Must order: The seasonal plat du jour in the museum garden.

La Maison d'Anna cooks Puglian orecchiette and Bolognese ragù from nonna's recipes on Rue des Trésoriers de France in Montpellier's old town.
Order: Orecchiette with the day's ragù.

Ma Première Cantine plays on school-dinner nostalgia on Place Jean Jaurès in Montpellier, serving without a break from 08:30 to midnight daily.
Order: Soft-boiled œufs à la coque with soldiers.
Tip: Continuous service is the superpower: it feeds you at hours when every proper kitchen in the Écusson is closed.
Nabab Kebab holds the corner between the Comédie and the station on Rue Maguelone, halal kebabs served until 01:00 for six nights of the week.
Order: The classic kebab plate, halal certified.
Tip: This is the late-night answer after a Rockstore gig; the queue moves fast even past midnight.
Bol Bun & Bubble ladles bo bun bowls and bubble tea on Rue d'Alger in Montpellier, a quick Vietnamese counter between the Comédie and the station.
Order: A bo bun bowl with grilled pork and nem, herbs piled high
Tip: Lunch bowls land fast and under 15 euros; the afternoon break between services catches people out.
