Finding yourself in Lyon means being at the heart of the French food scene, between traditions and diversity. You can find here the top 5 restaurants to try in Lyon in order to enjoy the world's capital city of gastronomy!

Les Cafetiers

Way more than a coffee shop as its name would suggest, Les Cafetiers is definitely a perfect lunch or brunch place to try when in town.

Ideally located in the Presqu'île district, in the heart of the city, this little happy place offers a variety of healthy and fresh foods, suitable for breakfast, lunch, brunch, or even just for drinks. You'll be able to taste their very qualitative and locally sourced food products, meanwhile enjoying the nice setting and warm atmosphere. Just as much items as needed are available on the menu for you to pick your favorite meal or a special dish with their typical twist. Don't miss out on their tastiest homemade pastries for dessert!

Bouillon Baratte

On a very different note, Bouillon Baratte, formerly Le Caro de Lyon, is your ideal destination if you're looking for a more traditional cuisine.

You'll enjoy refined dishes allowing you to discover or find again the true tastes of the French cuisine or even culinary specialties from Lyon.
