Christmas shopping in Lille


Patisserie Meert is far more than a regular patisserie, it's an institute! Founded in 1761, the shop and tea room in the rue Esquermoise still serves refined pastries to the gentry of France and Belgium.
Even Leopold I, first king of Belgium, became one of their most illustrious customers.
