I stumbled upon this store while driving to another destination. I was spending a month in Saumur…read morein a rental house with a kitchen and so was keen to buy staples for when I cooked in the rental house. Prior to finding this supermarket I was shopping at the mega-mart "Super U" or visiting several shops including the charcuterie, boucherie and boulangerie to get all the staples needed to make a meal. I think a fair comparison for the Diagonal Supermarche in the United States would be Sprouts or Trader Joes. You can purchase all manner of food items there plus some sundries, cutlery, etc. The employees were incredibly friendly and helpful even though they spoke NO english and I speak zero French. The deli/butcher counter was filled with all kinds of french delicacies including many freshly prepared but ready-to heat and eat dishes. The produce was fresh and there was a great variety for a small store. This store is a great solution for either the drudgery of trekking through the megalo-mart supermarkets or the time consuming and physically taxing (for an American anyway) requirement of shopping at multiple stores. WHEN I return for another lovely holiday in Saumur, this will be my go-to place for every day grocery shopping. I'll still visit the Saturday markets in the center of Saumur because that is an experience regardless of whether shopping for food or not!
