The Lille gastronomy is brought to life with the Bloempot restaurant, led by the talented Florent Ladeyn. Currently under renovation, this iconic address is transforming into a nomadic concept as of January 22, 2025, setting up between Lambersart and Lille. A great opportunity to rediscover Flemish cuisine while respecting the values of the local terroir, in an enchanting natural setting!
Why is the Bloempot restaurant changing its address?
Since January 22, 2025, the Bloempot restaurant, managed by chef Florent Ladeyn, has temporarily relocated to a different setting. This move is motivated by the significant renovations taking place at its usual establishment, located on Rue des Bouchers in Lille. After delighting the palates of numerous customers for nearly eleven years, the need to modernize its space became apparent. The management has therefore chosen to carry out this transition to maintain the continuity of the customer experience while reinventing itself.
The new temporary venue is situated in a green setting, between Lambersart and Lille, inside the restaurant Les Toquées. This approach, dubbed “exclusive pop-up,” aims to offer regulars and new customers a renewed culinary experience while respecting the Flemish roots of Bloempot’s cuisine. This temporary period is therefore an opportunity not only to introduce a wider audience to dishes inspired by the local terroir but also to pay homage to a rich and authentic culinary heritage.
What dishes can be enjoyed at the nomadic Bloempot?
In this new version, the Bloempot team is committed to not only preparing classics of French cuisine but also to enhancing them with 100% local ingredients. Customers can expect dishes such as:
- Stuffed cabbage
- Squab from Flanders
- Scallops from our coast
- Roots from local growers
Each dish is crafted with care, showcasing the richness of products available in the Flemish terroir. The goal of this cuisine is to delight diners by offering authentic flavors while respecting the environment. The green setting, close to the Deûle, adds a pleasant and calming dimension to this experience, allowing diners to savor each dish while surrounded by nature.
What are the hours and prices of the temporary Bloempot?
At the moment, Bloempot is open every day from Monday noon to Sunday noon. This allows customers to enjoy different options tailored to their desires. Prices are clearly established: a tasting menu at €80 in the evening, as well as on Saturdays and Sundays at noon. For lunch from Monday to Friday, the €40 lunch menu is a highly appreciated alternative.
Reservations can be made directly on the official Bloempot website. Here are some practical elements to keep in mind:

What is the atmosphere of the Bloempot restaurant at its new address?
The new address of Bloempot has been carefully chosen to create a warm and friendly atmosphere. Customers can expect a relaxed environment that favors interactions and shared enjoyment. As Florent Ladeyn expressed, his wish is to “warm hearts” by providing comforting dishes and an authentic experience in an environment that invites relaxation.
The setting between Lambersart and Lille, bathed in greenery, also plays a fundamental role in the overall experience.
