The Port is famous for its seafood, and the Boulogne harbour is home to a bustling fish market where you can find the freshest catches of the day. From crab and lobster to mackerel and sole, the variety of seafood on offer is truly impressive.
Our favorite street in the old town is Bd du Prince Albert. Which is a cobbled street with Bars and Restaurants in the middle of the old town.
One of the must-visit destinations for foodies is the Rue de Lille, a street lined with artisanal food shops, bakeries, and cafes. Here you can find the famous Boulogne chocolate, which is a unique blend of milk and dark chocolate that is exclusive to the region.
If you are a cheese lover, you cannot leave Boulogne without trying the local Maroilles cheese. This cheese is made from cow's milk and has a strong and pungent aroma that may be overwhelming at first, but its rich and creamy texture will make you fall in love with it.
Finally, no trip to Boulogne would be complete without trying the local beer, La Choulette. This beer is brewed using traditional methods and has a unique flavor that is both sweet and bitter at the same time.
One of the most popular traditional dishes of Boulogne is the 'potjevleesch', a cold dish made of three different types of meat and is served with pickles and bread. It's a must-try dish for anyone visiting the area for the first time, and it's best enjoyed in a traditional restaurant.
There are many traditional restaurants in Boulogne that offer a wide range of regional dishes. 'La Matelote', located in the old town, is renowned for its seafood dishes, which are cooked with the freshest fish from the nearby coast. 'Le Grillardin' offers a more rustic dining experience with its traditional French cuisine and charming ambiance.
For those who are looking for a more casual dining experience, 'La Frite à Gogo' is a great choice. This restaurant is famous for its fries and offers a variety of traditional sauces to accompany them. When visiting Boulogne, make sure to try some of the traditional dishes and visit at least one of these restaurants to experience the local cuisine. Your taste buds will thank you for it!
One of the best things about touring Boulogne is that you get to indulge in the local culinary delights.
