The Nancy City Guides answer what visitors want to know: where to taste a real quiche lorraine and the city’s old-fashioned macarons, how to see Place Stanislas at its best, which Art Nouveau houses to walk past and which bars the students actually fill. Every guide is a compact, opinionated list giving the reason to go, what to order or look at and one practical tip for each place, and it opens in your browser as soon as you pay.

Three places from the guides
Bistrot Gros
Rue de la Source, Old Town
A young team rewrites the menu every week or two around local produce and gives French bistro cooking a Japanese and Korean accent. Book ahead, the room fills fast. From the food guide.
Opéra national de Lorraine
East side of Place Stanislas
A national opera house behind an 18th-century façade on the square, with a gilded horseshoe auditorium from 1919. A night of opera or ballet here costs far less than in Paris. From the things to do guide.
Centre Pompidou-Metz
Metz, 40 minutes by train
The eastern branch of the Paris museum, under a white roof shaped like a tent just behind Metz station. Expect big temporary shows of modern and contemporary art. From the day trips guide.
Plan your days in Nancy
Start day one on Place Stanislas while it is still empty, take in the fine arts museum, buy lunch at the covered market and walk the Grande Rue through the Old Town before a wine bar in the evening. Give day two to Art Nouveau: the École de Nancy museum, Villa Majorelle and Parc Sainte-Marie, or take the train to Metz instead. On a rainy or slow day, mix the Muséum-Aquarium, the tropical glasshouses of the botanical garden and a long crêpe lunch, then come back to the square after dark when the gates are lit.
