Being a brit in Paris, I was delighted to see a Big British brand in WH Smith, this is one of the…read morefew British Bookstores in the city, I must reiterate the comments in a few other reviews that the self-proclaimed first British Book Store nearby which "is never open" was... not actually open.
It had an old book store vibe to it, they also had a small range of drinks which were overpriced but where isn't in Paris? They had books mainly in English, I think they had a few French ones too.
The store wasn't as modern inside and it didn't have the typical WHSmith experience which one would get in the UK, but it was a decent store nonetheless. They really do need to work on the entrances though, the only entrance due to COVID is up steps which wouldn't be disabled friendly, meanwhile, the front entrance is used as an exit - surely they should just use one door each for the front to accommodate everybody?
3* - Not a bad book store overall, a familiar brand which I like, service impersonal and prices a little high though.
