Head is still spinning with this amazing haute food court!
Jennifer Y.

Haute Food Court and Culinary Market including a number of counter seating and sit down restaurants. Finding all different gourmet brands of chocolates, pastries, pates, caviar, and, truffles. Friendly service found at each counter. Discovering something new to try on each of my visits! CHEERS!

10 different flavor eclairs with 5 people...

Want a couple of floors of some of the world's best pastry chiefs creations? This is your dream come true then. We went an hour before they closed and were still met with great service. The employees happily explained the choices we had and what to expect from each pastry if needed. The ambiance is as expected being surrounded by delicious pastries. Only good things.... Only good things..... They are part of a shopping mall that stays open about an hour after the regular retail stores close. This way you can get what you really came for without having to carry it around while shopping. Once outside one can go from window to window looking at the Christmas displays. This is a great place to sample different items such as 10 different flavors of eclairs. How can you give this less than 5 stars? You really can't. I love this place.

This place is very busy with many food options for all. There are stands to just buy things as well as places to sit and eat. It located across the street from the gallery with the roof top view. We went just for the giant croissant from the Philippe Conticini stand. It cost approximately 37€. It was very good. They do sell out so if this on your agenda get there earlier. Also they only put it in a bag with paper on top. So if you plan to continue around town you will want to ensure you have something to wrap it up in. Remember you are in France. We also grab two other deserts that were also amazing in taste. We did try a cake they called their Christmas special but we didn't buy it. It reminded us of a sponge/carrot cake with orange flavor

I was so excited to visit Galeries Lafayette Gourmet! The floor was filled with a variety of famous dessert shops and bakeries! My first stop was Pierre Hermé, my favorite shop! I got the Ispahan, which was on a whole different level of macaron quality. The raspberries were naturally sweet, and the cream was absolutely delicious--not too sweet. Next, I visited Pierre Marcolini, my favorite chocolate shop! I got several praline chocolate boxes, and they were incredibly delicious. The chocolate melted in my mouth. Truly great products! Next, I found Le Chocolat, Alain Ducasse's chocolate shop! I got the Children's Chocolate Series box, which features mini chocolate bars with animal prints on them. Very good products! I passed by L'Éclair de Génie, Jean-Paul Hévin, Alleno & Rivoire, Philippe Conticini, Louis Fouquet, and many more... Due to the limited time we had, I couldn't browse all the shops, but this place made me so happy. I definitely want to visit again to explore more shops on my next visit.

Wow, this place is amazing! First, the building was impressively clean, especially considering the large number of people passing through. Second, you can likely find any food item you're craving. I'm glad I stopped in before catching my flight because I was able to pick up a few food souvenirs to take home. Third, if you're looking for a place to dine after a long day of shopping, there are plenty of options to choose from on the top floors. While the prices are on the higher side, you get what you pay for. I stopped at Bagnard for their outstanding truffle risotto, and I couldn't have been happier with my decision! I still dream about its quality flavors, the creaminess, the presentation. The staff were very kind, even to tourists (as long as you use proper French etiquette). I didn't encounter any of the rude behavior that some people mention. Overall, I really appreciated the warm hospitality this place offers!

This is the food section, food court of the Galeries Lafayette. The main mall with the clothes, fashion and more is across the street. But we did enjoy this one here a lot more. To travel means to eat for us. And this Gourmet hall here is spectacular. You will find lots of stalls and counters of more and less know chefs and artists, smaller restaurants to grab a bite or real restaurants (upper floor) to sit down and dine. There's also a great grocery section in the sublevel. Chez Meunier has wonderful bread, patisserie, cakes and more. There's a long line, but very much worth the wait. Best bakery we think in Paris so far. Then there is Maison Boissier that also sells Marrons glacés. In different price classes. We bought a box of 12 pieces for 60 Euros. That might sound crazy. But they are really also crazy good. Amazing. Surely these two places were worth the visit already. Given a bigger budget we would have spent a lot more time and a lot more money here. But we just had some lunch at the (quite disappointing) Fish Point and then did some shopping in the sublevel. Great saucisses and saucissons, spices, honey and truffles of all kind. Wonderful, high quality products for every budget. A wonderful Gourmet Food court. We will definitely back here next time in Paris. With a bigger budget.

Omg!!

OMG! I wish we knew about this place from the beginning of our trip to Paris we found out about it last night and today is our last day in Paris so we stopped by to check it out and wow. Just wow. Food heaven. You want macaroons? There's at least 4 of them here including Jean Paul hevin & Pierre hermé. Chocolates and pastries galore. There are butchers cutting meat, cheese shops with cheese as far as the eye can see. There's a grocery with fruits and frozen food as well as refrigerated goods and snacks. We found truffle and caviar flavored chips as well as foie gras heaven... We even found a spice shop that serves different salts and spices... and a tea shop. Just go and check it out. You won't regret it.

This is my favorite market in Paris. The food quality is amazing. Fresh fruits, fresh seafood, a beautiful section of spices and rare salts and a must the amazing dessert stations. Service is on point everyone ready to serve you and welcoming. Many options here from some of the best pastry chefs in Paris and chocolatiers. We tried so many different yummy treats and none disappoint. Don't miss Yann Couvreur desserts the pistachio is to die for-forgot to take a pic and Alain Ducasse chocolates and Pierre Herme macarons. A must go when in Paris!

