    Cheese And Collect This shop is a favorite because it’s one of the friendliest fromageries in the chic (and sometimes a tad haughty) Saint-Germain neighborhood. Alexandre Gayral, a third-generation fromager, and his knowledgeable team offer exceptional cheeses as well as a varied selection of charcuterie, French honey, and jam. They also sell unpasteurized farmhouse butter that’s perfect for slathering on toasted bread, but is so delicious I often just eat small chunks of it like cheese (it will change your life, trust me!). Alex’s wife is Italian, so they also offer an interesting selection of Italian products such as hard mountain cheeses wrapped in chestnut leaves, or for the well-heeled, cheese studded with truffles. Two items that I always purchase here are Saint-Domnin de Provence, a tangy goat cheese decorated with a sprig of lavender, and Hércule, a hard, buttery mixed sheep and goat milk cheese produced in the Pyrénées mountains. Shopping here is a delight, both for the selection of cheeses and the wonderful staff. Remove Details from Google Maps 19 Rue Saint-Placide, 75006 Paris, France +33 6 86 81 58 30 View in Google Maps

    Fromagerie Sanders Twiggy and Michel Sanders, two of the nicest cheesemongers in Paris, share their passion and knowledge from their stand inside the covered market of Saint-Germain, which caters to the well-heeled denizens of the 6th arrondissement. They are always warm and welcoming, offering an extensive selection of cheese and other dairy products. Once you’ve tasted their perfectly ripened, runny Saint-Marcellin and Saint-Féliciens from the notable producer, Mère Richard, you’ll never buy them anywhere else. This authentic Parisian market is also the perfect place to stock up on picnic supplies. A handful of purveyors sell fresh fruit and vegetables, there’s a nice wine shop, a stand that specializes in truffles, and a few vendors who sell cured ham, pâtés, and other types of charcuterie.

    Aux Merveilleux de Fred Make sure you pin the 12th arrondissement as one of your must-visit neighborhoods in Paris because this patisserie is so worth the journey! Originally from the northern city of Lille, this popular pastry shop is known for their namesake: the merveilleux cakes of Fred, the pastry chef who started it all. What’s a ‘merveilleux’ you may ask? It’s basically a meringue that’s coated with whipped cream and shaved chocolate. Yes, it’s definitely an indulgence!

    Fromagerie Laurent Dubois - best Though these fromageries are quite possibly the priciest in Paris, this is where I go when I want a one-of-a-kind cheese or if I’m looking for the very best cheese that France has to offer. I suggest taking your time and asking questions. They welcome cheese-loving visitors from all over the globe, so the staff are multilingual and have been expertly trained to help you put together the perfect cheeseboard, or choose cheeses to vacuum seal (sous-vide) to take home with you. The extraordinary products offered here, such as a ewes’ milk cheese meticulously layered with minced black truffle, fresh chèvres marinated in nut oils with herbs and chiles, as well as the classic French fromages are worth every centime.
