Between Nice and Paris

Hi, Im looking for a nice, pretty place to stop 2 days between Nice and Paris. I was thinking Dijon BUT since I going to spend few days in Paris Im looking for a more charming place that doesn't look similar to Paris, like I think Dijon is?? ... looking for a walkable medium size, with nice markets and lots of local shops, with a charm, lost bars and restaurants ...not to small, not to empty or secluded...just a nice medium size sito or a big town... not interested in ruins or museums

should I clarify we don't drink alcohol=wine??

to consider my trip from Nice to Paris is on train ... so have to be on that path ...

What are your suggestions??
Thank you.

Dijon is very nice! I have never thought of Paris while in Dijon!
But perhaps you'd prefer staying nearby in smaller, charming Beaune. It is a small sized walled city surrounded by vineyards. We stayed in the town center four times where the wines are sold in the vintner’s shops. Charming.
