Romantic dinner in the Saint-Nicolas district

Let yourself be seduced by the romantic charm of a district of the city where you’ll be welcomed by a group of friends, experts in joie de vivre and conviviality… all year round!

With its charming little streets that invite you to relax, you’ll take the time to drink a local beer on the terrace, enjoy the concerts that take place in the street in the summer (when the cold sets in, just push open the door of Camel à Léon), contemplate the cherry blossom trees that line the square or enjoy a “healthy” meal in front of the sublime Square Saint-Géry and its church.

Did you know?

Le Petit Béret organizes concerts, DJ evenings and “Fiesta Cubana” evenings, where you can learn salsa or just enjoy the atmosphere, every second Thursday of the month (the managers will simply ask you to take at least one drink, including for the introductions).

It’s from the glass roof of the Italian restaurant ” Via Ristorante ” that we invite you to experience the simple pleasure of a moment for two: the subdued lighting is conducive to rediscovering yourself in a different light, the refined cuisine immerses you in the gentle pace of life in Valenciennes (“La Dolce Vita Valenciennoise”), and the outdoor show won’t leave you wanting for anything else, with its magnificent view of theauditorium and theformer 17th-centuryJesuit college

To extend your escapade, let yourself be guided by the “blue moon”, blue lanterns made of blown glass, which adorn the street and trace a light trail along which you’ll discover works by Valenciennes artists projected by a play of lights on certain facades.

A contemplative stroll to discover the beauty and soul of Valenciennes.
