A cheese counter that also feeds lunch
Fromagerie du Pré is an independent specialty shop on Rue André Joineau in the Ourcq neighbourhood, and the first thing you meet inside is the cheese itself: a small room with a wide selection laid out behind the counter and staff ready to talk you through it.
The cheeses are the reason to come. You can put together a winter raclette, pick up cubes of white goat's cheese for an aperitif, or ask for a custom-prepared platter and let the counter choose for you; the presentation comes out arranged and generous. Advice is part of the service, and tastings happen at the counter while you decide.
The shop also does lunch. Prepared dishes are made for the midday rush from nearby businesses, and you can reserve your meal ahead on the shop's Instagram page. Everything is kept small and well maintained, with a decor that looks cared for rather than thrown together.
On cost, a lunch dish stays under €10, and a few items to take away usually land somewhere in the €5–20 band. That makes it a place to buy a platter or a midday meal without spending much.
The shop suits anyone building a cheese course, a raclette or a picnic, and anyone working nearby who wants a proper lunch for under €10.

Who is this for
This suits anyone assembling a cheese course for a dinner or a raclette at home, since the counter will build a platter to your brief and talk you through the selection. It also works for someone working near Ourcq who wants a proper midday dish for under €10, with the option to reserve it ahead on Instagram. And if you are putting together a picnic, a few cheeses here fit the €5–20 band without much planning.
The verdict
It is a small neighbourhood cheese counter rather than a destination fromagerie with a cellar and ageing room, but for a platter, a raclette or a lunch dish under €10 in Ourcq it does the job well.
