Your best option here is to simply walk from Porte de Versailles down Rue Ernest Renan direction Mairie d’Issy Les Moulineaux.
Shortly after you cross the tram, the street is lined up with stores, restaurants, and bars. Walk until the Mairie d’Issy-les-Moulineaux and find a little new shopping promenade called Issy Cœur de Ville on your right side.
You have the usual shops like Starbucks, Mango and Rituals, but also some great stores to buy French delicatessen foods. For example, Fauchon. But also some restaurants and cafés.
