Food Courts : the trendy venues of Paris Region

After Turin and New York, Eataly has now opened a branch in the Marais, in the centre of Paris. The hams hanging from the ceiling, brightly coloured shelves of fruit and veg, fresh and dried pasta, Italian bakery and wine cellar all bring to mind a market square in Italy.

La Felicita, the Big Mamma group’s food court offering, a vast 4,500-square-metre area which includes five kitchens and three bars, is going strong after the successes of Pink Mamma and Biglove Caffé! Enjoy wandering through the space with its leafy plants and rows of fairy lights.

There’s plenty of choice for eating, between the trattoria counters, pizzeria, and burger joint. You can enjoy it all, sitting next to your neighbours at the long trestle tables, in a super-friendly atmosphere enlivened by the great DJ sets.

At the top of the Printemps de l’Homme men’s department store, Printemps du Goût brings together the biggest names in the French food world — artisans, chefs and meilleurs ouvriers de France such as La Maison du chocolat and its ganaches, Laurent Dubois and his cheese, bread by Gontran Cherrier and Byzance caviar. It’s a great spot to do food shopping or sample the best France has to offer in food.

On the lower ground floor of the Galeries Lafayette des Champs-Elysées, 10 specially selected food counters are waiting in a modern food court that is a mix between a delicatessen, takeaway and chic canteen.

The culinary delights of Maison Kaspia, Verot and Stohrer can be enjoyed at brass-topped tables in this extremely Instagrammable, glamorous food court.

Just next door to Saint-Germain-des-Prés, good food can be enjoyed on the spot or to go at Beaupassage.

This very contemporary venue is home to leading lights on the French food scene: Thierry Marx has a bakery there, Anne-Sophie Pic dishes up gourmet snack food; there’s Yannick Alléno’s wine cellar, which turns into Burger Father and Son in the summer of 2021, Alexandre Polmard’s butcher shop, cheese by Nicole Barthélémy and Pierre Hermé’’s café.

The hippest of all can be found near Gare de Lyon, at Ground Control, a hybrid, multidisciplinary space to eat, grab a drink, chill out or go to a concert. The vast, 4,500-square-metre indoor space offers specialities from around the globe, which you can tuck into at the big wooden tables.

From Mexican and Chinese to Indian, African, Taiwanese and Greek food, there’s plenty to satisfy all tastes and appetites!

No need to introduce this institution of good food. La Grande Epicerie du Bon Marché is classy, elegant and a staple of gourmet shopping, located in one of the two buildings of the temple of Parisian chic.

On its shelves you will find the best food produce from around the world, from France to the United States, not forgetting the United Kingdom - culinary voyage guaranteed!

Paddock, the new shopping and lifestyle destination located in Romainville, just three minutes from the metro and a short stroll from the Canal de l’Ourcq, features a gigantic food hall, with no fewer than 10 restaurants.

The names alone will make your mouth water: Korean cuisine at Dochilak, Vietnamese food at Mekong Kitchen, ceviche specialist Cru , and the New York Italian IT Trattoria.

A round-the-world tour of gastronomy in 4,000 square metres!
