What you’ll find

What La Chocolaterie Chartres is known for

On Place Marceau, this confiserie makes the Mentchikoff, the meringue-and-praline sweet created in Chartres in 1893, alongside macarons, chocolates and cathedral-shaped gift boxes. Open daily, it remains a keeper of the city's signature confectionery.
