le parvis de la treille - Lille

We fancied a drink when we were out walking and this clearly has a sign outside saying Restaurant/Bar and as it looked quite nice and had lots of free tables we decided to give it a tryAfter being seated and left with a menu for a few minutes by a male member of staff we were approached by a blonde waitress to take our order As we ordered our drinks she then asked what we wanted to eat - "nothing thank you - just a drink please" was my partners response. At this point she physically snatched the menu out of his hands and stated shouting "non!" loudly and aggressively to the point that every other customer turned to look. She then proceeded again shouting we must eat and then aggressively pointing at the doorVery odd considering the male staff member who seated us had responded "oui, oui!" when my partner said upon us entering that we only wanted a drinkSuch a poor experience and awful impression to give from an establishment that was less than 1/2 full at 12:15 on a Friday - did the 20 mins we intended to be there for a refreshing beer on our walk really have warranted this reaction? I think not ...

Busy bar. Seating area outside all full....popular area. We sat inside. Good choice of beers. Pricey, but typical for France

Tres Bon- this place far exceeded my grasp of French . Location is ideal for people watching and the church over the way is very modern and thought provoking.Food and service here was top class. Steaks and burgers were the choice of the day and all were very nice thank you!

We wandered past and had to stop after seeing the amazing food being served. The house special is chicken cous cous - a generous portion of cous cous with half a roast chicken and a vegetable stew - and it was delicious. Two servings of this plus teas, waters and soft drinks came to just €37 - an absolute bargain. Service was good and it's in a lovely quiet spot looking out onto the cathedral. Highly recommend a visit

After a night of footy & beer we needed a recharge and the house speciality provided it - couscous, chicken and veg stew. it was delicious and perfectly cooked. I'd come again....not even seen the bill yet but don't care
