French Living

Tucked away in Nottingham city center since 1994, French Living is a family-owned restaurant bringing a little piece of France to the heart of the city. Founded by Corsican Stéphane Luiggi and Louise, it captures the warmth and conviviality of a traditional French bistro.

Today, their son Pierre is gradually taking over the family business, carrying on the same values and traditions that have shaped French Living for over 30 years

The kitchen champions authentic homemade French cuisine, prepared with care and served with effortless charm. It's the kind of place where time-honoured techniques meet the comfort of familiar flavours, brought to the table by a dedicated, long-standing team who make guests feel like part of the family.

Cosy and intimate, the dining room hums with easy conversation and old-school hospitality. Ideally located near the Theatre Royal, Royal Concert Hall, and Nottingham Playhouse, it's a natural stop for pre-theatre suppers and post-show unwinds - just as suited to romantic dates as to lively gatherings with family and friends.

Settle in, raise a glass, and let French Living bring a little joie de vivre to your evening. Reserve a table and make a night of it - after all, Nottingham's even lovelier with a French accent!
