About

Bar Parallèle et Falafel is a hybrid venue combining a lively bar and casual restaurant in Vieux-Lille. Founded by Ouri and his sister Tamar, a professional chef, it serves multicultural cuisine blending Middle Eastern and Eastern European influences. Homemade falafels, prepared from family recipes, are the signature specialty, served in pitas with fresh fries, hummus, eggplant caviar, schnitzels, and shawarmas. The menu also features mezze platters, shakshuka, and Israeli salads. Beverages include draft beers, classic cocktails, and house-made arak limonana. Eastern European and Ashkenazi desserts round out the offer. The relaxed atmosphere features a street-side terrace and mezzanine seating, with live music programming (concerts and DJ sets) in the evenings.

  • “Un des bars à grignoter préférés des Lillois avec de bons falafels et des influences orientales et occidentales : c’est le Bar Parallèle et Falafel. Un endroit ouvert où tu peux venir manger un morceau ou boire un verre, midi comme soir, jusque très tard.”

  • “Rien, pas même la crise sanitaire n’a empêché Tamar Vincenzi-Letko de réaliser un de ses projets les plus chers, ouvrir un restaurant où elle cuisinerait les recettes de ses grands-mères et de sa mère. Le rêve se réalise au bar Parallèle et Falafel, dans le Vieux-Lille.”
