48 HOURS IN LILLE - ft. The 12 Best Restaurants & Bars (France's Unsung Hero)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 фев 2025
- We spent 48 Hours in France's beautiful Lille and we were blown away with what we found. Only an hour and a half from London on the Eurostar, you can walk everywhere, the locals are oh-so friendly, the food is glorious and, with Lille being 15km from Belgium, the beer is OUTSTANDING. Lille is generally cheaper than Paris in every way but no less romantic, stunning and delicious. | AD

So glad you’ve came to my city and loved it! You nailed it guys, as usual. You even manage to show me places I’ve never new existed, I’m going to visit them this week for sure! Cheers!
Ah that's awesome Bertille. Out of interest, which were the places you didn't know about?
@@topjaw Tamper!, Célestin and Juste un petit bout 👀
@@topjaware you coming to berlin aswell? I could help with research i know many really good spots
Je suis Lillois et tu m'as fait découvrir plein d'endroits que je ne connaissais pas .MERCI
idem j'allai faire ce commentaire avant de lire le tient. Awesome
thats like the first time ever that Jesse dislikes something. Haha, so it is possible…
Perfectly balanced enjoyable content could watch you guys all day, brilliant lads
Aawww! Thanks
Nice to see videos outside the uk are back! Good job at showcasing a part of France I knew very little about! Definitely would consider going there now.
Dubai next - and then Lisbon! Travel is back BABY!
@@topjaw I am so hyped!!
@@topjaw damnit Just came back from Dubai and would have really needed top jaw recommandations… guess I’ll have to go back 🤷🏻♀️
Lille looks so nice.. 😍
Don t be fooled by the nice editing, camera ect
The vieux Lille is the only cute area
The rest of lille is gloomy, dirty, filled with agressif teens from magrehb dealing drugs
The golden saying hello at the start 😍😍😍
Lille is one of the coolest French cities
I come from Lille and I’m so glad that you liked it ! Thank you ☺️
What a video, as always. Loved to see our English cousins showcase a bit of France. Thanks a lot, take care guys :)
Thanks. We loved Lille
This is maybe my favorite vlog you guys have made! Your energy is just beyond :)
Thanks Dana
Just gets better and better-thanks!!!!!
That’s great to hear and you’re very welcome!
Hands down my favourite YT channel. Keep up the good work lads
Thank you my man
My fav duo back in action again! Yay!
Thanks for your continued support Fin. Appreciate it
Lille is a grand place I'm glad you got to admire and view the scenery & experience the culture. That food looks really great and I'm sure was great to try. Thanks for the video
We can't wait to go back Justin. There is so much more to discover.
Lille not Lillie
Was not expecting to see Lille here, but makes me want to go now
Lille is definitely on the unsung hero list of Europe. Doesn't have the PR Paris has but is an awesome city.
Another superb video and top draw production lads!!
Thanks Rakesh
Merci for this smashing video of my hometown. Love the energies in the video (and there are many more places to taste but you visited "The" places "not to miss" 🍻
Wow. Found a hidden gem of a beer paradise - this place 'Lille' goes on my bucket list.
I like three essential parts of TopJaw videos, which were amply present in this episode -
1. Watching you go high on all the liquids - with both Jesse and Will looking as if they are completely smashed.
2. The food coma that one can see on Jesse's face when he is having something delicious.
3. Seeing you two hungover next morning after a busy busy day of binging and curing it with some good coffee and bakes.
Much love to you lads.
Enjoy.
haha it's what every good city break is made of! Thanks for the love
@@topjaw Cheers. Pls do some exclusive guided tours. I am sure it will be a hit.
Really this is the best channel on RUclips. Another great experience! Dubai is going to be incredible.
OMW! This is AMAZING! Can't wait to travel again! Awesome work lads
Cheers Spooky Pants!
wow that's so funny. I randomly found one of your videos 2years ago in LA cause I was in it and people recognised me (the blue cap guy at the In n Out), and now I live in Lille and I always go to La treille Cathedral where you had the beers. That's so fun. Can't wait to see where we'll go next to be there too ahaha.
Great fun video! I feel I must visit Lille now. :)
Finally back after lockdown. Nice when you two talking with each other. Keep doing
👍
Great video mate. I’m going in a couple of days and will try to go through some of good stuff you’ve shown 👏
I just got back from Lille and you guys did not fail me! Tamper’s coffee is amazing and those little morsels of pastry creamy goodness from L’Ogre de Carrouselberg we delicious!! Thanks guys!,
Oh wow, love that - so glad you had a good time. I'd love to go back
Totally upstaged by the dog! What a star, wish he/she had their own channel. 🐕❤️⭐️
That was a great watch! Keep it up lads!
Thanks. Will do
Love to see a well-done video! New fan here! awesome!
Thank you - and WELCOME!
