The best grocery stores Franche-Comté

A big reference store on the city. The products are exposed to apparently bric brac. The products have a small Italian influence (Parmesan, chianti, panettone, amaretti, fresh pasta…), without forgetting excellent teas, cafes, jams. The two acolytes, Jacqueline and Jean-Jacques Pichon, who held this store were generous on the selection of whiskies (almost 200), on port and on regional products. The pizzas are excellent, to test absolutely!

Do you know the gougère, an icaunese speciality if ever there was one? This choux pastry made with Gruyère or Comté cheese was born in 1571 from the imagination of two roasters from Icaun, Louis Pyneau and Jean Prunutz, hence the name of this little store which pays tribute to them. It offers wines and regional products. But, above all, the owner of the place, Aymeric, has chosen to reinvent the famous gougère here. Snail butter, marbled ham, gingerbread... in total there are more than twenty varieties that are proposed according to the days and the seasons. We love it !

For button mushrooms, Blandine and Luc Lecherf are accustomed to calling them Dijon or Dijonnais. They are cultivated in the growing rooms of a small château located at the bottom of a combe on the Sombernon plateau. A place steeped in history, where you can also find shiitake, oyster and poplar mushrooms, fresh or cooked. La Champignonnière is also a farmhouse restaurant where you can enjoy mushroom-based recipes for lunch on Sundays, subject to reservation.

The very beautiful boutique that has just opened in the centre of Beaune is not just another address that offers regional Burgundy products, but also local French products for Burgundians. This is the message that the enthusiastic manager Patrice Gérard, accompanied by his wife Barbara, wants to convey. The products on offer highlight the gastronomy of the whole of France. Dishes cooked in Périgord or Normandy jars, confits and jams from L'Artisan des Délices, spices, teas from La Compagnie Coloniale, pure fruit juices from the Patrice Font workshops, Billeau cookies, vintage La Quiberonnaise sardines, preserved Mediterranean fish from the artisanal cannery Azaïs Polito, chocolates, syrups and liqueurs... A rich range of products brought back from visits throughout France to artisanal producers, often Living Heritage Companies heirs to famous know-how. Patrice Gérard, a history buff from France, knows his producers, he can tell you about their production methods and above all advise you according to your desires. The ideas in Patrice's head are rushing around and tasting-discoveries at the boutique are scheduled. A very beautiful shop with an absolutely charming welcome.

Since 1982, Gino and Eve have run En Italie, a renowned delicatessen in the center of town. Since March 2024, young Anna and her parents, Andrea and Maria Luce, also from Italy, have taken over. Charcuterie, cheeses, pasta and other transalpine specialities continue to be showcased by this team just as passionate as the previous one. A new feature is a small dining area, normally extended by a terrace in fine weather, where you can enjoy pizzas, focaccias, cannelloni and lasagne on the spot.

A heliculturist since 2020, Perrine Doudin has won over many of Burgundy's Michelin-starred chefs, who reserve her gros gris for use in their most famous dishes. The farm extends over 5,000 m², where 200,000 snails are raised each year in the best possible conditions. Their food, consisting of clover, alfalfa, herbs, radishes and cabbage, is grown directly in their immediate environment. Everything is 100% organic and processed into canned or frozen products designed on site.

From farm to fork is the slogan of La P'tite Ferme en Pays Chatillonnais. The family farm, established in 1990, specializes in meat and offers in its small shop, direct sales in boxes or retail, of beef, lamb, veal or pork. The house speciality is beef transformed into merguez, Espelette pepper jelly or sausage and lamb. The animals are reared in the best conditions, with respect for the animals, in the meadow, under the mother's care for the calf and fed with cereals from the farm. The oxen are of the brown breed, a well-known breed in the Châtillonnais. In order to satisfy as many customers as possible and to meet the offer, it is not only meat that you can find in the shop. Supplied by local producers, La P'tite ferme also offers poultry and trout to order, fruit juices, cheeses, yoghurts, wines, Crémant du Chatillonnais....

Do you feel like enjoying a fruit flavour? Think of the products of Emmanuelle Baillard! Coulis, fruit juice, jams and jellies, syrups... Blackcurrant, raspberry, mango, vine peach, mirabelle prune, guava, tomatoes... Whether they are from here or elsewhere, they are from France, Emmanuelle selects them himself; he does not hesitate to travel to the other side of the world. Three fruit nectars come from organic agriculture: the blackcurrant nectar, the apricot and the mirabelle one. He made two exquisite products for the Bernard Loiseau group: the Morello cherry nectar and blackcurrant buds, the Lorraine mirabelle and grapefruit nectar. This year, the range has extended with a salted butter caramel and blackcurrant of Burgundy. As sweets or in spreads... A delight. As for the salted dishes, find vinegars with fruit pulp, confits, spices like the pepper with blackcurrant, made from blackcurrant buds harvested in February. A noble product, with vegetable and fruity flavour. Our favourite? The Reunion mango confit and the shallot of Brittany. A great combination.

