La Crèmerie du Faubourg

This gourmet shop specializes on artisan local cheeses. Made from sheep's and cow's milk, creamy and of hard consistency, with wildflowers from the Alps or even Italian truffles - the variety of cheeses is truly impressive. Sells a variety of unique jams and marmalade.

Shopping

Rue de la Loge is Montpellier's ultimate High Street, and the post-modern Polygone galleria just east of Place de la Comédie is three-storey open-air mall full of everything from designer fashions to deli foods. Halles Laissac (currently under reconstruction) and Halles Castellane are two good covered food markets next to each other on rue Anatole France by Place Jean Jaurés. Obligatory purchases include cheese, olives, and regional wines.
