In an ideal location in the heart of the old town, this restaurant has three areas: the main dining room with a view into the kitchen, a pleasantly secluded terrace and Le Balcon de l'Odas, a private lounge with a view of the cathedral. Chef Suzanne Da Silva's resolutely seasonal cuisine boldly draws on her origins in the north of France and ingredients from Normandy's terroir: vegetables from a market gardener in the Eure, farmhouse cream, organic mushrooms from a local mushroom farm, bread made by a Meilleur Ouvrier de France in Rouen, and fish from nearby fish markets. She puts it all to go

A former Top Chef contestant, who hails from the South of France, has set up shop in this half-timbered house on Place de la Pucelle. In a contemporary bistro, which still boasts its period beams, the chef orchestrates an enticing lineup: squid tagliatelle, carbonara with guanciale; flame-licked horse mackerel, confit aubergines and pesto rosso; dark chocolate and praliné mousse, smoked fleur de sel, Espelette pepper and peanut ice cream. A savvy modern spin, seasonal ingredients and a more ambitious evening lineup set the scene.

In a cobbled lane opposite the church, Église St Maclou, a new gourmet haven awaits foodies in the historical heart of Rouen. Japanese chef Takahiro Oikawa, a devotee of French gastronomy, cooks up his brand of seasonal French cuisine, infused with Japanese accents. He crafts wonderfully vibrant no-nonsense dishes, such as pâté en croûte with confit octopus and yuzu, aubergine-miso dip, karaage-style veal sweetbreads, followed by silky custard tart for dessert: this chef has mastered every aspect of his art.

Between the River Seine and the cathedral, this restaurant sports a black and red geometrical design. The son of a market gardener with a passion for veg, the chef infuses his cuisine with flavours in the zeitgeist. He gives free rein to his imagination and creativity in a carte blanche menu: beetroot, hibiscus and smoked cream; seabass, Pontoise cabbage and a spicy hollandaise.

A stone's throw from Place du Vieux-Marché, this navy-blue shopfront catches the eye. A couple of industry professionals, Laure Touyre on the restaurant floor and Brice Legrand in the kitchen, specialise in accomplished modern cuisine. The streamlined menu focuses on just a few dishes, allowing the chef to cook market-fresh dishes using top-notch produce, such as line-caught meagre with carrots, white asparagus, yuzu and Normandy saffron – delicious and full of flavour. A contemporary bistro with a clear sense of identity; friendly, smiling service.

The chef, a local man, has come back home after clocking up some excellent experiences elsewhere in France. He prepares honest bistronomy dishes: poultry mousseline, herb biscuit and vegetable pickles; veal blanquette, crispy rice and thyme-lemon cream; baked apple douillon, tonka bean ice cream. There are two dining spaces to choose between: the first is a traditional bistro-style setting; the second is contemporary and cosier, with access to the terrace.
