"Skip Saint Malo and head here for the market (open 2 days a week).
Probably the best fish selection of any nearby market and excellent butchers, cheese and fresh vegetables on offer. The atmosphere is traditional with not a hint of hipster bullshit. Thoroughly pleasant shopping experience for anyone who loves food."

"Lovely little market hall. It`s a little out of the old city but still worth a visit since it`s much less touristy. The produce is fresh and mainly local. Vendors are helpful and very nice and welcoming."
