Narbonne, market restaurants. France. Much more than a market, the Narbonne Halles are one of the nerve centres of the city. Built in 1901, this vast market hall is still active and more animated than ever before. Its metal framework shelters nearly seventy food businesses: charcutiers, butchers, pastry-makers, bars, greengrocers, and restaurants, including the storied "Chez Bébelle" … This unique gathering place is completely a part of local culture. In the aisles between the stalls, they say that the market has a soul. A warm, bustling spirit. And 2,800 square metres of enticing fragrances – spices, olives, fresh vegetables, sausage, even – at the right moment, bien sûr –pastis. For the people of Narbonne come to Les Halles to do their marketing, of course, but also to stroll and get together with friends. A delightful place, open 365 days a yearNarbonne, Occitan: Narbona, Latin: Narbo is a commune in southern France in the Languedoc-Roussillon region. It lies 849 km from Paris in the Aude department, of which it is a sub-prefecture. Once a prosperous port, and a major city in Roman times, it is now located about 15 km from the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. It is marginally the largest commune in Aude, although the prefecture is the slightly smaller commune of Carcassonne.
