La Houblonniere sur Lille

Top notch staff and cuisine! We came this afternoon and had a great time, an address worth noting for a casual drink or a meal on the terrace in the center of Lille

We did a day trip to Lille, France from Rotterdam. We'are visiting Rotterdam and the surroundings for 8 days. After roaming around Lille's Center for 2.5 hours, started to feel hungry. We wanted to grab dinner at the center before heading back to Rotterdam. We decided to dine at La Houblonniere after reading their menu selections. So many delicious looking starters and entrees. Coming from a picky eater like me, that means a lot. We got the upstairs seating which was PERFECT, away from the crowds and noise. We ordered the stuffed mussels for our starter!/appetizer, they were soooo delish, I wanted to order 2nd. :) The stuffed mussels had bread crumbs with fried minced garlic, gave each bite a nice crunch and great garlic aroma. So yummy. For my entree I went with saulty crepe with bechamel sauce, gruyere, ham, and mushrooms. Each entree came with a side of fresh salad. The crepe was so tasty, the bechamel and gruyere together was such a good compliment, cheesy but not overpowering the ham flavor. The ham was not salty, and the mushrooms gave the dish a perfect texture. Highly recommend this dish. My husband got the braised beef in beer... Omg, it was so tasty. With the gravy sauce, you can taste the beer in gravy sauce. So flavorful. Next time we're in Lille for sure we will dine here again. I will order 2 orders of the stuffed mussels, the saulty crepe, braised beef, and mussels in white wine and chives dish to share with hubby. Lol, hahaha

I had a Welsh which was good without being exceptional, it was perhaps missing a little salad with the fries. Otherwise sufficient value for money.

Very good restaurant, I recommend. Super friendly servers. . A very good value for money .

The team is very friendly! Unfortunately the Welsh is not up to the task. There is almost no bread (and therefore mustard) and you don't taste the beer. It's more of a dish with cheddar fondue and an egg than a Welsh.

Excellent fried mussels. And what's more, the waitress offers you mayonnaise. I recommend.

What a joy it was to visit here for food and drink. Service was attentive and fast. I had the local beer and Le Welsh vegetarian version (I don't eat pork products). It was excellent! Finally I have a Le Welsh in Lille (OK, the vegetarian version). I'll be back!!

Pleasant atmosphere. Heartwarming welcome

Nice place. Good dishes, reasonable prices and a very friendly and attentive waitress
