About this store
This is one branch of the Carrefour chain, trading in the City format on Rue de la Roquette in Bastille. It is the kind of épicerie you use for a basket of everyday things rather than a full week's shop, and its place in the neighbourhood is a practical one: a small store you pass on the way home.
A student cashier takes the time to answer questions and give advice, and the manager has been known to take responsibility when something goes wrong.
Bag checks are the friction you should expect. Security staff have asked to look inside bags at the entrance and on the way out, and it is worth knowing this before you walk in with a full day bag.
There is no seating and no counter service to speak of; you shop the shelves and pay at the till.
For a visitor staying nearby, the value is in the hours: a late close six days a week and a Sunday that runs to 8 pm, when much of the neighbourhood is shut. It suits a quick restock, not a destination shop.
What to look for
Open until 10 pm Monday to Saturday
A late close six days a week makes this a useful stop for a late arrival or an evening restock.
Sunday, 9 am to 8 pm
Sunday afternoon is when the service is warmest, with a student cashier who takes time over questions.
Bag checks at the entrance
Security staff have asked to look inside bags, so travel light or keep valuables close.
Who is this for
This suits a traveler staying in Bastille who needs a late or Sunday restock without crossing the city. It also works for someone arriving at Voltaire station with an empty bag and an hour to fill before dinner.
When you want a proper loaf rather than a grocery basket, Boulangerie Miemie on Rue Sedaine is the bakery to walk to for its long-fermented sourdough.
The verdict
The hours are the reason to come, and it is a swing-by for a quick restock.
