Gourmet products local specialties and wines La Chapelle-Sur-Erdre

The Ferme Fruitière de la Hautière, in La Chapelle-sur-Erdre, with its 35 hectares of crops and varieties selected for their gustatory qualities, is THE ideal destination to fill up on vitamins and fruit delicacies. In the completely renovated shop, you will find fruit and vegetables grown on site, but also products processed from local production by Alexandre, Benoît and their team. Many jams, compotes, sorbets, coulis and delicious fruit juices including the new strawberry nectars and sparkling fruit juices (strawberry apple, raspberry apple, lemon apple). Among the three succulent varieties of strawberries that have been created at the farm, the Capella is always a delight for gourmets. Let's not forget the soups whose benefits are no longer to be proven. The farm also sells fresh products from small local producers (meat, cheese, yoghurts, butter) and, in partnership with a wine grower, some vintages of the Loire Valley. You can find spreads from Gourmandises de Ludo, honey from Nicolas Roux, spices and teas from Épices à ma guise, herbal teas from Mathilde Beaudoin, beef directly from Jean-Pierre Martin, foie gras from the Mitteault family (Vienne)... The farm also offers fruit compositions and fruit or vegetable baskets on order, as well as gift baskets. Offering excellent products directly from the farm is an idea to share in any circumstance. Note the Hesperides garden open from May to the end of September, ideal for a stroll! Nature at a stone's throw from Nantes.

To encourage short circuits and direct sales, visit La Ferme du Limeur! There, you can buy chickens and guinea fowl ready for roasting, and of course eggs. You'll also find carrots, cucumbers, eggplants, cabbages, salads and more. Everything here is organically grown. The store also offers a wide range of other farm products, including organic dairy products. These include cheeses from farms such as Isle, Coquelicots and Blanchetière. You'll also find organic honey from Virgile Mazery in Plessé. As for children, they'll be delighted by the small farm zoo with its dwarf pigs, sheep and chickens.

There are some places where you just want to come back again and again! Head for La Chapelle-sur-Erdre, in the "Erdre active" business park, where this beautiful building with its black "Philmore" frontage houses several activities! We're at a craft brewer's, with a smiling welcome from Bérenger and Médina! Here, you can observe the production process before tasting Philmore's delicious organic beers! Enjoy blondes such as Jazz, citrus Britpop, Ambrée Cumbia, Blanche Klezmer, Afrobeat ginger hibiscus, or Brune Blues! Beers with a nod to music, like the regular concerts that take place here! Seasonal beers too, with blond Punk, fruity blackcurrant Soul, amber and thyme New Orleans, Celtic, Raga, IPA, Reggae and Christmas beers. The venue, which is also a beer bar, is also a great place for entertainment, with themed evenings (sports broadcasts, board games, karaoke) and concerts! What's more, Philmore also offers beers from brewer UMAMI, with Thibaut's unique creations and refined tastes using a "pre-fermentation" method for some of the ingredients in his beers. Tasting available! Last but not least, Thibault is also a chef: "beer pairing" dishes are planned for the near future. Come and see for yourself!

Frédéric Brangeon defines himself as a craftsman of character and passion, having inherited his love of the artisan bakery from an early age. This baker's son, who became a master baker, perpetuates a family history in which Aurélie, his wife, and his entire team work with him to delight us. Since 2009, at his two establishments in La Chapelle-sur-Erdre (in the town center and in the Erdre Active Zone), Frédéric Brangeon has been selecting quality products to delight our taste buds. Among the ingredients, good and local: salt from Maison Charteau in Saint-Molf, local and traditional French Label Rouge flour from the Bourseau family flour mill in Nozay, fruit and vegetables mainly from the Hautière and Panetière family farms in La Chapelle-sur-Erdre. Here you'll find a wide variety of special breads, such as pain de campagne (organic wheat flour, organic rye flour), or the delicious fig and apricot bread made in 12 hours, like the bûcheron (Label rouge traditional flour, rye, sunflower seeds, linseed, sesame); but also viennoiseries: croissants, pains au chocolat, and other raisin breads,... not forgetting home-made pastries: paris-brest (choux pastry, almond crunch, praline cream, praline sauce), raspberry macaroon (macaroon shell, light vanilla cream, fresh raspberries), or the traditional gâteau nantais (soft almond cookie flavored with rum, royal rum ice cream), as well as sweet treats: chocolate bars, macaroon boxes, spreads, mendiants for parties... For lunchtime, the bakery-patisserie offers a wide range of tasty sandwiches, wraps, quiches, home-made pizzas and salads. And for aperitifs, you'll love the surprise breads, fougasses, préfous and other savoury reductions.
