It is around the love of cooking, gastronomy and also the aesthetics surrounding the art of the table, which met Isabelle and Mathieu. Fresh and seasonal products, classic classics and original creations, HMC Caterer offers a collection of delicacies, dishes, desserts and buffets. For professionals and individuals, whether for an intimate event or a public event, chefs will adjust their cuisine according to your desires and needs.

Blandine and Laurent Cathala know how to pamper the gourmets in all of us. In their workshop-boutique, our senses are on the alert. In the windows, treasures to savor. Colorful macaroons in original flavors (lavender-honey or angelica), tempting pastries with chocolate, fruit... and why not both? Here, gourmandise is made up of small and large pleasures that change with the seasons. Nothing is off-limits, not even ice creams, chocolate bars and bonbons with grand cru, infused ganaches and pralines.

At the Rosette des Prés, quality is the main priority. The products offered by Monsieur Chouc come from the Fenioux pig farm: the animals are reared in the open air, in full compliance with the Bleu Blanc Coeur Label specifications, with pigs fed on cereals, vegetable proteins and linseed which promote the intake of omega 3. The pork meats are made in the traditional way, in the respect of the cooking of the pig of yesteryear (stewed). Seven sales outlets are available under the L'heure du marché brand.

The Huvelin family business has been shining with its creations since 1963. A total of 59 types of chocolate bonbons, bouchées, tablettes, "carrés origines", pralines, ganaches and a hint of Pamplie salted butter, all prepared by hand. The establishment also works with the emblematic angelica, in its candied version, in jams, compotes and liqueurs obtained by maceration. What can I say? Oh yes, it's a Niort landmark: a visit is a must!

This Intermarché is a human-sized supermarket and is large enough to shop for a whole week. Prices are low and there is plenty of time for promotions on many items. The supermarket includes hardware shelves, small crockery, clothes, Cds and toys. Some items are available only during their season of use (such as summer chairs in summer, not worth searching for them in winter).

At Thonnard, we have specialized for ages in the cultivation and processing of angelica. The liqueur herb, a true specialty of Niort, is enjoyed in syrup, jam, candied fruit or cream. The house chocolates with angelica are very famous. The institution opens the doors of its production site in Niort (and its store) to individuals and groups, visits followed by a tasting session. We advise you to try it at least once!

The store offers a wide selection of beers, wines, whiskies and rums, with over 1,000 references available. Customers can make their purchases in-store or choose the in-store collection option. The store also offers a number of services, such as beer taps for private events, advice on food and wine pairing, gift vouchers and tasting workshops. For wine and spirits lovers, V and B Niort is a must-visit during your stay in Niort.
