If so are the prices v.high ? i know that the petrol station at the santa fe sell fruit but apparantly they charge silly money....by the way...........we go next week ! whhooooooooooo :banana:

I think the station does sell some fruit but can't help with the prices.
It will most definitely be cheaper than buying it from the carts in the park :)

The station does sell fresh fruit...again no idea on prices. My advice would be to take 2 hours out of your stay to visit Val d'Europe which is only one stop away on the RER from the train station at DLRP. You'll get much better quality and far cheaper prices there than you ever would on-site.

we were there last week and checked out the food in the train station. It was 1 euro for an apple. You could get the bus for the hotel l'elysee and go to the auchen supermarket for sandwiches, pasta salad, and fruit. Think it was between 2 & 3 euros for a sandwich

How are you travelling there? if you are driving then maybe it would be easier to take some with you. Failing that then Auchan is the place to go:thumbsup2

Pre-packed sarnies at Auchan start from 1 euro 50 cents and they often have special offers on thier own brand ones if you buy 5 :thumbsup2

I plan on making very good use of them next week :goodvibes

great advice...thanks. :thumbsup2

we're going by eurostar and aim to take as much food for packed lunches as possible but obvoiusly have limited space in the suitcases so i think the supermarket sounds the best option
