Top 5 Best Breweries in Dijon for Lunch Breaks

Homemade goodness, cozy vibes, and delicious dishes: here’s where you should settle down without a second thought.

1. Au Bureau: England arrives just a stone's throw from République

Want to feel like you're in a London pub without leaving Côte-d’Or? Head straight to Au Bureau, a brasserie that fully embraces British style, right down to the slightly rock’n’roll decor. But what really shines is the food! Hearty burgers, golden fish and chips, oversized salads, and sharing platters… there’s plenty to satisfy both light snackers and big appetites.

Here, it’s not just about great food; the atmosphere is also a big draw. Giant screen matches, themed nights, and happy hours on the terrace… At Au Bureau, lunch can quickly turn into the start of a fun evening (just don’t forget to get back to work).

2. Au Grand Café: Art Deco on Your Plate (and for Your Eyes)

If you're looking for a brasserie with style, you've come to the right place. At Au Grand Café, you’ll be mesmerized by the Art Deco decor that brings a touch of Parisian bistro flair. It’s a chic atmosphere without the fuss, where you can rock a suit and tie or opt for jeans and sneakers.

On your plate, enjoy **homemade** dishes that are full of Burgundy flavors, but with a lovely modern twist. Frog leg mousseline, homemade burger, colorful and creative plates: here, the classics get a fresh makeover. As a bonus, the terrace facing Galeries Lafayette lets you combine shopping with a delicious lunch break.

And to spice up the evenings with a musical touch, the establishment regularly hosts jazz, rock, or pop bands, keeping the guests entertained all the way to dessert and beyond!

3. L'Édito: a culinary journey with a vintage vibe

We're switching up the atmosphere but keeping the deliciousness! L'Édito is like a chameleon restaurant: with decor inspired by 1950s New York print shops, but dishes that stretch across Burgundy, Italy, and Asia. One lunchtime, you might indulge in a flammekueche; the next day, you could dive into a healthy bowl or a homemade pizza. And if you want to play it safe, the homemade burgers are there to comfort you.

The big bonus is the flexibility. Open 7 days a week, at lunch and dinner, L'Édito welcomes everything from quick lunch breaks to leisurely family dinners. The service is quick yet friendly, and the terrace at Place Darcy boasts an excellent location.

4. La Brasserie des Loges: Burgundy, my love

If you're looking for a true traditional brasserie that celebrates Burgundy without being pretentious, head over to La Brasserie des Loges. For the past 7 years, Hervé and his team have been delighting the people of Dijon with a 100% homemade cuisine, where every ingredient is thoughtfully sourced.

Eggs in meurette, beef cheek, parsley kidneys, or Gaston Gérard supreme… Here, you can savor the Burgundian tradition with a real sense of sharing. In the beautiful season, the terrace by the Place du Théâtre lets you enjoy the sunshine with a glass of local wine. And in winter? The homemade sauerkraut comes to the rescue to warm you up just right.

5. Bouillon Notre-Dame: great food without breaking the bank

Last but certainly not least: Bouillon Notre-Dame. If you're looking for delicious, simple, and affordable food, this is the place to be. This French-style bouillon, located right in front of the famous church, focuses on the classics of popular cuisine. Eggs mayo, leeks with vinaigrette, beef bourguignon, sausage and mash… Nothing too complicated, but everything is well-executed.

And the price? Super low, just like in any true bouillon. This is the dream canteen for those on a budget, without skimping on quality. Plus, the terrace right in the historic center immerses you in the Dijon vibe.

With this, there’s no excuse to munch on a sad triangle sandwich at lunchtime anymore. And if you're in the mood to travel through your meals... here it is: Eat around the 5 corners of the world without leaving Dijon: our best addresses! (link to be added)
