In store at 369 Chapel Street
The shop is on the South Yarra end of Chapel Street, close to the Commercial Road corner and Prahran Market. Being right on Chapel Street, it is easy to duck in while you are out shopping or on the way home.
Ways to make the most of a visit:
- Line up two or three proteins and compare protein per 100 g, not only per scoop, since scoop sizes vary between brands.
- Check caffeine per serve on pre-workouts before you pick one, and ask about stim-free choices if you train in the evening.
- Ask the team to work out price per serve across tub sizes and flavours with you.
- Supps247 members can show a listed competitor's full price on the identical product and ask about our member price match.
Trading times, phone and transport tips are on the store page linked at the end, and our store opening post has a little history.

Where South Yarra trains
Five public spots around South Yarra, with a quick supplement note for each.
The Tan
The Tan is a 3.8 km loop around Kings Domain and the Royal Botanic Gardens, mostly on gravel, with distance markers every 250 m and water fountains along the way, according to Running Calendar. It is mostly flat apart from one notable climb on Anderson Street.
Supplement note: an easy lap needs nothing beyond water. For reps or a time trial, carbohydrate from a normal meal a couple of hours before matters more than any powder.
Albert parkrun
Albert parkrun is a free, weekly 5 km timed run held every Saturday morning at Albert Park. Register online before your first one.
Supplement note: after a Saturday 5 km, breakfast with some protein is usually enough. A ready-to-drink shake helps if you are heading straight out for the day.
Prahran Aquatic Centre
The City of Stonnington's Prahran Aquatic Centre at 41 Essex Street, Prahran, has a 50 m outdoor pool plus a spa, sauna and steam room. The council says it reopened in November 2023 after a refurbishment of the pools, concourse and change rooms.
Supplement note: swimmers still lose fluid through sweat, especially in summer sun, so keep a drink bottle by the pool. After squad sessions, aim for a meal or shake with both protein and carbohydrate.
Fawkner Park
Fawkner Park is a City of Melbourne park in South Yarra of about 41 hectares, with sports grounds used for cricket, soccer, Australian rules football, rugby and softball, plus tennis courts.
Supplement note: for team training, creatine monohydrate is one of the most researched options for repeated sprints in adults, and protein helps you reach your daily target when meals are rushed. Players under 18 should stick with food and see a GP first.
Main Yarra Trail from Como Park
Stonnington's Walk the Yarra route starts at Como Park and follows the Main Yarra Trail towards the city. The short loop walks about 20 minutes along the trail to Punt Road before you turn back.
Supplement note: walkers rarely need more than water. Riders heading further along the river on hot days can add an electrolyte drink and a snack.
What South Yarra shoppers ask for
Questions on Chapel Street often come down to four things:
- Whey protein isolate for a lighter, lower lactose shake. Compare options in our whey protein isolate guide.
- Pre-workout, and how much caffeine is sensible. Our pre-workout guide breaks down the labels.
- Electrolytes for summer runs and long rides. See the electrolytes guide.
- Creatine and everyday vitamins. Creatine monohydrate is the form most people start with, and a GP or pharmacist can tell you whether you need a vitamin at all.
Food comes first, and a supplement should fill a gap rather than replace a meal. If you are under 18, pregnant, on medication or managing a medical condition, talk to a GP or pharmacist before you start.
South Yarra FAQs
Where can I buy creatine in South Yarra?
Supps247 Chapel Street at 369 Chapel Street, South Yarra, stocks creatine alongside protein powder, pre-workout and vitamins. Most people only need plain creatine monohydrate, and the team can show you how scoop sizes differ between tubs. You can also order creatine online for delivery or for collection from the Chapel Street store.
Can I order online and pick up on Chapel Street?
Yes. Choose Supps247 Chapel Street as your pickup store at checkout, and orders are usually ready within 24 hours. Check stock on the product page first if you need a particular flavour or size. Collecting is handy if you would rather not carry a big tub around while you shop, or if you are passing on the way home from training.
Is there a supplement store near Toorak or Prahran?
Yes. Supps247 Chapel Street is in South Yarra, close to Prahran and Toorak, and it is also within reach of Windsor, Armadale and Richmond. If another part of Melbourne suits you better, the Supps247 store locator lists all of our stores. Wherever you are, you can also order online and have it delivered.
Do you deliver to South Yarra 3141?
Yes. We deliver to South Yarra 3141 and the rest of Australia, usually in 2 to 8 business days. Shipping is free on orders of $99.99 or more, and Afterpay is available online. Use an address where someone can receive the parcel, such as a workplace, if no one is home during the day.
Should I take pre-workout before a run on the Tan?
You do not need it. Most people run the Tan well on a normal meal and water. If you like caffeine before a hard session, a coffee or a half serve of pre-workout is plenty, and count it towards your daily caffeine. Skip it close to bedtime, and check with a GP first if you are pregnant, take medication or have a heart condition.
