Elizabeth's — Restaurant in Lille

Elizabeth's tea room is the place where I hang out with myself the most. I love the place and there are many reasons for it.

One, it is an english tea room, so I feel comfortable to speak English without any hesitation.

Worth it...

If you want to get kick out by one of the workers right after you pay for a drink and pastry, and for sitting by yourself at the only table available because "there is a huge crowd" coming into the coffee shop, I would definitely recommend this place then! This claim was completely false, taken the fact that no huge crowds went in and right as she had finish saying that a large group of people had just left. To me this was unacceptable and straight up racist, I am a person of color, and was caused by a couple because I had asked them if one of them could move their coat which was simply resting on one of the chairs.
