Anything you need. Totally, truly French! Loved our purchases. Cosmetics, socks, food, souvenirs. read more

This place is a small and very nicer version of a grocery store selling home goods and clothing. Prices are higher then the grocery store but for convenience, i stopped in often for beer, wine and water. Thy sell chips and some American products. But its fun to try the French stuff. Prices are high but convenience makes up for it. Clothing i would compare to Old Navy so not worth it and is on street level so have to go downstairs for the grocery items. It took me a couple days to figure this out lol. Bring your own bags because they will charge you. If you are staying in Saint Germain, this will suffice for needed things. read more

When you find your self in Paris without ___________ (fill in the blank) and you are on a budget, you can count on finding __________ at a very reasonable price at MonoPrix. It is that simple, very reasonable clothes, housewares and groceries in on compact space... read more

Stopped in while walking past and found it to be very convenient for some much needed items during our stay in Paris. They have a little bit of most things you'll need here. Don't expect a huge shopping experience but do know you can find things for breakfast, lunch & dinner here. They have a pretty comprehensive selection of pretty much everything, just in smaller portions than Americans are used to purchasing. It was totally fine with us because we spent more time exploring the city than cooking at the flat. read more

Someone told me Monoprix is like the Target of Paris, and I can see the comparison. It's affordable, open late (11 pm or midnight), carries clothing, accessories, cosmetics, housewares, and has a full fledged grocery section downstairs. We stocked up on French supermarket goodies to take back home, including chocolate bars (they have a large selection of Cote D'Or brand), jam, chestnut cream, Nutella in the glass jar, strangely flavored Pringles, etc. For French skincare and beauty products, I actually found Monoprix to be more expensive than cosmetics store chain Marionnaud (just down the street), although cheapest of all of course is City Pharma (review coming soon). However, we did find that Monoprix carries cotton pads (which I use for applying toner or removing makeup and nail polish), which the other stores do not (although I didn't search too hard at Marionnaud). read more

I had a pretty miserable experience here as below: 1. I tried clothes on in the women's section fitting room. There was a lady who was asking how many clothing pieces each person had. When I came out I told her I wanted to keep one item... she then instructed me TO PUT THE REST AWAY MYSELF. I was so confused but complied. She was super rude and unfriendly. 2. Went downstairs to grab chapstick and checkout. A crabby lady at the register was scanning all my stuff and I realized nothing was coming up discounted as advertised. I asked if it was discounted. She didn't understand (which is fine- I don't know french and don't expect her to know English) ... but then she got annoyed when I showed her I didn't want all of the stuff. And she's yelling and continuing to scan. No one helped me get the discounts. There was a manager who was super nice and did help take things off. Just got a nasty vibe here and no one was helpful. Not my experience in most other places in Paris. read more

Buyer Beware! Make sure you count your change because the workers are thieves! I went here to buy milk and tooth paste I was supposed to get 4 euro back but she only gave me 2 when I went back they didn't want to return my money. read more

Monoprix - Department Stores Near Me - Paris, 75

See all

We saw that there was a line forming outside of the store as it wasn't opened yet, and was wondering why that was the case and figured we had to stop in here after breakfast to check it out. At first I thought it was kind of like a department store, but they have lots of food items here too. This one had 2 floors where the women's clothing and make-up products were on the ground level and the rest of the stuff was at the basement level. This actually looks like one of the nicer Monoprix that we stopped in where a couple of the other looked slightly more run down. The prices seemed high compared to items I would pay for in the US, but this might be the norm for Paris and France. read more

Ok so I read this before I went but like they say  it's not the same to read/hear it then to see it. Not all Monoprix are created equal. My favorite as a traveler was the one on champs elysee they have the traditional souvenirs and they have preselected (downstairs ask if you must its easy to miss the stairs) French brands (snacks). Olive oil,tea(kusmi), chocolate,maxims,angelina chocolate...you know the works...some are even conveniently packed as gifts (mini honey gift set, tea set, mini olive oils)...try the Mazet-Mazettes sooo Good!! read more

Monoprix - Try these they bare worth every penny!! 7 Euros - Department Stores Near Me - Paris, 75

Ahhh - the ubiquitous Monoprix, the equivalent of an ABC Store in Hawaii but oh-so-French and oh-so-much-better!!! When you walk in you think you're just in another department store. But if you're looking for groceries and "affordable" food albeit take-out on the Champs Elysees - make sure you walk downstairs...that is where it is all "hidden." The market has very nice produce and is a regular grocery store - as well as a good mix of tourists and locals. If you're a tourist I hope you have a refrigerator in your hotel - then you can load up and not have to eat out all the time!!! read more

The posts that this doesn't have a grocery or fresh fruit / veg are wrong. Go to the second entrance which is the grocery. Great experience (forgot our bags but cheap one euro bags were right by registers) and had everything we were looking for. Helpful staff. Decent prices. Open wonderfully late for the jet lagged. read more