Cannot explain how excited I get when a new TopJaw 48 video comes out. You guys kill it on every level!
Love the video on Lille, I definitely have to visit this place now! 🙌
Loooved this, Lille. Can't wait to see y'all go to Germany
This was one of my favorite videos of yours, just brilliant 😍😍🔥🔥
Thanks Eli Sa
Back at it again with 110% entertainment
Thanks 😊
So happy you've been to my hometown. So underrated for a weekend trip 👌👌
Happy that you enjoyed Lille, loving the video !
If you come back to Lille Coffee Makers is my favorite shop in town, although Tamper is great too! Amazing video that captures the city, let's me shows family and friends what it's like!
Coffee makers next time ……..
Amazing cinematography as always 💯
Thanks Lance
Excellent! I visited Lille from London back in March this year and like you say, place is easier to get to than most places in the UK up north. Weather was similarly grey like your trip but it's so beautiful to look at. It's small and you can walk to most places easily and just get lost.
I'd definitely recommend visiting Lille zoo which is excellent and great value for money.
That street Tamper! is on has some amazing artisanal food places too. It's all great and definitely worth a one or two nighter
Just a word of advice, it's not the most vegetarian friendly city. So if you look the like of a place and have a veggie in your party it will be difficult. The meaty dishes were bloody great though
Can’t wait for you guys to visit Brazil!
You gents smashed it! Another great TJ vlog!! Love from NYC 💖
Thanks Melissa ❤️
Excellent camera quality. Glad to see you guys back like this. Jesse is looking happy again :)
I’m so jealous you can go direct to Lille! They’ve ( the powers that be) have stopped the Eurostar journeys from Ashford- used to go to Paris, Avignon etc and planned to go to Lille in the future. Our MP Damian Green is useless. Sorry for the rant- loved the video❤️👍😘.
Lille is beautiful! Great video again, fellas 🙌🏾
We honestly didn't know that Lille was packing so much beauty
As soon as i saw that first scene with that happy doggo i knew this was going to be a TJ classic- not disappointed.
If anything there aren't enough dogs in TJ films...
@@topjaw release the hounds baby!
Just so you know, La Capsule is my favorite beer bar, it is also known as one of the (or maybe the) best Beer bar in France
Love you're back!!! 💙💙💙
😘
Awesome video love all the food especially the Poutine looks amazing. All the best from Canada
Aaww! Thanks Quinn
@@topjaw thank you 🙏 for all the hard work and amazing content.
Amazing production quality - first time watching I’m definitely subscribing
You both do such a wonderful job with your videos, l always wish that I could be there with you!
Lille is now on my Bucket list, thanks to You! Awesome!
Can't wait for another visit to
France and a return to the
Hoxton in Paris to check out
MORE of that Fabulous City!
Sending hugs to you!
Your friend in Kansas City,
Tom 😃🍀♥️🇺🇸🎉⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Thanks Tom, sending hugs back 🤗

Drôle de voir sa ville comme ça 😜😊😊😊😀
Fantastic video
Thanks George
i've been to Lille in 2016 and i had great time there.
Just the right content I need right now 💗
Yay! 👍
Like this city with its cool atmosphere ! Camden bar (Vieux Lille) is also a place to be ;)
Wow! I am studying in Lille and have never heard about some places! Thank you some much
Ah we love that
8:08 that transition man, killing it as usual boys
yeah we're proud of that one!! Thanks man
Haha I often saw Mama's Shelter when I passed by, and always wondered what it was. It sure looks amazing in your video !
You really visited at the right time, Mama's Shelter and Grand Scène weren't there a few years ago.
Just a little bit sad that you didn't get to try a famous pastry from Belgium and that we love here in the North, the merveilleux, particularly those made at Les Merveilleux de Fred. They're the best !
That’s good stuff
Another boss video lads 👍
Cheers!
Home sweet home m'y town Lille ❤️
The "Petit Pouchin" sound very chti (="Northern") for "petit poussin" (little chick). We call cute children "mon petit poussin". Noow You have to know that the local Anthem is "le petit quinquin", a Dickensian song about a toddler crying his eyes out as starvation prevents him from taking a nap. His Mum sings him the Lullaby "dors min ptit pouchin min gros rogin" (standard French "dors mon petit poussin mon gros raisin), both terms of endearment. So a native lilloise would immediately link the cake to a lovely cuddleworthy toddler with a pinch of localism. :-)
Thank you for providing us with such quality content ! Plus, you probably should feature a dog in every single one of your videos from now on
Haha yeh we love being joined by the doggos!
Love it . Great video on my city. Ta
little little in LILE is always appreciated
You guys have to do Belgium next.
Ghent?
Omg I just arrived in Lille! This video is very helpful ❤️
Just in time then 😊
I lived and studied in Lille for two years and this looks like a completely different city. Absolutely love that city. #LillemaVille ❤️❤️
Time for another visit?
