When guests stay at Mas Saint Antoine, we love pointing them towards places with a soul.

Here is why this lovely shop is worth a stop during your holiday.

  • Open Tuesday to Saturday, with fresh-basket pick-up on Tuesdays and Fridays.

What is L’Épicurienne Locale?

L’Épicurienne Locale is a grocery unlike the others, created by Flavia. The idea: to gather in one place the best of the region’s producers and artisans, in a warm and friendly atmosphere. It is the perfect address to leave with good local products, far from the standardised aisles of supermarkets.

The shop blends two worlds. On one side, the grocery: dry local products available all the time, chosen for their quality, and fresh products offered to order to guarantee freshness and avoid waste. On the other, a space dedicated to local creation, where jewellery, textiles, ceramics, wrought-iron objects, furniture and cosmetics each tell a story of local know-how.

Where is L’Épicurienne Locale, and how far from the Mas?

The shop is at 15 rue Frédéric Mistral, 07700 Bourg-Saint-Andéol, in the centre of town. From Mas Saint Antoine, allow about 5 minutes by car: it is one of the easiest addresses to add to a stroll through the old town, between a heritage visit and a coffee on a terrace.

As with any independent shop, a quick call before you visit (+33 6 89 86 14 64) helps confirm a product’s availability or place an order.

A lively place, not just a shop

What sets L’Épicurienne Locale apart is that there is always something going on. The shop hosts events and workshops around taste and craftsmanship, tastings of wines and artisan drinks, and meetings with the region’s producers and makers. It is a chance to discover the behind-the-scenes of their work and to leave with real finds.

For holidaymakers seeking authenticity, this is exactly the kind of experience that adds flavour to a stay: you do not just buy a product, you meet the people who make it.

Why choose local shops during your holiday?

  1. Quality and taste: seasonal products, often grown or made just a few kilometres away.
  2. Support for the local economy: buying from a producer or artisan directly supports the area welcoming you.
  3. The encounters: a tip, a story, a recipe — the welcome of an independent shop is nothing like an anonymous checkout.
  4. Souvenirs to bring home: a local artisan’s creation makes a far more personal gift than a mass-produced object.

When to enjoy L’Épicurienne Locale during your stay?

In high season (July-August), the shop is perfect for putting together your meals with good fresh products and avoiding crowded supermarkets. But it is also a great idea off-season: during a spring or autumn weekend at the Mas, with friends or as a group, a gourmet stop at L’Épicurienne Locale and a tasting of local wines beautifully round off a visit to Bourg-Saint-Andéol, when the village regains its calm and authenticity.
