The Beaugrenelle is a really nice building, fairly close to my hotel and the Tour Eiffel, which…read morebasically is a high end shopping mall, with a large number of designer brands yet still outlets such as Hagen-Dans, Nike and Adidas seem here. The staff around the mall seem nice, it is quite a nice building in both parts, with there being a bridge to connect the two malls, which are located on the opposite side of the streets. Shops here also include a small high-street of shops, which is part of the mall but with only enterences from the street, this includes an Orange store which is recently closed for a refurb, a very poor branch of Mcdonald's and a fairly nice Pandora store. Due to high security alerts, there is a lot of security on here, near enough one in every shop including Marks and Spencer, and you will be seared when you go in, while someone will look in your bag and mainly use a detector, but considering the recent events in Paris which are devastating, you can understand why and it is putting people's safety first, and I don't have a problem with that. The lifts are also pretty cool, on the left hand of the mall, playing music as you ride in the lifts, however on the right side sadly they are not, with few lifts seeming to be very small and move very slow, meaning if you actually need it with a pram or wheelchair it can be hard and frustrating and take ages just to go up a level, I know how painful this is, I've even been stuck in a lift before having only needed to get up 4 steps, and was there for an hour, which is a similar, albeit more extreme example. Beaugrenelle might be a small building, but they do have some really nice places inside, including a Monoprix which was opened today and is classed as part of the mall, despite not being directly in it, which is quite a nice supermarket/department-store which also has a cool looking Starbucks Coffee inside. There even is a cinema here, making it the perfect place to spend an hour or two, and even admire the building, as it is a really nice place, both of them are and it even contains one of 14 Marks and Spencer store's in France, which is a total dwarfed by 852 stores in the United Kingdom. They have free-wifi as well with no sign-up required other than accepting the terms and conditions, which is good and still easy to do if you have no knowledge of speaking french, Overall, this is a really nice mall and I count myself lucky infact to have it so close to my hotel, as it is so easy to pick up essentials with many large stores, including Monoprix who have a self-juicing orange machine and Marks and Spencer who have a great gluten free range and even english labeling, so I'm pleased to give this mall a solid 4 star rating!

I was in dire need of a comfortable pair of shoes and walked in to the Nike store…read more I was not sure if anyone on the sales team spoke English. I was pleased to find a young man who spoke fluently, and had a helpful spirit also. He recommended a style of shoe and searched for my size. He was so professional and friendly. I know that I will probably never need a pair of shoes in Paris again. But if I did I would definitely come back to this shop.

Worst service I've ever experienced anywhere. They have 10 shoppers and 35 people working and NOT…read moreONE WANTS TO HELP US. We were literally begging for help to buy customized shoes and clothes and they refused us service because they close in 25 minutes. They were turning people away from exiting the elevators because they closed shortly. Um, if your not closed yet, your not closed! No one wants to work. Won't be giving my $$$ to Nike. Horrible representation for a flagship store.

Where do i begin? The employees at this establishment are decent and kind unlike their security…read morestaff counterparts who are incompetent and in my experience plain evil. I have experienced persecution and aggressive behavior from their security on multiple occasions; i have decided that enough is enough. On one occasion the security guard waited until i was already in the sidewalk and ripped/dragged my cart out of my hands; in addition my arms were full with 2 large shopping bags. He couldn't care less that i might have dropped everything. He then proceeded to put his hands in one of my bags and take out a tea container to "scan" it. I could not believe his entitlement. I suppose it bothers them to see people with an abundance of groceries. I spend at least a thousand euros a month there out of convenience; unfortunately the treatment from their security is despicable. Not to mention there are various "check points" in the store and "mazes" of clothes, toys, home articles etc, before you can finally exit the store. There is also a detector and security cameras even by the tea isles, and store employees attending the self checkout. My question is : what are these security guards even doing there? They accuse, harass and aggress as they please. It is not a pleasant experience for the consumer, let alone for a woman, on the contrary. It is an experience full of unnecessary anxiety and injustice. If i could report them to a higher court trust me i would; to that height is the level of unpleasantness i have experienced from doing my groceries there. If you have a choice of going somewhere else, my suggestion is you do so. Especially if you are planning on doing a large shopping spree. I suppose they do not mind losing loyal customers. And yes i am a woman; and i have been by myself in each incident.

This was my local grocery store for a couple of months that I lived in this area. It was walkable…read moreto my home and super close to the line 10 metro. The bonus here is if you spend over 50 Euro on the food they will deliver it free to your residence. I was able to get everything I needed here for the most part. I appreciate that convenience of Monoprix, that you can do some light clothing and accessory shopping as well as food. If you have a car, they have a parking garage attached underneath the store. I believe parking is free for the first hour or so. I also got a rewards card, since in Paris Monoprix is a chain and was happy to see that I scored some extra discounts on my shopping.
