Vieux Marché de La Rochelle

Must visit in La Rochelle! Great choice of fresh seafood, cheese and meat, as well as local farmers products.

Amazing and a must visit when you are in La Rochelle so much variety of fresh produce Wonderful

The market hall is apparently not large enough. A large part of the market extends around the hall into the side streets, giving the market its special experience.

Great Place to buy local produced Fresh Vegetables, Raw meat, cheese, fresh Oysters, seafood, cooked food, ham & some ready to eat food too All items sold in very clean environment On Wednesday there are open market around here and more artisan breads, cakes, pastries as well as dried fruits are sold here

I adore this place. With produce of the best quality, it's a food-lover's dream. As well as buying to cook and eat later, you can stop for oysters or eat at one of the many superb restaurants found in the market area.

What a delight to be offered so much choice and to talk about the products with the persons minding their stalls Lots of nice place to eat around and great value oysters to have just outside

As usual with France, this is a fabulous market which is used pretty much continually; I was in town over the weekend and stalls inside and out were open both days selling some amazing food; the bakery stalls outside were both top drawer, and the cheese range inside was similarly great (tomme with 7 flowers was one of the best cheeses I've ever had). It really shows up the UK when this is how food is bought, at a local market not (big generalisation) at a supermarket; I didn't see a decent size supermaket in the centre so guessing there are huge ones on the outskirts, but still.. this market sold amazing food and was rammed with people, main;y locals, every time I visited. It's in a nice part of the town too, with many old buildings lining the square the market is on, and lots of cafes too! If you're in town get yourself here and indulge in some amazing local food, and see what we're missing!

Excellent market in a central location. It is indoor and then spills onto the street outside Great selection of meats cheeses fish,oysters, mussels bread, everything you need in one place.
