Our favourite restaurant in Limoges. It's classy, welcoming and the food is delish!!!! May be a little pricey for those on a budget however there are several menus to choose from and the lowest around 20€ per person for three course lunch. NOTE it's a busy place and you normally have to book ahead and pay a 15€ pp deposit.

Jeff's Bar... For lunch! Found opposite the town centre car park. Look for bright yellow canopies. Cheap and cheerful and a great spot to enjoy lunch and watch the world go by. A 3 course menu (plat de jour) typically around 15€ pp. Get's super busy so recommend arriving around 12:30

For shopping and eating. Highly recommended Grand Frais for the best selection of fruit and vegetables plus spices and herbs from around the globe. Maya Café is a pleasent place to enjoy lunch with indoor and outdoor seating. Recommend Leroy Merlin and Bricoman for long-term clients looking to build or renovate property in the area.
