le Meunier sur Lille

09/09/2024: Overall, we had a nice experience here and the food was so good, I would return if I am in Lille again. The brunch selections here were excellent. We enjoyed the oeuf à la turque and the avocado toast (which we were able to order without the feta for a dairy free option). Plenty of vegetarian options, but if you need vegan, you will need to ask the staff after you order. The coffees were good too, and they offer oat milk options. The staff speak some English which was very helpful when my French failed me. The only issue was the service - you order through an app and while our order was confirmed, it apparently wasn't transmitted to the kitchen and we waited over an hour. It was clearly a fluke with the technology (other patrons were receiving their food quickly). The staff were responsive with the issue; my only regret is I should've brought it to their attention earlier.

08/09/2024: No service, you need to order food and pay using a QR code, quite pricey. Limited menu, dishes had good flavour - but all three dishes arrived lukewarm/cold. Poached eggs clearly pre made and stored, disappointing. There are much better places we found centrally with nicer dishes and bigger portions which actually arrive warm and with good service.
