Excalibur

A must-do for game lovers, this not-so-hidden gem of a shop is a paradise for anyone who enjoys medieval paraphernalia (such as toys and full-blown costumes). It contains various curiosities, as well as a whole assortment of games - from board games to role plays and even drinking games.

Shopping

Rue de la Loge is Montpellier's ultimate High Street, and the post-modern Polygone galleria just east of Place de la Comédie is three-storey open-air mall full of everything from designer fashions to deli foods. Halles Laissac (currently under reconstruction) and Halles Castellane are two good covered food markets next to each other on rue Anatole France by Place Jean Jaurés. Obligatory purchases include cheese, olives, and regional wines.