This is a little foodie slice of heaven. Fabulous wine store with very helpful staff. This place has stations curated by well known chefs featuring chocolates, eclairs, cakes, jamon, cheese, charcuterie, to go Chinese food, cakes...... really too many specialty foods to mention. You can sit and eat at one of the many restaurants - we opted for Dim Sum. Besides the little eateries, specialty treats they have a specialty grocery store - including fruits, veggies, meats, fish....WOW - overwhelming. They also have 2 floors of very cook cooking gear, dishes, wine accessories....If you've ever been to an EATALY it's like that but X20. LOVED IT!

This fancy "food court" is awesome. From the bright displays of fruits and veggies to the food stands - everything is displayed beautifully. I even enjoyed it more than the food court at Harrod's in London. The tomatoes were gorgeous! The passion fruit I bought was tasty. I don't know if I could afford to shop here regularly as a local, but as a tourist this place is great! I would love more seating though. A seating area where you could eat tomatoes, cheese, bread and drink the wine you just bought from the food court would be convenient if you didn't have time to go set up a picnic in a park somewhere. We went here twice in one day. Éclair de Génie for breakfast. We ended up deciding on Yves-Marie Le Bourdonnec (meat shop & restaurant/stand) for dinner. It was great. I loved the beef tartare here.

Fantastique! I could've spent hours here! But, my husband wasn't so keen on going down each and every aisle. On the ground floor, there are patisseries, food shops selling everything from jamon to pasta, Chinese food, and bread. The lower level is more of a grocery with pate, cookies, candies, chocolate, mustard, prepared food, and fresh produce. It reminds me of the Japanese department stores but much less crowded and smaller. Prices here seem reasonable and not too inflated even though it's in a major department store. I wish we had something like this in the US. It's an excellent place to purchase goodies for friends and family. Lots to see and buy! Don't forget to bring your reusable bag. Happy shopping!

Very busy mall. So when you think of mall in USA - you have individual stores- here the store has no walls and everything is in one roof. Pricing is good especially for perfumes, French clothing, and high end bags. Watch out for the Asian tourist - long lines in high end bags. If you spend greater than 175 euros, you can get your VAT(value added tax) in the store - about 18 percent - if you don't redeem that day- you have to deal with in the airport- but got to show that you have not used the purchased item yet. Small food court upstairs, make sure you head to the roof to view the city and Opera building.

Le Comptoir de la Gastronomie - An amazing French onion soup...

The most life- changing experience with French cuisine. This is what French culinary dreams are…read moremade of. Get the appetizer grilled foie gras with side of greens, you won't regret it. The richness of the flavor and the texture which is not reminiscent of the traditional roasted duck or foie gras, but rather a much more like a luxurious and indulgent version. We enjoyed our dinner on the outside of the restaurant after about a 20-30 minute wait. The bone marrow had the best flavor I've experienced for the dish. However, it is definitely overshadowed by the rich flavor of the foie gras. This experience was unforgettable, with our view of Parisian streets on a brisk, April night. We even came back on our last night, but didn't realize the hours on Google maps was for the deli. The restaurant closes earlier, before 9:00 PM. This meal got us thinking about Paris in a positive light, and we hope to be able to come back to eat the amazing dishes again!

Get the tasting menu and bone marrow (they're famous for duck and foie gras). Good overall if not…read moreexceptional French food. However, the portions were more than expected considering it was gourmet. We couldn't finish our entrees. Good spot for French brunch as it is a top fine-food grocer and deli. Sit outside on the sidewalk. There is an awning/umbrella to block out the sun which was great on a hot day. Note founded in 1894!

This small shop by the Marche des Enfants Rouges, Paris' outdoor covered market, is definitely…read moreworth the stop. When I went, there was a long line that stretched through much of the block. They allow one group at a time into the shop for a fully curated Jamon Beurre experience. Yep, that is all you can get here. Ham sandwiches, but it's a much more involved experience than that. When you walk in, there is an entire wall with a cooler displaying every kind of ham possible. You have to pick whether you want cured or just baked ham. What region? They offer Italian, French, Spanish and then you have to narrow it down to the region! Then you do the same with the cheese. I ended up getting two sandwiches, the cured ham from Spain's basque country paired with Ossau-Iraty, or basque sheep milk cheese. My other sandwich was a French baked ham sandwich with comte. Which was the winner? I have to say, the cured meat from Spain was out of this world and in our taste test, was the top winner. I know, I shouldn't say that in France!

I came around 2:30pm on a Wednesday and there was only a very short line. They do take groups one…read moreby one so the speed at which the line will move depends on how quickly those ahead of you decide. The service is friendly and personalized. The owner is a very kind Italian woman who is very knowledgeable about the meats and the cheeses. She makes sure that you end up with a pairing you are happy with! They serve jambon beurre sandwiches which is basically just ham and butter on a baguette. However, you can add cheese for 4.50 euro. The decision tree really is: 1) cured vs cooked ham 2) cheese or no cheese 3) cow vs sheep's cheese. My husband and I both went for the cooked ham since this one is more traditional in France. The cooked ham has different flavors out of which we got one with truffle ham and the other with Bergamont which is a citrus fruit. We both got cheese: the truffle ham was paired with a buttery and sweet cow's emmental, while the Bergamont we paired with a nutty and earthy sheep's Ossau-Iraty. Both pairings worked beautifully! The baguette was perfect. It had a substantial crust without being too hard and had a fluffy and moist inside. The quality of the products was evidently very high. There is no seating inside so we took ours to the Temple Square a few blocks away since it was a beautiful day! Highly recommend you try. Not sure I would use longer than 20 min out of a trip to line up for it so I suggest you come during off hours.
