Banian Tissus et mercerie
About
Banian Tissus et mercerie, on Réunion, sits at 26 Av. Leconte de Lisle, Saint-Denis 97490, Reunión, a fabric and sewing shop in the island's northern capital. First-time visitors should expect a working mercerie rather than a tourist stop, with textiles and sewing supplies laid out for customers who come to buy by the metre. Its 4/5 rating from 91 reviews places it among the better-regarded shops of its kind in Saint-Denis.
The surrounding streets of the capital put it within reach of shoppers from Sainte-Marie and Saint-Paul, while the island's main road network links Saint-Denis to coastal towns such as Saint-Gilles-les-Bains, Saint-Leu and Saint-Pierre. Those travelling from the southern or western resorts can reach the capital by road, though the mountain route through Cilaos is slower. French is the official language of Réunion and Réunion Creole is spoken widely in daily life, so a few words of either help in shops.
The shop's website, maisonbanian.com, carries its details. Réunion lies in the cyclone belt, and the cyclone season runs from November to April, so visitors planning a trip around that window should keep an eye on forecasts.
The island's highlands hold endemic plants and birds, and its coastal waters have coral reefs, both worth a day away from the capital. For anyone in Saint-Denis with sewing to do, this fabric and mercerie shop is a practical stop.
