Félicie

Restaurant€€387 m

In an artfully distressed, industrial-style decor of waxed concrete, bare bricks and square tables made out of unglazed iron and wood, a youthful, enthusiastic team runs this establishment in the suburbs of Lille. Deftly crafted, market-fresh cuisine at bargain prices and fish of flawless freshness seeing as it comes from their own fishing boat. Fresh produce and impressive culinary talent set the scene in Félicie’s felicitous establishment.

Ginko

Restaurant★ Michelin€€€Veg4.2 km

Near the Grand’Place, this unobtrusive eatery with a glazed facade is the brainchild of two pals, both of whom boast virtuoso CVs: Valentina Giacobbe was born in Italy and grew up in Asia, graduated in political science before she turned to cooking, training at Gaya with Pierre Gagnaire before working at Rozo and then at SOlange; and Julien Ingaud-Jaubert, who trained as a pastry chef and who has also worked in top establishments (Pierre Gagnaire, Meurin, La Laiterie). Their trendy venue is the picture of a sleek contemporary bistro complete with a red-brick wall, a tribute to Lille. Valentina

Pureté

Restaurant★ Michelin€€€4.7 km

In the heart of historic Lille, Gérald Guille plies his trade in an attractive long narrow dining room with an open kitchen. "Pure" materials (earthenware, concrete, wood, leather) create a focused, tranquil atmosphere, mirroring the style of the chef, who delivers, in his own words, "creative, uninhibited food" that is rich in personality and flavour. He slaloms between invention and classicism over the course of subtly balanced tasting menus: trout, beetroot, bloody orange and sage; scallops, leeks, mimolette and limequat; fingered citron, honey and saffron…

Le Restaurant du Cerisier

Restaurant★ Michelin€€€€4.9 km

On the first floor of a striking, ultra-contemporary building in the heart of Lille, the painstaking work of Guillaume Barengo and his on-the-ball team can be admired in the open kitchen. The chef with a star-studded CV crafts a single set menu that shines the spotlight on cherry-picked seasonal ingredients. A few examples: red mullet, millefeuille of Jerusalem artichoke and pear, walnuts and beer; venison steak, cooked rare for maximum tenderness and aroma, flanked by lardo di Colonnata, butternut squash, quince and chestnut purées, all of which coated in a gutsy peppery sauce.

SOlange

Restaurant€€2.1 km

Slightly out of the bustling city centre, you can look forward to inventive, soul-warming dishes made with local ingredients, most of which sourced from small producers, and a menu that changes weekly. Daring combinations and lip-smacking recipes such as squid marinated in sesame and different textures of butternut or rack of pork, pumpkin and cream of sweetcorn…

La Laiterie

Restaurant€€€3.2 km

Once a dairy, this farmhouse steeped in history lies next to the Parc de la Citadelle and close to the banks of the Deûle Canal. Elegant contemporary rooms inside and a large garden with a terrace are the perfect foil for the chef's creative cuisine, which delves freely into produce from Northern France, with a fondness for surf and turf recipes.

Limpide

Restaurant€€€3.3 km

Previously home to Empreinte, Limpide has retained its predecessor's pared-back aesthetic. The small dining area is bathed in light thanks to large windows with antique stained glass depicting the art of brewing. At the helm, young chef Karl Widmer (who trained in the kitchens of Le Val d'Auge, Yannick Alléno and Damien Laforce) cooks up personal cuisine with principles, as evidenced by a wealth of details on the plate. But this chef also likes to keep things simple, as illustrated by his monkfish in barigoule, delicate white butter sauce and tender little pieces of artichoke heart in parsley.

Sébastopol

Restaurant€€3.7 km

This small eatery, just opposite the Sébastopol Theatre, is something of a landmark of Lille. The chef concocts a concise menu and a tasting menu that change regularly in line with the seasons and are strewn with personal touches. The emphasis is on generous, wholesome fare, like seared scallops from Boulogne, roast artichokes, free-range pork belly, a tangy purée of red cabbage and apple jelly. Buzzy vibe and slick yet unstarched service.
