Excellent, excellent! The selection is expansive, the prices are good(could get the same amount at a franprix grocer with much less quality), and the staff speaks conversational English. It was easy to find cheeses we liked(we got two varieties) and we were out the door with a snack for 5 euros. We will be back each day of this trip!

I cannot say enough about how fabulous this shop is or what a wonderful experience I had there! I rushed over there late Saturday evening expecting it to be closed on Sunday as so many other shops are in Paris. I arrived about 20 minutes before closing and the store was bustling. Just as I arrived one of the two gentlemen who were working hung up his work jacket and bid adieu to his co-worker.I figured this would not bode well for me as my French is far from fluent and I was hoping to get a few specific items. When it was my turn to be helped I was pleasantly surprised to find that Denis, the gent at the cheese shop spoke very good English and was quite charming. Even though it was late and other people were coming in to shop he never rushed me. I was buying a fair amount of cheese I wanted to travel with and my Mom wanted some as well so he was making a double order of everything. When Denis found out the cheese would be traveling, he offered to vacuum sealed our cheese selections. He even gave me a block of their house made sweet butter on my way out — gratis, perhaps as a small thank you for our large purchase. I also found out that they would be open the following day — score! I returned Sunday to purchase a gift selection of cheeses and a nice bottle of cider for our airbnb hostess as a thank you gift and to take some pictures of the shop as I did not have time in my hurry the day before. I also made an additional purchase of a thermal bags with their logo on it partially to keep our cheese cold and also as a practical souvenir. Also, for those of you who know or care about such distinctions this is a true BOF shop(buerre, oufs, fromage) with some house brand(made for their stores especially I believe there may be a couple more locations) selections, crackers and lovely ciders as well as their vast selection of cheese. Their also carry a few other dairy items such as milk and yogurt. If you are a person who cares about food or just likes best I would say do not miss a visit to this fine fromagerie.

M. Beillevaire a inventé un fromage, le Machecoulais, il vient de Loire Atlantique et a commencé par faire les marchés dans cette région. Aujourd’hui c’est une enseigne connue et réputée. grand choix de fromages de toutes les régions, très bons conseils des vendeurs, œufs frais, crème fraîche, beurre, yaourts, plus un petit rayon épicerie. pendant la saison automne-hiver ils proposent une tartiflette délicieuse. très bon spot.

Very helpful staff that helped us choose our cheese since we really know a little about what the specialties are.

Amazing, pungent selection of cheeses. Just delightful. Just don’t touch the pieces of cheese yourself. You will get barked at… Ask the person working there to pick it up!

Pascal Beillevaire est un maître fromager. Ce titre né s’usurpe pas; on est ici au royaume des vrais connaisseurs du fromage, rien à voir donc avec un rayon«à la coupe«de supermarché. Autant dire que l’étal de M. Beillevaire ferait baver les plus réticents à la science fromagère. Si vous voulez épater des amis qui s’y connaissent en fromage en visite dans la capitale, emmenez-les donc ici. Effet garanti.
