Markets Bouches-du-Rhône - Alpilles

The markets of Provence, with their colorful accents, their flowery smells, and the gossip of the shopkeepers, are all clichés that attract thousands of tourists every year. The market of Eygalières is no exception. It is a very small market, but so typical that one can walk there by simple pleasure. Of course, it will be the occasion to fill up with fruits and vegetables of season proposed by the local producers. You can also find clothes, flowers and lots of gourmet ideas.

Le Petit Futé met this family on a beautiful Provencal morning at the Egalyères market. A meeting with a "golden" family! The stall is superb, richly stocked with fresh, tasty fish and other seafood. As for the smile, it's a sunny one. Lolo offers Mediterranean fish fresh from the famous Grau-du-Roi fish auction. The salmon-cabillaud brochettes are delicious. Shellfish platter at Christmas, tuna in summer, terrines, etc. We recommend this indispensable "tour"!

If one adjective had to define Lolo, it would be "generosity"! Indeed, Lolo's invaluable advice and passion will delight your taste buds. He's always willing to share his passion with you, and his stall is sure to delight all your senses... All fresh, mouth-watering Mediterranean fish, including a spectacular Mediterranean red tuna. His end-of-year platters are also worth a detour! You'll find Lolo at all the markets in Provence, especially the one in Eygalières every Friday morning on rue de la République.

Reserved for professionals, this typical market is held on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, on the square in front of the town hall. It opens its doors to individuals after the end of the transactions between producers (from 6pm in summer). This is an opportunity to buy unsold produce and to stock up on tomatoes, zucchini, melons, etc. in quantity (everything is sold by the box). A real good plan, as long as you don't arrive too late because, as always, the good deals go quickly. An excellent idea to buy at low prices.
