Most Popular Hotels in Lille:
1 Rue De Fouquieres, 62199
83 Avenue Willy Brandt, 59777
224 Rue De Paris, 59000
17 Quai De Wault, 59027
In the Old Town, narrow winding cobblestoned streets hide tiny boutiques in old Flemish houses around the rue de la Monnaie.
For classic designer names, head for the rue de la Grande Chaussée, in the centre of town, with big names like Louis Vuitton, Hermes and Lacoste.
Gourmet fare can be found at Philippe Olivier, 3 rue du Cure St Etienne, one of France's most famous cheese shops. A stop at Meert, on rue Esquermoise, is compulsory: here you will find exquisite waffles and other delicious pastries.
Several markets take place in Lille. The two most interesting ones are on place du Concert, an excellent, bustling food market in Lille's Old Town on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays, and the daily book market in the Vieille Bourse (Old Stock Exchange) courtyard.
Don't miss Euralille, a huge modern shopping complex located between the two train stations (see Key Attractions). And bear in mind that Lille (in common with most other French cities) keeps old-fashioned opening hours: most shops are closed on Sundays.
