De Rode Koe sur Lille

Great meal for a family with different dietary requirements. Some classic French dishes as well as wide range of vegetarian and vegan, salads and pastas. We were all made super welcome by the staff including a young child, and all meals on the menu can be served as a children’s/half portion. The man who served us spoke great English and also menu is available in English via QR code if needed.

Very friendly service, and the food was really tasty! Drank organic transparent cola for the first time! This was a pleasant surprise. The only downside to the atmosphere is that we sat by the window for a long time, and it was quite chilly, to be honest! But otherwise, it was really top-notch!

A fantastic place that I highly recommend. Excellent food and a very pleasant waitress. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal.

This was the first place I found when looking for decent veggie pieces to eat in Lille and I am so happy we did find it. We ate here twice while in Lille for a long weekend - the food was great and the atmosphere was buzzy and really welcoming. Lovely staff. Highly recommended.

Called in on a Sunday mid afternoon during a holiday. Delicious food, outstanding service and beautifully relaxed interior. Many thanks to the staff for switching so gracefully to English to help us order and take the time to tell us more about Lille - something that should never be taken for granted when you visit someone else’s country. Just a delightful establishment.

Really great place!! A delicious menu combined with super friendly service and a cozy atmosphere - loved it :)

I recently tried this place with friends... and I have to admit I'm really bothered by my review. Let's start with the good things: the decor was pleasant, and the service was truly excellent (friendly, attentive, and smiling waiters... kudos to them!). We ordered several things, including veggie burgers that looked good and, according to my friends, were. However, three of us ordered meat burgers... and how can I put this without being harsh? I think they were among the worst burgers I've ever eaten. The bun was okay, the cheese too, but the meat was incredibly strange: it was boiled, not grilled (as if the steak had been frozen), and it had a very unpleasant taste (I thought I was the only one who felt this way, but after discussing it, we all agreed). I almost stopped eating for fear of getting sick. To make matters worse, the burger is incredibly basic: it's just bread, cheese, meat, and tomato sauce. There are no onions, lettuce, or any other condiments... it's the bare minimum, and when you see it costs almost 20 euros, it stings! On the plus side: the fries are pretty good, and the portions are generous! Honestly, I'd almost be tempted to give it 1 or 2 stars (because that was my experience), but I don't want to damage the restaurant's reputation too much (which has excellent ratings) because my vegetarian friends' meal seemed very good, and the service was great too! In any case, for my part, I was very disappointed!

Thank you for the vegan options. The burger was delicious!

Service was amazing, the veggie dishes were really good. The burger was not great, the amount of passata was to much and the meat was lacking in flavor.

At first, I thought the restaurant was 100% vegetarian, but they also have meat and fish dishes. I had a wonderful meal! We often think that vegetarian restaurants serve light fare… That was definitely not the case with this amazing risotto, generously topped with goat cheese. A real treat! In short, you have to come and experience it for yourself!
