La Vieille France sur Lille

A great find that was recommended to us the day before 😜😜😜😜 A real treat for the taste buds… A very attentive team 😊😊😊😊 I'll be back and I highly recommend this place 😋😋😋😋

The food wasn't "Wow." The Flemish carbonnade lacked flavor. The rest was okay. Sometimes good, sometimes less so. The decor was charming, and the waiter was very good!

Friendly and quick service. Lunch for 6, including 5 colleagues who were tourists, all very satisfied.

Traditional cuisine. Affordable prices. Pub atmosphere. Quick and friendly service. Remember to book online.

Go for it, it's a great little pub: the food is good, the waiters are super friendly, and the atmosphere is fantastic.

Absolutely top-notch, atmosphere, food, don't change a thing!

We're huge fans of this restaurant, we go back often and are never disappointed! The atmosphere is fantastic, the service is very friendly, and we enjoy a delicious meal every time. Thank you!

Excellent pub at very reasonable prices. Warm atmosphere, generous portions (delicious regional platter).

A great first experience at a traditional Lille pub. We'll remember the warm welcome, the service, and the entire meal. The prices are still a bit high.

I came with my family on December 23, 2025, on the recommendation of my brother who had reserved a table for six. The welcome was superb, even though the restaurant was busy. The waiter even kindly offered to bring us another chair if needed, as we weren't sure if someone else would arrive. With two separate rooms inside—one at the entrance and the other further back where we were seated—and a very specific atmosphere reminiscent of the traditional pubs of Northern France that we love, the space wasn't cramped and we could easily hear each other. Now, let's talk about the food. What can I say except that we thoroughly enjoyed the traditional dishes of Northern France, so well prepared. My father-in-law and his daughter, who came from the Périgord region, discovered specialties like Flemish carbonnade and Welsh rarebit, and they loved these dishes, which were still relatively new to them. I plan to return to this Flemish carbonnade, which was our favorite and a true delight, especially with the idea of ​​making it with gingerbread and brown sugar, combining sweet and savory flavors. The only issue I could point out was that there was a bit too much salt on the fries for my taste, but again, that's not really representative, as I myself don't usually add salt to my food. That said, these traditional Belgian fries were absolutely delicious. In any case, I wholeheartedly recommend this excellent restaurant; I can't wait to go back! Gauthier Hyard
