We stayed in Arcis on a Monday night. This was the only restaurant open. The meat was good quality but for €16 a plate you expect at least a piece of tomato on your plate!!! We had lamb skewers Chips 2 adults €38,40) and that was exactly what you got. Kids had merguez sausage chips. Kids eat more than one scrawny sausage no matter how many chips you put on a plate!!!!! My boys 8 11) were still hungry after spending €10 each on their meals. Mayonnaise and ketchup was on a saucer the size of a kids teaset and to be shared with 4 people. Small bottle of wine not even 1/2 litre) was €9,80 All up we spent €70 for 4 pieces of meat and loads of chips, 2 oranginas, 1 bottle of water and less than 2...
We stopped here on Sunday 16th August whilst driving south. Arcis makes a good stop fi you start in Calais. It was the only place open. We were late in the day and that seemed to affect the food. It was fine: chicken and chips and a vegetable couscous, and the owner was assiduous and flamboyant but, in the end it was only chicken and chips and nothing special. I see other people had a better experience, we may have been unlucky but I wouldn't stop here again.
I 've been a lot of times in this nice little town. The pizzeria near the camping was ok, but the rest... Finally i found this moroccon resto. I had a very good chicken brochette, nicely spiced.Good fries. Nice salad. The 'Chardo des copains ' was very ok. Price-quality excellent! The mint-tea was the best I 've ever drunk. You want a minus: the view outside. So just look at the inside.
When you are the only diners on an evening in the height of summer,well I think it says it all! I must say,it's not for the lack of trying,as the front of house guy was extremely friendly,and dealt with all our wishes. As for the food,nothing to write home about and certainly wasn't very inspiring.

This was the only restaurant open in the whole of Arcis on 1/9. However, what a find. The owner was very animated with his customers, great with the kids and provided one of the best couscous I have had outside of North Africa.
There's not much competition in Arcis but this restaurant was worth a visit. The welcome was enthusiastic, the olives delicious and our tajine took a while to arrive a good sign
