Plus appréciés Shopping à Romainmôtier

This men’s clothing and accessories boutique store carries brands from all over the world, though it shows a slight favoritism for those from France, Sweden, and Japan. The store is small, but packed with elegant clothing that adheres to its governing philosophy of “sober originality,” which refers to the style of a city gentleman. If you ask the owner, Mr. Alain himself, he will carefully describe each item in his store, and why he has chosen to sell it. An inspired collection of rucksacks and backpacks from local designers make a visit to Mr. Alain worthwhile.

This lovely small street runs through part of central Lausanne, with Rue de La Paix on the east and Place Saint-François on the west. One of the city’s premier high-end shopping locations, the street is bustling with cafes, shops, alleyways, charming buildings, and cobblestones. It’s a pleasure to walk through and a nice place to rub elbows with locals. Many stores on this street, which is one of the oldest in the city, sell goods from international luxury brands.

Walking into Chocolatier Blondel is a bit like walking into chocolate heaven. The modest store on the bustling Rue de Bourg is flanked by bigger, noisier stores, yet it may be one of the hidden gems in the neighborhood. The shelves of the store are lined with trays upon trays of chocolate treats of various shapes and sizes. These include dark, milk, and white chocolate mixed with nuts, teas, herbs, and dried fruits. The chocolate may be purchased in gift boxes, slabs, or by the pound.

Launched in 1987, Maniak is a cavernous clothing store that carries mostly trendy workwear and costumes and costume accessories. There’s an alternative rock hipster vibe to the place, and it’s just as likely to stock work wear as it is to carry band t–shirts and leather jackets. Think Carhartt and Schott jackets, Dickie’s jeans and shirts, and Freitag shoulder bags. Several rooms are dedicated to costumes, where visitors can find masks, feather boas, faux leather, angels wings, and pretty much anything one would want to create any kind of costume.

La Place Saint François est le centre de Lausanne, même si elle n'en a pas l'air. Vous y trouverez les cafés typiques et à la mode (le Café Romand par exemple), une grande église (Saint-François), des artistes de rue, des étudiants qui se baladent et beaucoup d'aller et venue. Dans chaque ville il y a un endroit où tout le monde passe et à Lausanne, c'est la place Saint François. Vous y passerez pour aller dans la rue de Bourg, avec ses magasins chics ou bien pour aller à la Place de la Palud ou de la Riponne, avec tous ses musées. Un endroit à voir.

Manor (La Placette) est l'un des supermarchés du centre ville. On y trouve de tout, des habits aux fournitures de bureau et des disques à l'électroménager. Une librairie généraliste dépend de l'ensemble. Au sous-sol, un supermarché bien fourni propose des produits frais (poissons, viandes, légumes) et des produits de consommation courante. Il existe également un bureau Ticket Corner qui vend les billets pour divers spectacles dans toute la Suisse.
