What to Eat in Nancy, France 🇫🇷 | Traditional Lorraine
Hey there fellow travelers!
Mark here with Wolters World, and today we’re talking about what to eat when you visit Nancy, one of France’s most underrated food cities and the heart of traditional Lorraine cuisine.
Nancy may be famous for its stunning Place Stanislas, but the local food scene is just as impressive. In this video, we break down the classic dishes, desserts, and local specialties you should absolutely try when visiting Nancy—whether you’re eating in a traditional restaurant, a bakery, or grabbing something quick while sightseeing.
We cover iconic foods from the Lorraine region, including:
Quiche Lorraine (and why the real version is simpler than you think)
Pâté Lorrain, a flaky meat-filled pastry locals love
Macarons de Nancy, a very different (and older) style of macaron
Bergamotes de Nancy, the city’s famous bergamot-flavored candies
Mirabelle plum desserts and liqueurs, a regional specialty you’ll see everywhere
We also talk about what to expect at local bakeries, cafés, and restaurants, how meal times work in Nancy, and what tourists should know about ordering, portions, and dining etiquette in eastern France. If you’re wondering what foods are truly local—and which ones are more tourist-focused—this video will help you eat better and more authentically.
Whether you’re planning a trip to Nancy, traveling through Grand Est, or looking to explore regional French food beyond Paris, this video will help you know exactly what to order so you don’t miss out on the best flavors the city has to offer.
