One area where Americans often struggle to find the best options is in healthy food products. The excessive use of GMOs, preservatives, and particularly the high levels of added fats and sugars, often render food products both flavorless and unhealthy—even in stores reputed for quality.
Many Americans have expressed their frustration to us, especially after returning from countries with different standards, such as those in Europe, and they wonder why they can't access the same quality of food at home.
Having moved from France to California in 2023, we have established strong connections within the active French community in California's food industry. This has allowed us access to products that not only meet but exceed the standards that Americans seek, including some considered the best in the world. These products are usually favored by the finest restaurants in both Europe and America, including those awarded Michelin stars. At The French Pantry, we guide you to these exceptional products—sourced mostly from Europe and some from California.
To our knowledge, this is the only retail outlet with such a specialized focus on the West Coast.
You can visit us at the farmers markets or place an order online.
We strive to source directly from producers whenever possible to ensure freshness and the best prices.