I love stopping in at Monoprix for Bourjois, Arcancil, Rouge Baiser or any number of French made cosmetics almost as much as soaking up the amazing architecture and French cuisine. Their house-made fitted t-shirts, blazers, cotton scarves are French fashion and style without a couture price tag. I "borrowed" the tweed unconstructed blazer my mom bought in 2000 and the 14 year old frock has received more than its share of compliments and "where did you get that, I have to have one." A white t-shirt for around 10 Euros in 2000, remains white and crisp and clean to this day. It's kind of bizarre to shop for the most flavorful strawberries on the planet (if only it were legal to bring a bag home in my luggage - it's NOT), wine and snacks for the room in the same place I'm buying an outfit; but if it works for some local Parisians, it works for me. read more

I went here looking for groceries. One review said it has produce, which it does not. It has a few aisles on the lowest level selling mostly tourist stuff like chocolate and wine. They do have a picked over selection of pre-made sandwiches, yoghurt and precut cantaloupe and pineapple. That was the closest stuff I could find that resembled groceries. You can find better "groceries" at a Starbucks. That said, it might be a very nice clothing store. read more

This is an excellent place to buy food at cheap prices. I came here to buy a litre of milk for .69 Euros which is about a dollar a litre Canadian. The milk taste better than regular run-of-the-mill Canadian milk too because it's organic, and according to the label, it has no growth hormones. The food and housewear stuff are all downstairs. When you enter the store on the mainfloor, you will see all clothing. Most people come here for the cheap groceries on the "Rodeo Drive" street. read more

Monoprix - Monoprix was very busy even at night. - Department Stores Near Me - Paris, 75

I can see how this would be identified as the "Target of Paris", it really is. I know some locations have produce, but this specific location does not. Just a few prepared foods like sandwiches, salads, yogurts and a bunch of snacks - chips, chocolates, cookies and breads. It is open late and stays amazingly busy late at night. They have clothing, accessories, minimal amount of shoes, undergarments, men's, children's, cosmetics, housewares, office supplies and novelties/gifts. Their one downfall is that they don't have a bathroom which doesn't encourage people to shop here long. I witnessed people put down their items and leave to find a bathroom, whether they return no idea, but something they may want to consider for customer retention. Also, The customer service here isn't great either. I had a employee ring my mother and I's items up together even through we out a bar between them to let her know they were separate. And once she did, she refused to cancel the order and fix her error. Instead she demanded that we pay together when we simply did not want to. She was paying card and I was paying with the limited Euros that I had. She was incredibly rude throughout the entire experience as well. The store is organized fairly easy but everything is super condensed. Seems like they could expand a bit to make more room. The store has two levels. Their items aren't high quality, but more like American's Target stores. I only really came here to purchase emergency socks and some tourist chocolate goodies as gifts. I don't see myself shopping here very much if I lived in the area. Prices are good. read more

We frequented monoprix while visiting Paris (that is before we discovered La grande Epicerie de Paris). We were renting an apartment so this was a good place for basic groceries and some pre-made foods. They have their own "bio" line so if you are looking for organic foods there is a good selection. There's also a good selection of produce. There's a bakery right under the escalators as you come down to the lower level. Clothing on the upper level (food is on the lower level). They don't carry any gluten free bread but have a good selection otherwise. We loved the local strawberries. The pre-made Moussaka was excellent! read more

Review for the marketside: tons of stuff that a tourist would fall in love for. Come here to get your prewashed, cut, fruit variety and to stock up on water, candy, snacks everything. I feel so much at home here. read more

Great place for food and snack shopping for those traveling on a budget. I bought a bag of croissants for breakfast and it definitely helped me save a few euros compare to buying breakfast at a cafe. Surprisingly, their croissants are pretty good. I wish my hotel had a microwave otherwise, a warm croissant would have been even better. This Monoprix chain opens late so definitely convenient for those late sleepers. Other than food, they sell just about everything else from clothing to home decor. Like another reviewer said, it is like a Target or Walmart. read more

After going to Sephora next door and taking a romantic stroll down Champs Elysee, we decided to come here on one of our last nights in Paris. I love that the manager here wears plain clothes, carries a man purse as his mobile office, and wears converse. I came here to buy some chocolate bars and Agnes B makeup because it's no longer carried in the US. Yes, the prices are a tad bit high but who cares? If I am in Paris, I am not constrained by a budget! I also bought some Rouge Baiser nail polish that was teeny tiny and pricey at $10 for less than 1/3oz but it was worth it because it has a very nice finish and tons of colors. Look for coffee and such downstairs while makeup is on the street level. If you're a makeup junkie like me, there's a lot of GWPs to light the French economy on fire! read more

Nice selection of gift and souvenir items, but grocery selection was very sparse. Not what I was expecting.

This is a great little store! You can but your groceries, a new set of dishes, or a new wardrobe! We stop in here time we're in Paris.
