Even though Luxembourg has a generous range of restaurants on offer, finding a place to eat every day can be a challenge. A short lunch break doesn’t mean you have to give up on quality, though. Here are a few spots for people who don’t have much time for lunch.
1. Bowls Health Food
Looking for a balanced, tasty meal? Bowls Health Food, located in the City Concorde shopping centre, specialises in fresh, healthy dishes served in colourful bowls.

Healthy eating enthusiasts will also enjoy the cold-pressed juices and smoothies on offer, packed with vitamins and flavour.
2. Le Pain Quotidien
In the same spirit of simplicity and respect for good ingredients, Le Pain Quotidien offers a different but equally authentic experience. The iconic artisan bakery recently opened its doors in Luxembourg, on rue Aldringen, right next to the Royal-Hamilius. Here, authenticity takes centre stage, with a varied choice of artisan breads, pastries, salads and sandwiches to enjoy in a warm, rustic-style setting. True to its philosophy of serving quality products, Le Pain Quotidien favours organic and local ingredients, and includes products such as organic wines and local Luxembourg beers in its range. This is the place to go for breakfast and brunch, with kachkéis (cooked cheese) and onion confit tartines, a local speciality revisited by Le Pain Quotidien. In this relaxed, timeless setting, it’s all about unwinding with simple, delicious food.
3. Charles Sandwiches
For sandwich lovers, Charles Sandwiches is a must in Luxembourg. Founded on the values of simplicity and freshness, the brand is notable for its use of local products, particularly meats and artisan breads.

It’s the perfect place for a lunch break or a weekend brunch, on your own or with friends, while enjoying Wi-Fi access and original drinks such as homemade mango lassi.
4. Lux’s Burger
Are you a carnivore? Lux’s Burger offers a different take on fast food, with a focus on quality ingredients. Located in the heart of Luxembourg, this restaurant revisits the classic burger with a local twist. The meat is sourced from local suppliers, and each burger comes with Belgian fries carefully prepared for maximum crunchiness. The menu includes 35 unique dishes, including vegetarian options. The homemade sauces, prepared on site, add a touch of character to every burger. The emphasis on fresh produce is evident in every bite, and the team on hand ensure that every customer finds the burger that’s right for them. Seasonal dishes, featuring local produce, complete the menu, to the delight of burger lovers.
