Fresh fruits, fresh vegetables outside, and inside there are too many stores to list that sell breads, cakes, cheeses ( I have never seen so much cheese in my life!!), meats of all kinds, beef, pork, lamb, fish, ..... and cooked food!!! No need to restaurants deliveries, there is everything here if you don't want to cook. But I am just a tourist.....

This market has an amazing selection of foods. They have meats, pastries, desserts, seafood,…read morefruit/veg - whatever the heart desires. Americans will be shocked by the diversity of meat there (they have duck heads/rabbit/horse meat). We recommend taking a food tour like Taste of Toulouse to fully take in the best foods they have to offer! The staff are all very friendly and accommodating. If you want to eat at the restaurants upstairs, make sure you arrive early (~11:45 am) so you can get an outside seat. Bonne dégustation :)

My husband and I stopped here for a quick bite after a trip to the Préfecture. What a delightful…read morefind. As is usually the case here in France, there was a wonderful assortment of the usual pastries and bread - baguettes, croissants, eclairs, etc. Hubby really enjoyed his eclair. However, what makes this a standout are the macarons. There have about a dozen different types. We bought chocolate, pistachio, raspberry, creme brûlée, and cassis. All were well-made - crunchy on the outside but soft on the inside. My favorites are cassis (simultaneously tart and sweet) and the creme brûlée, which was filled with a yummy buttercream. I am thankful that this is not near my house. I would put on 10 pounds in a week scarfing these down. A must visit in Toulouse.

Macaroons are yummy. Hard not to over buy. Seemed pricey but not sure if that's the market rate.read more

My personal favorite was the Roucher Blanc. It is the chocolate to dream about. Soft creamy milk chocolate center. Hardened white chocolate and almond shell. Heaven on earth. No English required. The staff was so friendly my deficiency in French was never a problem. Just choose and point. All of the candies are made on premises each morning. When in Toulouse make a point to seek out this quaint chocolatier. You will not be disappointed.
