La Bottega Épicerie: the exceptional Italian delicatessen in Lille
La Bottega Épicerie has been a Lille institution since 1997, founded by Lorena and Gilberto D'Annunzio. Located in Vieux-Lille, it offers a selection of fine and rare products sourced directly from small Italian producers, as well as homemade creations from its laboratory and kitchen garden.
Demanding selection and handcrafted products
The grocery store offers a refined selection of olive oils, cured meats, cheeses, pasta, sauces, preserves, antipasti and organic wines. Products are rigorously chosen for their quality, authenticity and traceability, often from organic or artisanal production. Since 2020, the company has also been producing its mozzarella and ricotta on site, and making its own fresh pasta.
On-site manufacturing and local production
The integrated laboratory produces fresh pasta, mozzarella, desserts and delicatessen dishes. The Bondues vegetable garden contributes to the supply of organic vegetables, ensuring a short supply chain and optimal freshness. In this way, the grocery combines traditional know-how with the highest standards of taste.
A warm place for quality
Located on rue de la Monnaie, the grocery store stands out for its friendly atmosphere, well-appointed space and attractive window display. It attracts a loyal clientele, a mix of locals, tourists, students and professionals, seduced by the rarity of the products, the warm welcome and the authenticity of the place.
