Gourmet products local specialties and wines Ambert

Philippe Compte and his wife Alexia have turned the place into a cavern of Ali Baba and a temple to gourmands. Pastries, macaroons, chocolates and ice creams are all revisited to discover new flavors. The pastries and confections are to die for, and Philippe was voted one of France's 100 best chocolatiers. And here's a tip: he works around the clock, so you can order your pastries from him in the morning and enjoy them at home in the afternoon! At lunchtime, the tearoom serves a variety of salads and snacks.

Since 2003, Ambert has been twinned with the Italian town of Gorgonzola. Philippe Seigneur, a passionate cheesemonger, has been making annual trips to Italy, bringing back typical cheeses, but also ham, gnocchi and real mozzarella, among other delicacies. The store presents a unique showcase, featuring the five PDO cheeses of Auvergne, as well as other regional cheeses and various locally produced delicacies, among the Italian products that Philippe will know how to present to you.

Ambert is a town in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. Visitors to the town can find a Carrefour Market supermarket for their shopping needs. Carrefour Market Ambert is located on Route Du Puy, Rd 906. In addition to shopping, Carrefour Market Ambert also offers various services such as drive-through, home delivery, car rental, a service station, a parcel collection point, an after-sales service, a laundromat, and much more. Visitors can also take advantage of promotions and special offers available in the store.

Come to Ambert on Thursday mornings for the market! A useful outing idea that will allow you to buy local products that you will hardly have the opportunity to find elsewhere. Quality products, guaranteed local production, exchanges with passionate craftsmen and producers: the Ambert market is an opportunity to make good and beautiful purchases, as well as crisp and friendly meetings. You will find cold meats, mountain honey, blueberries, fresh produce, clothes and of course the Ambert cheese.

The colors, shapes and flavors of Paul Jaillot's pastries leave no one indifferent. Originally from the Ardèche, he has conquered the finest palates. The recipes are finger-licking good. To take the time to taste them, it is possible to settle comfortably on the terrace. In summer, sweet and savory homemade ice creams are offered. The tea room is also open at noon. Salad bar and plates are on the menu. The drinks are local. As the holidays approach, homemade chocolates become the stars.

Created in 2015, this 70 m² store today brings together the fruits of the labor of some thirty producers from Livradois-Forez and the surrounding area. The variety of its stalls makes Le Local a veritable mini-market, with the advantage of bringing together local products for direct sale: cheeses and vegetables, eggs, dairy products, meat and fish, honeys, jams, spirits... Some of them are organically grown, and all follow a charter ensuring good practice and transparency. Exhibitions, workshops and tastings are organized on a regular basis.

In this bakery-pastry shop, you can enjoy the specialties of the house. Some orange tuiles, croquants du Forez or blueberry shortbread are a perfect accompaniment to afternoon tea or coffee. The same goes for the handmade chocolates. Of course, the consumption of these sweets is not limited to one moment of the day. Especially since the house offers an organic tea room and a complete catering service, both savory and sweet. She can also make a superb cake, decorated on the theme of your choice.
