Tribb’s in T1 doubles as the Travel Essentials Store
In Perpignan’s T1, the Travel Essentials Store functionally is Tribb’s: same footprint, same counter, same shelves. It opens 06:00–22:00 Mon–Fri, 06:00–20:00 Sat, 09:30–19:00 Sun, and during those hours this is your only shot at food, water, or last‑minute basics once you’re airside.
You’ll find standard travel items rather than deep choice: small toiletries, basic over‑the‑counter painkillers, tissues, and a few plug adapters beside the snack racks. Prices sit in the typical French regional‑airport bracket — think supermarket price plus a couple of euros for bottled water or chips — and everything runs through the same till as the café/bar.
On the food side, expect packaged pastries, crisps, chocolate bars, and bottled drinks rather than hot meals; SleepingInAirports calls it the airport’s only dining option. If you want something more substantial than a croissant and a soda before a morning flight around 07:30, sort that out in town first.
Regulars on AirlineQuality say they bring their own snacks and a refillable bottle from Perpignan, then hit Tribb’s only for coffee or emergencies. That strategy makes sense given that outside the posted hours there is literally nowhere in the terminal to buy water, food, or even toothpaste.
Tip: check your flight time against the Travel Essentials Store/Tribb’s schedule; if you depart before 09:30 Sunday or land after 22:00 on a weekday, stock up in the city or at a supermarket first.
