Maison Papillon sur Lille

First experience eating lunch there. Very good value for money for the sandwich, drink, and dessert deal.

Very tasty croissants and cookies

Food and atmosphere more than good. I will come back here next time I am in Lille.

I came here for lunch with a group of friends and am so happy I did! This was a perfect place to stop while we were on our way to La Grand Place. The boulangerie served what you would expect-variety of sandwiches, toasts, pasta dishes, quiche, and plenty of pastry options. They had a wonderful selection and I knew it was going to be great the second we walked in. Ordering is super simple and the service was good. They women working there did speak some English and we were able to communicate our order to them. The inside is very clean and I really appreciated the aesthetic of the eatery. They offer several floors to eat on too. I ended up ordering a salmon-avocado toast. I knew immediately that I wanted to order it when I saw it in the display case. The toast included smoked salmon on one side, a small salad with avocado slices in the center, and a jammy hard boiled egg on the other side. This all was atop of thick piece of rustic French bread. The bread also had some sort of sun-dried tomato spread on it, which was fantastic. I really loved the presentation of the toast, almost felt guilty cutting into it! It was so fresh and full of so much flavor. The avocado was extremely smooth, the salmon perfectly fatty, and the egg cooked just right. The sun-dried tomato spread tied the whole thing together. And of course the bread was amazing as well. Overall, I really enjoyed my meal here. I left full and very satisfied with the experience. My salmon-avocado toast was perfect in every which way. Every component of it was very fresh too. If you need a quick bite and are in the area, this is a great place to stop!

Excellent bread-making facility and the staff are welcoming.

There was no proper way to tell who needed to order and who had already been served. They had one option for milk, no oatmeal. While one server (blond hair was polite), the brown haired server, was not as attentive. I say this because she called someone in line before me, and I was clearly in line.

Good traditional baguette. However, the ceiling ventilation was very dirty!

Sweet or savory breakfast options are available! I recommend it for its selection and quality. Purchase: A very good quality vegetable omelet made on-site. Friendly and welcoming staff.

Ample seating upstairs. All of the food looked great. I had a Bolognese panini that they heated up for me and the staff were very friendly.

Beware, the (good) pistachio raspberry cake...is not raspberry-flavored, but only pistachio-flavored...
