\"Nancy8\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Consider this beloved brasserie the Rick\u2019s Cafe of Nancy: the Excelsior is where everyone shows up – at one time or another. A stunning example of Art Nouveau architecture that evokes the glories of the Belle \u00c9poque, the Excelsior is a celebration of “l\u2019art de vivre” – at every hour of the day.<\/p>\n

Built in 1911, the luxurious brasserie was a testament to the principles of L\u2019Ecole de Nancy with Art Nouveau facades by Lucien Weissenburger, stained glass windows by Jacques Gruber, furniture from Atelier Majorelle, and chandeliers and copper sconces by Daum Glassworks, with the later addition of an Art Deco staircase by Jean Prouv\u00e9. In other words, the Excelsior is nothing less than a celebration of the principles espoused by Nancy\u2019s greatest artists and architects who believed in the marriage of art, nature, and industry.<\/p>\n

With a reputation for festive parties and late-night soirees, the Excelsior was the birthplace of Nancy\u2019s Jazz Festival – and today, the animated atmosphere at the Excelsior embodies the gracious hospitality of Nancy.<\/p>\n

The cuisine at the Excelsior is a mixture of traditional brasserie specialties with Lorraine influences. A raw seafood bar at the Excelsior\u2019s entrance is a reminder of the ocean\u2019s bounty; oysters are fresh and delicious – and particularly with Champagne.<\/p>\n

When in Nancy, do as the locals do: celebrate life at the Excelsior.<\/p>\n
