MARCHÉ DES HALLES
Read moreThis Wednesday and Saturday morning market is one of the oldest in Tours! There is always a crowd in its alleys to stock up on fruits, vegetables, eggs, fresh bread and cheeses. The aisles are rather small and you have to stroll through them with patience, but this adds to the charm of the market. It is also an opportunity to take the time to contemplate the stalls in the smallest details and to greet the producers, always open to exchanges about cooking or other topics! A friendly, gourmet stroll with an audience of all ages.
MARCHÉ RABELAIS
Read moreA beautiful market that dates back to 1933! Quality and freshness are the order of the day. We prefer it to the neighbouring supermarket for Sunday meals. In a smiling and friendly atmosphere, you can enjoy the smell of fruits, vegetables, Indian and Japanese recipes, but also the lively atmosphere of the place. In winter, one rushes back home to cook and in summer, why not go and sit in the neighbouring Prébendes garden to taste what one has just bought? A nice stop for the inhabitants of the neighbourhood!
MARCHÉ HEURTELOUP
Read moreThis small city centre market is located a few steps from the tourist office. You can forget for a few moments the hubbub of the traffic, between buses and cars that join or leave the city center, to concentrate on the stalls and the products offered. The shops are few and far between, but they will be happy to help you choose what you can eat throughout the week. They offer the essentials for good food: fruit and vegetables, butchery, cheese, and even organic bread.
MARCHÉ VELPEAU
Read moreProbably the biggest market in Touraine! On Thursdays there are a little less merchants and a reasonable number of people, but on Sundays it's a different matter: hundreds of onlookers and local residents come to do their food shopping there. There are also some clothes and various objects. It is not uncommon to see a street musician settling here. A cheerful mix of people. Going to the Velpeau market on Sunday mornings, alone or with the family, is a must in the life of Touraine.
