La Coquille is a charming French restaurant located in the old part of the town on a romantic square, not far from the cathedral. It is usually packed with locals - a tell-tale sign when it comes to eateries. If the weather permits, take a seat in the outside terrace with a small flower garden.
Dining
The cuisine of the Languedoc region has much in common with Mediterranean cooking, including sumptuous fresh ingredients from the best that both land and sea have to offer. In Montpellier, the ties to Catalonia on the other side of the Spanish border are apparent in the size of the portions served. The city has the full range of dining options from luxury restaurants to rustic neighbourhood eateries.
