Restaurants in Reims

Choose dinner around your Reims day

The cathedral cluster includes Café du Palais on Place Myron Herrick, La Grande Georgette on rue Tronsson-Ducoudray and Arbane on rue Noël. Place Drouet-d’Erlon supplies the brasserie-and-bar combination of Excelsior, Continental and The Glue Pot. For a meal around the southern Champagne-house quarter, put Le Jardin or Le Parc Les Crayères beside your Saint-Nicaise plans; Le Saint-Remi sits on Esplanade Fléchambault by the basilica.

Michelin’s relative spending bands appear below as €€, €€€ and €€€€: they are guide categories, not the price of a fixed meal. Named euro amounts come from the restaurant’s menu unless explicitly attributed to the tourist office. Champagne, service choices and extra courses can change the bill; Arbane, Racine and Continental publish separate menus or pairings that make the distinction visible before you reserve.

Cathedral and the old centre

Café du Palais — an Art Deco lunch

14 place Myron Herrick. This bistro has been part of Reims since 1930, beneath an Art Deco glass roof by Jacques Simon. Its own site promises bistro cooking, wines by the glass and a substantial Champagne list. Choose it for the room as much as the meal: a cathedral day need not end in a hotel dining room. The official website has a Menu tab and online table reservations: choose the bistro menu and ask for its tariff when booking. Menu and reservations at Café du Palais.

La Grande Georgette — face the cathedral

18 rue Tronsson-Ducoudray. Chef Julien Raphanel cooks at La Caserne Chanzy, the former fire station dating from 1926. The terrace faces the cathedral, making the setting a specific reason to book here. Michelin places the modern cooking in its €€€ band (checked October 2026). Ask for the seasonal menu and its price through the hotel’s restaurant booking service; the Michelin review describes dishes from its restaurant assessment. The restaurant supplies the menu for your October booking. The neighbouring Little Georgette is the same address’s more informal bistronomic option. La Caserne Chanzy restaurants.

Arbane — Philippe Mille’s Champagne-inspired table

7 rue Noël. Philippe Mille’s two-Michelin-star restaurant occupies an 1874 mansion. Its five-sequence L’âme de la Champagne menu is €190, while the plant-led Expression végétale is €150 (checked October 2026). The published menus include cauliflower with shellfish on the former and courgette flower with fennel on the latter; choose the named sequence when reserving.

Racine — an intimate tasting-menu evening

6 place Godinot. Kazuyuki Tanaka’s two-Michelin-star Racine combines French cooking with Japanese technique in a small dining room looking towards a Japanese garden.

Le Millénaire — a modern table near Place Royale

4–6 rue Bertin. Benjamin Andreux leads this restaurant in the old centre. Michelin describes creative, modern cooking with a particular emphasis on seafood and assigns its €€€€ spending band (checked October 2026). For a seafood-led celebration dinner, use Le Millénaire’s own menu and reservation route to select the current format and quote; individual fish dishes move with the kitchen’s seasonal menu. Its rue Bertin address also keeps dinner in the central cathedral-and-Place-Royale part of town, separate from the Champagne-house restaurants around Saint-Nicaise. Le Millénaire menus and reservations.

Le Coq Rouge — wine and French tapas

67 rue Chanzy. Established in 2012, Le Coq Rouge pairs a wine-and-Champagne list with French tapas and shared plates. Its own description stresses independent winegrowers, making this a useful address for carrying a grower-Champagne day into the evening. Order from the plates and glass list offered on the night; the official site did not supply a reliable current numeric tariff for this guide. The rue Chanzy location puts it in the cathedral-side bar selection, while its shared-plate format gives a different evening from Racine’s fixed sequences. Le Coq Rouge Reims.

Place Drouet-d’Erlon and the station side

Brasserie Excelsior — the classic brasserie choice

96 place Drouet-d’Erlon. Excelsior publishes a three-course Menu Brasserie at €36, excluding drinks (checked October 2026).

The two-course Menu Garçon is €28 (checked October 2026), with exclusions for Friday evening, weekends and public holidays. Choose the €36 format for a weekend dinner budget and reserve directly with Excelsior. Excelsior menus and booking.

Continental Restaurant — regional ingredients beside the square

95 place Drouet-d’Erlon. The Continental’s published menu offers veal kidneys deglazed with Ratafia, baby potatoes and grapes at €27, and duck foie gras with Ratafia and onion confit at €19 (checked October 2026). These are concrete local-flavour choices for anyone wanting more than another glass of Champagne. The Chef’s Menu is €35, the Continental Menu €55 and the six-dish tasting menu €90 (checked October 2026). Its drinks menu also lists the alcohol-free Apple Sparkle at €7 (checked October 2026), so a non-drinker has a named option. Continental food and drink menus.

On Friday and Saturday it advertises food until 23:30, useful after a later arrival into Reims.

Le Foch — seafood on the Promenades

37 boulevard Foch. Jacky Louazé’s restaurant sits on the Promenades side of the centre. Michelin identifies seafood as a strength and places it in the €€€ spending band (checked October 2026). Book Le Foch for the kitchen’s seafood-led menu and request the current courses and tariff through its official reservation contact. This is a separate address from the restaurants actually on Place Drouet-d’Erlon; use boulevard Foch on the reservation and your route home. Le Foch official website.

Forum and Boulingrin: market lunch and Champagne bars

Start with the by-the-glass list if you want to compare a single pour with the wines tasted during a house visit; select food from its own eating menu. The venue supplies downloadable lists on its website, so use the current versions for individual cuvées and prices. This is the Reims Wine Bar by Le Vintage, distinct from Le Vintage at 15 rue Saint-Thibault in Épernay. Le Wine Bar’s food and glass lists.

Halles du Boulingrin and biscuits roses

The City of Reims lists the Halles du Boulingrin food market on Friday 07:00–13:00 and Saturday 06:00–14:00. Build the market stop into one of those mornings; the covered hall is a different outing from a reserved table at the Brasserie du Boulingrin. The city’s Halles page is the source for these days, which supersede older tourism listings circulating online.

For the edible souvenir, Maison Fossier’s city-centre shop is at 25 cours Jean-Baptiste Langlet. Its biscuits roses are the Reims speciality to look for; croquignoles and other biscuits broaden the choice. The biscuit factory has a separate address, 20 rue Maurice Prévoteau, and a guided visit described by Châlons Tourist Office as one hour. A purchase in the central shop and a factory tour are separate plans, so book the latter through Fossier if it belongs on your itinerary.
