In this installment of our Best of Gluten-Free in Paris series, we provide a guide to grocery stores that stock high-quality gluten-free items. Here are a few places we suggest checking out to stock up on gluten-free foods in the City of Light. 

Naturalia

Naturalia is a large chain of organic grocery stores (owned by Monoprix) that jumped on the gluten-free bandwagon early with freshly baked breads and an extensive stock of gluten-free items including crackers, cereal, pasta, and cookies. You will find a similar selection of bio, gluten-free items at citywide organic grocery store chains such as Bio C’ Bon and Biocoop.

Bien L’Epicerie

Bien l’Epicerie is an independent organic grocery store with two locations in Paris. In addition to a wide selection of gluten-free items, you will also find an impressive bulk food section, beautiful seasonal vegetables, and even aromatherapy and beauty products.

  1. Thanks so much for these useful pages. I usually visit Paris once a year and it would be really useful if at the end of the article there was a summary of names and addresses of the businesses featured with a ‘print’ facility so I could add the information to my growing portfolio of information about the ‘City of Light’.
