Paris: Gourmet Food & Wine
Share
Paris turns food shopping into an art. This guide covers where to buy gourmet groceries, chocolate, cheese and wine, from grand department-store food halls to a heritage wine merchant.

La Grande Épicerie de Paris
The vast food hall beside Le Bon Marché stocks fine groceries, wine, cheese and pastry.
Fauchon
A historic gourmet house on Place de la Madeleine, known for tea, chocolate and delicacies.
Legrand Filles et Fils
A historic wine merchant inside the covered Galerie Vivienne, part shop and part tasting bar.
Galeries Lafayette Le Gourmet
The department store's dedicated food hall gathers French specialities across one floor.
For breadth under one roof, La Grande Epicerie leads. For a heritage gift or a wine to carry home, Fauchon and Legrand are the picks.
- Check customs rules before carrying cheese or meat home.
- Wine over the duty-free allowance may be taxed at your destination.
- Ask for vacuum-sealing on cheese for travel where offered.
- Non-EU visitors can claim VAT refunds above the threshold.
