Restaurants in Lille

The restaurants below have been grouped into three pricing categories:
Expensive (over €75)
Moderate (€25 to €75)
Cheap (up to €25)
These prices are for a three-course meal for one, including taxes and tip but not drinks.

Please note that most restaurants in Lille are closed on Sundays and Mondays, so call ahead to check.

L'Ecume des Mers

Price: Moderate

This restaurant specialises in seafood and fish. The monkfish with tarragon cream is excellent, and so is the aioli cod. Service can be a bit hit and miss. Good for business meetings, though, as there are several rooms for private dining.

Telephone: (03) 2054 9540

La Cave aux Fioles

Price: Moderate

La Cave aux Fioles is set in a romantic medieval building with a lovely décor (read bricks and beams, red upholstery and antique furniture). There is also an inner courtyard and jazz bar. The menu is strong on meat and Flemish specialities.

Telephone: (03) 2055 1843

Estaminet'T Rijsel

Price: Moderate

This cosy, rustic Flemish pub looks as if it hasn't changed in centuries. The great atmosphere might explain why the place is always packed. Try the poulet au maroilles (roast chicken smothered in a local cheese), the house speciality. Closed Sunday.

Telephone: (03) 2015 0159

Crêperie Beaurepaire

Price: Cheap

One of several good crêperies in Lille, this one has the added advantage of having a pleasant courtyard, ideal in summer. Good selection of savoury and sweet galettes and crêpes, and excellent Breton cider served in traditional bolée (cup).

Address: 1 rue Saint Etienne, Lille, France
Telephone: (03) 2054 6054

A l'Huitrière

Price: Expensive

Housed in a historic venue with stunning art deco dining room, this restaurant offers a creative take on Flemish recipes. Black tie waiters deliver impeccable service and a sommelier is on hand to help with the extensive wine list.

Address: 3 rue des Chats Bossus, Lille, France
