*Sigh*. I am not a fan of Marche presqu'ile, but feel it is a necessary evil to living in the 1er…read more I'll admit that I am new to the supermarchés here, but I don't believe this place is much cheaper than Monoprix or the far superior and local open air marches like Marché Saint-Antoine Célestins. If you stick to the generic Leader Price items, sure, there are quality bargains--but those are outnumbered by luxury gourmet products, novelties and expensive bio meals. Yes, it is clean, and the produce--most of which is overpriced and imported--is displayed like a jewelry store, but there is no logic to the layout. And forget about coming during the after work 'rush hour' pre dinner, when sometimes it is so busy that there are no shopping baskets at the door! You will get pushed aside in a claustrophobic grocery trample by hungry shoppers! What I do like about this store is the nice selection of wine and the newly expanded 'international' grocery section, which is right by la caisse, so it seems funnily more like an 'expat impulse buy' section for those hankering for ramen, burritos, or tiny jars of 3 euro peanut butter. Also, les caissier(e)s are generally friendly despite what must be usually long days! If you can make the trip to Le Marche des Producteurs, or groceries outside of the 1er, I think that is your best bet--and in fact, I would love any recommendations!

The prices are reasonable and you can create your own 4 course prix fix for under 15 Euro in your own apartment and many excellent local wine choices....oui! oui! Marche presqu'ile!!

I can't even tell you what we had- pâtés, terrines, sliced meats, cheeses, cold casseroles... my goodness. We spent well over $50 in preparation for an hour long train ride "picnic". It was so, so worth it. The ladies who run the shop are quite friendly and at least a couple of them speak English. But if all else fails, pointing works. Not to be missed! Seriously...

If you didn't read my review of the Meat House, this is what you need to know- "All of the greatest steaks of my life have come from this meat house. There is nothing quite like the greatest steak of your life, I'm convinced it gives you slight superpowers and a feeling of euphoria." They have officially been beaten, but let it be known that Lyon has an unfair advantage. This place is clean, sleek, and smells amazing. There is a pristine glass case where you can see dozens of perfect-ten types of meat from the best regions in the world, and you can pick whatever you like. That is, if you don't want to order from their awesome menu. Best part is, the prices are fantastic. You get incredible quality for a price that is much lower than what I'm used to for product like this. Best steak dinner at a restaurant in my life. Make a reservation atleast a week in advance, or you lose.
