"Yesterday, back to the origins and really not disappointed. Congratulations to olive trees and her staff for this very nice moment that delighted us. To be found in a setting as familiar as this one has released us from the marasmus and the friendly atmosphere, an integral part of the Latin concept is present and allows discussions between tables (I love! Not to mention the phone call that literally put me on my ass! Fear to see that someone has taken over the latino torch and that he does it well Muchas gracias para todos y hasta la muy rapida proxima"

"We had visited the Canadian War Memorial and the associated guided tour. We then set off looking for a snack lunch. As we came into Avion we spotted the restaurant on the corner. We managed to park nearby. It was quite late for lunch but the proprietor was very accommodating and agreed to keep the kitchen open for us, unlike this country!The set menu which we were presented with was not what we were looking for although there were some lovely things to choose from on the menu. However on the chalk board behind us there were other choices. Two of us had large tiger prawns cooked with a type of risotto. The other two members of the party chose Ris de Veau, which they thought was veal with rice!! Not so, a big learning curve for them, it was actually sweetbreads in a cream and mushroom sauce! They said the dish was delicious, but had they known what they were choosing would not have made that choice!!! Sometimes it's best not to know!The staff couldn't understand a word of English and struggled to understand our French, but they had a good sense of humour. The bill was quite big as this is quite a classy restaurant. We wished that we hadn't already booked a table at another restaurant for the evening as the cote de boeuf looked fabulous. In all a good find."

"We wanted to eat in a restaurant offering regional dishes, we were delighted to fall on this small decor restaurant reminiscent of the mines and offering the most typical local dishes. Welcome and very pleasant staff. We ate an excellent home welsh obviously. Simple but very good! Anyway, nice little restaurant. (advised by 'home house Louvre Lens'"

"excellent coffee, warm and friendly welcome. the decoration is very neat and appreciable. estaminet policy is to be able to offer a place to discuss and be listened while enjoying good health products. The staff really listens to the customers. Moreover, the coffee is of very good quality (manufactured), just like juice and other products. prices are clearly affordable for the proposed quality. I recommend 100%, don't hesitate to make a tour. the team will welcome you with pleasure! ps : note that the other estaminet will celebrate its 10th anniversary on 21 May 2022 with concerts, animations, etc. do not hesitate to make a tour on this occasion!"

"Hotel located in the commercial area of Cora Lens. It is quiet, the rooms are well maintained (good mattresses) overlooking the swimming pool (we did not take advantage of it because it is in October), with a terrace equipped with a table and 2 chairs plus a ashtray for smokers... You have to ask for heating at the reception, which triggers it, because it was cold. The bathroom is correct, but there is a little light on the mirror. On television, not all of the advertised channels are present. The wifi is free and correct. For the restaurant, very good: lamb mice with an accompaniment adapted to seasonal vegetables...and a gourmet coffee very gourmet. The staff is in small care with the clientele. For a quiet stay, we'll be back."
