The Market - Wednesdays and Saturdays. The main shopping streets are around Rue Adolphe Thiers, in the New Town, 5 blocks east of the harbour. There is one large supermarket in the town (a Carrefour) on the Station Road. Boulogne has two hypermarkets, an Auchan in the St Martin suburb (at the Boulogne end of the N41, Junction 31 of the A16), and, on the other side of town, an E.Leclerc in the Outreau suburb. Both are surrounded by other large out of town style shops. The largest shopping centre in the area, the Cite D'Europe at the Channel Tunnel, is 20 minutes drive away.
Most of the restaurants are in and around the Place Dalton in the New Town, though there are a few up in the Old Town as well.
There are many excellent bars in both the Old and New Towns.
There's a small Ibis in the City Centre, and most of the rest of the hotels are small privately owned establishments out towards the beach.
There is also a youth hostel (auberge de jeunesse) opposite the main station (Gare de Boulogne), which is open year round and offers accommodation for around €16.
Just outside of town is the Column of the Grande Armée, a park where a (somewhat presumptive) monument commemorates Napeleon's successful invasion of England.
