Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for Graz right now.
Graz is a smart, stylish city with great shopping. In the streets surrounding Hauptplatz and Herrengasse you'll find top designer boutiques and specialty shops. Be on the lookout for traditional skirts, trousers, jackets, and coats of gray and dark-green loden wool; dirndls; modern sportswear and ski equipment; handwoven garments; and objects of wrought iron. Take time to wander around the cobblestone streets of the Altstadt near the cathedral, where you'll come across several little specialty shops selling exotic coffees, wine, and cheese.

For a wide selection of wine and cheese, as well as hard-to-find Styrian cheese varieties, go to Käse-Nussbaumer, near the Hauptplatz.
This three-story bookstore is at the end of Graz's main street, Herrengasse, near Jakominiplatz. Moser bustles with people buying postcards, CDs, children's books in multiple languages, and quirky gifts (though not from local dealers). There is a large selection of English fiction and nonfiction on the ground floor, as well as cookbooks with Austrian cuisine written in English. There is a basic no-frills coffee shop on the top floor, where shoppers can have a snack and peruse books before purchasing them.
