La Petite Table sur Lille

17/02/2026: The welcome was warm, the restaurant was lovely, and the food was delicious. It's the North, after all...

17/02/2026: I discovered L’Estaminet Au Vieux De La Vieille in Lille, and it’s definitely a must-visit for experiencing authentic Northern French cuisine. Located in Vieux-Lille, the setting is typical and authentic, with a warm decor reminiscent of Flemish traditions. From the moment you arrive, the welcome is friendly and welcoming. The team is professional, dynamic, and very attentive to service. You can feel the real organization, even when the restaurant is full. As for the food, it’s a real treat. The regional specialties are generous and flavorful: Welsh rarebit, Flemish carbonnade, local dishes… everything is prepared with care and respect for traditional recipes. The portions are substantial, and the value for money is excellent. The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, perfect for a meal with friends or family, or for introducing visitors to Lille’s gastronomy. For its authenticity, the quality of its dishes, the professionalism of its service, and the typical atmosphere of Old Lille, L’Estaminet Au Vieux De La Vieille is clearly one of the best restaurants in Lille. I highly recommend it.
