Restaurant Salon de Thé Madeleine
At the entrance to Place Stanislas, on rue Héré, Madeleine blends a refined tea room with an all-day brasserie menu. An elegant haven for breakfast, a seasonal lunch or a Sunday brunch with a view over the royal square.
A tea room steps from Place Stanislas
It is hard to imagine a better address: Madeleine sits on rue Héré, the avenue that extends the World Heritage Place Stanislas. From 8 a.m. the house welcomes guests for breakfast in a warm, polished setting, where the charm of the room matches the quality of the produce. You settle in for a hot drink and a pastry, alone or as a pair, sheltered from the bustle. For a stay in Nancy, it is the perfect place to start the day just before discovering the city's finest square, only metres from the table.
Seasonal lunch and brasserie menu
At lunchtime, Madeleine offers gourmet, colourful plates prepared from fresh, seasonal produce. A soup of the moment, a perfect egg, entrecôte steak, generous salads or the award-winning Pâté Lorrain make up a menu that follows the seasons. A brasserie offering is also served throughout the day, for those arriving outside the usual hours. The spirit stays trendy and refined without being stiff: you enjoy serious cooking in an elegant setting. It is a reassuring address when you want to eat well right in the centre without searching for long.
Sunday brunch with a view
Every Sunday morning, Madeleine serves a brunch overlooking Place Stanislas, one of the finest views in the city to enjoy from a table. The set brunch brings together a pastry of your choice, a fruit salad, a hot dish and a dessert, for a morning that drifts gently into lunch. It is a favourite with locals and visitors alike, as much for the food as for the setting. Booking is strongly recommended, as seats are limited and demand is high at the weekend. For a traveller, it is a lovely way to live a Nancy Sunday at a leisurely pace.
