A visit to the food market

Rennes has the second largest food market in France outside Paris. The Marche des Lices takes place every Saturday morning and my advice is get there as early as you can so that you can park up (underneath the complex) and get to see the vast array of food products on offer. The market which is over four hundred years old opens at 7.30am and closes for lunch at 1 o'clock. Students attending our cooking school will also visit the food market at Dinan on Thursday morning (on route to Le Mont St Michel) but we do recommend that you make time on your trip to visit this extraordinary market on one Saturday morning during your visit. More information here: Marche des Lices.