Located in the middle of the commercial streets of Saulieu, the Cadeau Gourmand is the shop you should not miss to bring back a delicious souvenir of the region. François Dubois who created this shop over 10 years ago has entirely arranged this latter in 2016 on rue du Sallier. The new shop is an invitation to purchase good products, its 100% pine decoration is very relevant. A revival that sweetly smells quality and local ingredients and which has enlarged its wine section with the Cave de la Basilique. You naturally find the great names of mustard, Fallot or Reine de Dijon, the Anis de Flavigny, Edmond Briottet's liqueurs and alcohols, Emmanuelle Baillard nectars and syrups. Many items are produced in Morvan, like honey, gingerbreads and beer. By the way, the Beer section is interesting because it makes us discover several local productions. The Cadeau Gourmand regularly renews its selections following the seasons and the innovations. If you think of offering your choice, do not hesitate to make up a gift basket that you can exactly calculate but which will surely have an effect! The striking red burgundy façade invites you to push its door.

Books and articles related to the world of wine stand alongside beautiful objects and other items bearing the effigy of the Dijon owl. The store has a cellar where wine tasting workshops are organized with a sommelier.

The Moulin Maurice had to stop running due to a lack of authorisation to use the hydraulic power from the Seine. Since then, it has become a delicatessen in which Anne-Sophie Maurice continues the tradition of preparing and selling flours (from the Jura) assembled according to her own recipes, from type 45 flour to "14 cereals", including that of the Gaudes. Moulin Maurice also sells fresh produce, seasonal vegetables, local meats and cheeses, organic pork or beef, trout fillets from Veuxhaulles-sur-Aube, snails from Vernot, wines from the Châtillonnais..

La Jeannette is a real place of life, at the same time store, small restaurant, bar-tea room and place of chats. An address as precious as unusual. In a vintage sixties spirit created by Carine Veysset, you can find here gift ideas, decoration and offbeat too, a real cabinet of curiosities. The creations of local artists rub shoulders with gourmet specialties and Burgundy snails rub shoulders with local beers and other lemonades. Even more unusual, you can buy Pinot Noir or Chardonnay plants

A major French mustard manufacturer, Reine de Dijon, which is identified with its fleur-de-lis, is constantly renewing itself in a market where it is necessary to seduce the taste buds of fine gourmets. To do this, the boldness of the recipes and the presence in the best delicatessens is the occasion for numerous meetings. In 1840, Reine de Dijon was one of the first French manufacturers of the famous condiment. The factory, located in Fleurey-sur-Ouche since 1996, produces more than 70 tons of mustards every day in a very complete range, from the most classic to the most elaborate with ever more surprising condiments and spices. An average of twenty different recipes are offered, some of which are seasonal, such as truffle mustard... The recipes are varied, Madagascar pepper, walnut, curry, blackcurrant cream, Provençal... The IGP Burgundy mustard is produced with mustard seeds and AOP white wine from Burgundy. Are you looking for an organic mustard? You have the classic mustard, the one in grains and the one with honey. And let's be a little chauvinistic, all Reine de Dijon mustards, except the organic one, are produced with mustard seeds grown in France. For its 180th anniversary, the brand has completely revamped its offer and launched an unusual range of 12 new mustards, guaranteed not to contain any preservatives or artificial flavourings and always made only from seeds grown in France. A foolproof inventiveness that allows to combine classic flavours and improbable tastes like mojito or tandoori. The packaging is offered in 25, 100 or 200 g jars, in glass, tube or stoneware with an elegant and easily identifiable presentation. The design of the labels on the jars intended for delicatessens is based on the brand's historical codes, which gives it a vintage image that is completely in tune with the times.

Bertrand Bazin created the Epicerie Paysanne in the center of town to give his customers access to products from the farms of the Beaune region and the Saône plain.

People like to come and do their shopping, and restaurant owners collect their orders just a few steps from their kitchen. A very appreciated short circuit, fresh products.

It took David Chanoir 2 years of reflection to launch his grocery store that advocates excellence. The idea is articulated between traditional and refined groceries. To offer salty or sweet foods with taste and naturalness, without preservatives or colourings. Thus, alongside strictly selected everyday products, the visitor can find French and international specialities: peppers from Malaysia, Indonesia... Batak berry, red wholemeal rice, foie gras, truffles and even Lucas' smoked salmon. In a luminous and functional layout, sweets are displayed alongside the good bottles.
