The best places to eat in Dunkirk

Published on 26 September 2024

Like Dunkirk’s lively and friendly atmosphere, the gastronomy is generous and gourmet. Simple dishes that have made Nord famous, such as frites, fricadelle, waffles and Carbonnade Flamande, but also quality local produce, showcased in local restaurants. Far from presenting only the cuisine of great chefs, here is a selection of affordable eateries in Dunkirk to whet your appetite!

 

Princesse Elizabeth

 

Dine on the water in this English steamer paddle moored in Dunkirk. A former boat of Operation Dynamo, which was brought to life in the film Dunkirk, Princesse Elizabeth is a great place for tasting fresh produce through elaborate and delicate cuisine. The menu changes regularly and you can discover lobster ravioli, turbot or quail stuffed with veal sweetbreads. If you’re a dessert enthusiast, you’ll enjoy a crêpe Suzette or one of the other home-made treats on offer.

 

L’Estaminet Flamand

 

In this Dunkirk restaurant, where you can taste the very best of regional cuisine, such as Tarte au Maroilles or fricadelle-frites, you will be treated like a king. And don’t miss Flemish specialities like Le Welsh, Carbonnade Flamande (Flemish stew), poulet à la bière des Flandres (Flanders beer chicken) or Potjevleesch. L’Estaminet Flamand is certainly one of the best restaurants if you want to savour the local cuisine. And those with a sweet tooth can finish their meal with an ice cream in an unusual flavour: violet, chicory, gingerbread, etc.

 

La Cambuse

 

Located in the centre of Dunkirk, La Cambuse is a warm restaurant under the leadership of Christine and Jean-Bernard. Specialities include pan-fried scallops with endives, Carbonnade Flamande and home-made speculoos mousse. The menu changes with the seasons. The industrial décor and warm welcome complete the lively and friendly atmosphere of this restaurant.

 

Le P’tit Dunkerque

 

This 18-seat bistronomic restaurant revisits Dunkirk gastronomy with refinement, using fresh, quality produce. Paying homage to local produce and with a cosy atmosphere, this address is not to be missed. Discover a menu that changes with the seasons!
