Be Yourself - Lille

Lots of choice, from pastries to pancakes to healthier options. Good quality (not greasy or fatty - bacon was good) and decent portions. Relaxed atmosphere, with some limited outside seating though this is on the pavement so we had issues with prams and buggies trying to get past.

Brunch time! We got a regular brunch and an XL one for 30 eur and it was awesome. Lately it's hard to finish a brunch without feeling hungry 1 hour later.Here you get a hot drink, a pastry or half a baguette with butter/nutella/etc, a yoghourt, an orange juice and then either a bagel with scrambled eggs, bacon and salad or pancakes with syrup (the XL includes both options). The quality is good, the service is nice (part of it is self service though) and they have a corner where they make their own pastries and cakes - loved it!You will be full until late dinner, guaranteed!

Great for breakfast or in fact anything. Had breakfast a couple of times. Everything fresh and homemade, delicious could have gone on and on eating.

Nice and cozy place, good and interesting menus for brunches/bagels/pancakes freshly made!! Everything is fresh and tasty! Had the eggs and bacon with orange juice, coffee and croissant.... More than enough to eat for 13eu total!! Very nice place for brunches in Lille

Needed a substantial and quick breakfast before a trip out of town and stopped in (just a few feet from the hotel) when they opened at 8:30 am. Thought we would grab one of their famous bagel sandwiches only to find they are only available for lunch (unlike our North American expectations). None the less, they did offer a very limited menu which included bacon and eggs which we opted for. The breakfast came with baguette a tiny salad and a dollop of coleslaw which was surprisingly good even in the am.Together with an excellent cafe creme, we had a rather filling, satisfying and well priced breakfast.Only knock is a lack of selection before lunch. I can see how this is a popular lunch spot. I recommend it.
