Now that she was happy we further browsed the store and I heard a piano playing in the distance and walked toward the sounds. A man (I think was a customer) was playing the classic black piano while other patrons were sitting at small tables listening. Near the piano lounge, there was a full service bakery where we purchased several fresh pastries, which we immediately ate. This type of department store you just dont find in America. The only negative was there were no bathrooms on the property. The security guard advised the bathroom was in the McDonalds restaurant next door - this seemed very odd.

The place is two floors with escalators between the floors. They have all kinds of good things a a very extensive house mark. I find the quality on most of their house mark products very good. I always make it a point to stop here to bring back some French groceries to Holland one because the quality and selection is much better than what you have in NL and two grocery prices in France are much better than what we have in NL. Finally they have a self checkout at the end that you can set to a number of different languages if you can't speak French (I can't) which is nice so you don't have to wait in line for the regular checkouts.

Opening the earliest of the grocery stores near my hotel, this location of Carrefour City was my…read morefirst retail stop in Paris. It provided reasonable prices for some essential food that became my snacking items between meal outings. The Carrefour Group is a French multi-national retailer, founded in 1960 as a supermarket chain. It later created the concept of a 'hypermarket' in Europe, combining a grocery store with a department store. It now has different formats of stores, based on size, convenience, and location. The 'City' concept is marketed towards urban dwellers who want quick, close-by food availability. I was jetlagged and couldn't sleep, so walked over to this location soon after it opened at 07:00. Picked up one of my favorite snacking cheeses: Compte (4,40€ for 250g), butter (1,89€ for 125g) for spread, and two bottles of 1.5l bottled water (,23€ each). If one can't tell, certain basic 'must-have' food item prices are controlled (either through regulation or competition). One thing they did not have any were baguettes, so had to pick that up somewhere else. Checkout was a snap, using a credit card with no surcharge.

Good grocery store, but the baguettes go quick so get there early! A good one-stop shop all over…read moreParis.

Right before me, a couple of elderly english people saw their articles (one half-baguette, a bag of croissants and a few slices of ham) trashed away by the same cashier with two fingers, as if these were radioactive and required pincers... Well, unless you're OK with being trashed by unhappy clerks, then by all means do half their job and get the exact amount of money required... or make the extra 100 meters north to the local Nôtre-Dame Market...

Service is quick and usually very friendly. M&S also gets a big green tick as they seem to have the most ambitious sustainability goals when compared to any other large supermarket chain. This includes things like trying to source fish from sustainable fisheries, fairtrade ingredients, free range eggs etc. The other great thing is that their goals extend beyond their stores, and extend into their supply chain, which is where a real difference can be made. If only all supermarket chains would strive for similar sustainability goals!

The only drawbacks: (a) produce is a bit lacking and (b) the checkout ladies aren't the friendliest. And once, a homeless man was waiting by the register begging for extra change to purchase a beer but security didn't really do anything; he eventually got enough spare change to make his purchase and left. Still, I'd come back.
