going there either at night or on an afternoon on a sat or sunday with the Street performers. I usually just sit on the steps of a break and look at people going by. However, there is always something happening there. Performances, live music.... More

Its near flinders st, i always get off in flinders st when i go to city More

There are many good points to Fed Square. Lots of space to relax in the sun, people watch and catch whatever installation/exhibition/performance that is on for the day. More

We visit ther often and it's in a great place by the river surrounded by excellent eating places and bars, as well as all the shopping Melbourne has on offer. Highly recommended. The architecture is wonderful and the stone they bought down from the Kimberley to pave the square is so beautiful - the colour of the outback in Melbourne. More

This is really the heartbeat of Melbourne. Any visitor wanting to have a little rest or just soak up some atmosphere should have a seat here. Always things going on and a great place to welcome in the new year. More

Went to the cocktail bar on the top floor. Big bouncers on the entrance to keep the peace. Drinks a bit expensive but there was a live jazz/blues band. Bit of a mixed crowd not very young (jazz/blues probably doesn't appeal). Not too crowded. Food is just snack type dishes that you can share with friends. More
