Visited here whilst on a long weekend in Bordeaux and although it was a lovely market it wasn't anything out of the ordinary. Smaller than we expected and lots of the stalls were closed.

We took a stroll down to Marches des Capucins after watching the Rick Stein episode in Bordeaux!

Last day in Bordeaux we decided to have 'le petit dejeuner' in the market before taking the TGV train. Authentic experience. The locals buy here so that's always a good sign. We decided to have la formule petit dejeuner consisted of coffee , croissants, toast with jams and fresh orange juice. Friendly nice bilingual staff in the cafe. We also got some lovely kalamata olives and bananas. Recommended.…
