Food Scene

55 Rue de l'HôpitalDelicious salad bar!!
One of my favorite restaurants in Rouen. A gourmet French bistrot with a nice ambiance at Place du Vieux Marche. They can make a good vegetarian plate but
it's not on their menu so you have to ask.

A traditional French bistrot. The house speciality is "gratins". It's an oven-baked dish with melted cheese on the top. They make a vegetarian one as well.

Very good French cuisine by Rouen's 2-star Michelin chef Gilles Tournadre (but much more affordable than at the actual 2-star restaurant). They can make a vegetarian dish on request.
