Stunning food and the most warm service. Highly recommend

Brigand represent the other side of Lille, the more modern, focused on biological cuisine, organic wines and with a relaxed atmosphere. It has a shared dining concept where 2/3 plates per person makes for a dinner. The menu is not big but it has just enough variety, the beef tataki is just wonderful and was our favorite. They offer also a charcuterie board and little desserts. Wine lists is strictly organic and biological but with a pretty nice range, prices are on the high side but worth the experience.

Fab food, fab atmosphere, friendly staff. Highly recommend. Our French is not so good so we ordered blindly and we were not disappointed. The main courses were delicious but the standout was the banoffee dessert.

A little gem downtown in Lille! The food is something else. You will instantly discover how exquisite their cuisine is. The atmosphere is calm and “old” with a sense of the true Lille life. I definitely recommend it!

People are friendly and really accommodating despite me knowing French. Food was excellent, full of flavour. Wine recommendations were perfect too.
