What to Buy and Browse in Bordeaux

Bordeaux shopping is most rewarding when it follows a local specialty: try a canelé, browse the small streets of Saint-Pierre, or explore the produce and seafood at Marché des Capucins.

Why go

These stops offer different ways to take a piece of Bordeaux home. A canelé is a small custard-like pastry with a crisp exterior and soft centre; Saint-Pierre's narrow streets invite browsing for independent makers, while the Capucins market puts regional food shopping in one hall. Wine shops around Place Tourny offer another Bordeaux-specific search.

Useful to know

  • Compare canelés by their crisp outside and tender centre, rather than relying on a particular shop name.
  • Browse Rue des Bahutiers for small shops in Saint-Pierre; use Marché des Capucins for market produce and seafood.
  • Check current market trading times before making Marché des Capucins the focus of a shopping trip.
