Was staying at the Radisson Blu down the street and was looking for some groceries during my visit to Nice. There are two Carrefour stores nearby. A Carrefour City store and this Carrefour Market. What is the difference? I chose the latter as the store is larger in size. Still not as big as a regular Carrefour store, which would be comparable to a Walmart.
This store is on one of the main roads into the center of Nice. It is a mix of apartments, condos and seaside hotels with views of the Mediterranean. Decided to walk which was about a 10 minute walk away. There is a tram that runs by the store with a stop down the street.
The store was decently stocked and prices were reasonable. I was drawn particularly to the selection of packaged baked goods, like the huge bags of madeleines for a few euros. Overall, I found the selection to be sufficient albeit nothing particularly standout in quality or appeal about the goods. It is a mainstream grocery, so don't expect to find a lot of specialty products here. If you are looking for premium goods, I would recommend shopping at Monoprix instead. read more
