It's a vibrant spot, though it can get very crowded, especially in summer. Some find certain items, like olives, a bit expensive, but the overall quality and selection are highly appreciated.
"Cool village-style market with all the typical things you'd expect to find in a French open-air market. I would highly recommend the flower seller (good selection and affordable) and the olives store - great selection but a bit pricey.
The market gets crowded in the summer months so expect to compete with oldies wheeling their caddies, small dogs, kids, tourists and peeved locals."
