Compiègne has no shortage of cheap eateries , such as
À la Dernière Minute on place de la Gare and the crêperie La Bolée on rue St Martin. More rewarding
restaurants are the Bistrot de Flandre , 2 rue d'Amiens, and Le Bouchon at 5 rue St-Martin, a wine bar offering a lunch menu at €10.52 and
plats du jour for €7.32 (a glass of wine costs about €3.81). Le Lombard , a contemporary bar/brasserie on rue des Lombards, has a good range of gourmet salads which should please vegetarians.
For just a pastry and coffee, try Les Muscadines , 1
rue Solférino, just by the bridge, which has a relaxing atmosphere and
magazines to browse through. On Saturdays, there's a big all-day market in the square by place de
l'Hôtel-de-Ville.
