OSBORNE VILLAGE
Boho and artsy meet kitsch and cool in the creative community of Osborne Village. Early 1900s architecture stands alongside modern high-rises in Winnipeg's most densely populated neighborhood, housing a mix of young and old, hip and urban. With a spirit born out of the 60's, The Village is home to an incredible variety of shops, restaurants and galleries - all concentrated within two city blocks. Here you'll find specialty cookware, unique jewellery, fun and funky clothing, sushi supplies, global gifts and more.

Osborne Street South is the heart of Riverview/Lord Roberts, one of Winnipeg's oldest neighborhoods. Among its 80 businesses are stores featuring used, rare and out of print books, collectibles, antiques and even a refurbished movie theatre/cafe. Several shops feature hand-made pottery, unique gift items and lifestyle enhancements, including fine shoes. Over 15 restaurants serve Italian, Thai, Chinese, fast food, ice cream and an award-winning restaurant highlighting
regional fare.
