Greengrocer in Mérignac since 2017 · Clos Montesquieu

Ripe for tonight, or for Sunday?

The question we ask
before we pick your melon.

At Le Panier Vert, we choose your fruit and veg with you: ripe for the day you'll eat them, with the advice to match. And to finish the shopping: cheese, dried fruit by weight, homemade North African pastries and fine foods.

The greengrocer's craft

At the supermarket, you buy a kilo. Here, we pick you a fruit.

  1. 01

    “When are you eating it?”

    Avocado for tonight or for the weekend, pears for snacking or for a tart: tell us when and how, and we'll choose accordingly.

  2. 02

    Tasted before it's sold.

    We're at the Brienne wholesale market at dawn, and we taste before we buy. So we can tell you what's at its best this week, and what isn't quite there yet.

  3. 03

    A smile thrown in.

    “A warm welcome”, “always with a smile”: that's what customers write in their reviews. We intend to keep it that way.

Inside the shop

The whole week's shopping, no supermarket detour.

Under the shop's little tiled roofs, the stalls follow the seasons. Everything else follows your shopping list.

Inside the shop: stalls under a little tiled roof, crates of apples, pears, citrus and kiwis, bottles of juice, an olive bar
The heart of it

Fruit & veg

Local growers first, through short supply chains, and the best of each season. Further afield when the season won't oblige, so there's choice all year round.

What's in season this month
The cheese counter: Comté, Beaufort, Roquefort, Brie de Meaux, Camembert de Normandie, heart-shaped Neufchâtel, Rocamadour and goat's cheeses, each with its own chalk slate

The cheese counter

Tell us what you're serving and we'll help you build the board.

Loose dried fruit display: apricots, figs, dates, raisins and candied fruit
By weight

Dried fruit

Apricots, mango, figs, dates, cashews: take the amount you need, not the amount in the bag.

The olive bar: tubs of green, black and purple olives, plain or marinated with peppers

Fine foods & groceries

An olive bar, jams, fruit juices, oils, plus the everyday basics: pasta, flour, milk… without a second shop.

Homemade

North African pastries

Chebakia, baklava, gazelle horns, makrout: made in-house, for tea time or when guests are coming.

What comes up most: the welcome, the quality, and the cheese counter.

A warm, smiling welcome, which is lovely! Very good quality produce. And a very good cheese counter too.

My favourite greengrocer: I always get a warm welcome with a smile, and I always leave with good produce. A proper local shop.
