Halles Jacques Cœur feeds Antigone in Montpellier with 22 stalls, Tarbouriech oysters and lunch counters trading under the esplanade's neoclassical flats.
Tip: The Tarbouriech stand serves the lagoon's famous pink oysters without the drive to Marseillan; weekday lunch is calmest.
Halles des 4 Saisons serves the Mosson side of Montpellier, 33 stalls of halal and traditional butchers, spices and produce priced for the quarter.
Tip: Mornings only; come hungry and pair the shop with the Tuesday, Friday or Saturday clothing market outside.
The Marché des Arceaux lines Montpellier's Saint-Clément aqueduct on Tuesday and Saturday, up to 80 producers selling organic vegetables, cheese and flowers.
Tip: This is where the city's chefs shop; arrive by 09:00 on Saturday before the best producer stalls sell through.
The Marché Paysan d'Antigone brings Hérault farmers into Montpellier on Sunday mornings, a producers' association trading on Place du Nombre d'Or since 1991.
Tip: Producers only, no resellers: oyster farmers, breeders and winemakers sell their own goods, so ask about the farm.
The Marché du Lez stacks food trucks, restaurants, a brocante and craft studios along Avenue Raymond Dugrand in Montpellier, the city's weekend food village.
Tip: Come for the street-food village at lunch, stay for Muchacha and the Halles du Lez counters after dark.
The Marché des Beaux-Arts is the small daily food market on its namesake square in Montpellier, a handful of stalls anchoring the village-like quarter.
Tip: Pair a morning shop with a coffee on the square; the quarter's bakeries and bistros sit within two streets.
