Because the town isn’t much of a tourist hotspot the prices tend to be geared towards the local market - whether this will be true during the tournament remains to be seen. **L’atelier de Marc Meurin** (97 rue Paul Bert) is one of the priciest (but best) restaurants in the city, and handy if you’re visiting Louvre-Lens.. The 3 course Menu du Jour will set you back around €32 for lunch or €56 for dinner, but it gets rave reviews. **Le Pain de la Bouche** (31 bis rue de la Gare) is a small, traditional restaurant offering local specialities and French dishes. **O Mexicain** (62 rue de la Gare) offers good grub at around €15 for mains and €7 for starters. Set menus including a main, a drink and a dessert (along with a tequila, naturally) will set you back €26. **L’Etiquette** (118 Boulevard Basly) is primarily an easy-going wine bar that offers good food options alongside a good selection of wine by the glass. Steaks are served on grilled stones, whlie there are also pasta and cold meat selections. **Le Nibbling** (3 rue Jean Baptiste Kieber) is a reasonably priced lounge bar/restaurant that offers brunch and lunch, along with cocktails. It’s open for evening meals Wednesday through to Saturday. As for drinking, we’d expect the **Irish Tavern** to do a roaring trade on matchdays. A brewery and restaurant set over two floors, it offers typical local food and drink, as well as pub grub. Located at 6 Avenue Raoul Briquet, 5 minutes walk north of the main Place Jean Jaures, it’s handily located next door to **Pub MacEwans** - another watering hole with a more limited selection of food but a great range of beers.
