The favorites of my neighborhood

You will certainly have already developed your various visits to discover our beautiful city of Lyon. Here the objective is not to repeat what you will find in the guides but to share with you my different favorites which are located close to the apartment.

They are all located "on the way up", . I live 5 minutes from the Cour des Bois and I admit that I prefer to "go up" than to go down in the city center. The atmosphere is a little different, often more cozy, with quality products (market produce, boards from local producers, local beer) you will find many quality bars and restaurants.

Travel times are given for a walk.

7 Rue des Pierres plantées, 69001 Lyon

 

The Corks

Chez Paul - 04 78 28 35 83

One of the most authentic Lyonnais bouchons in terms of atmosphere, decor, and food - Be warned, it's noisy, you'll often be sharing a table with other people

11 Rue Major Martin, 69001 Lyon

 

Bouchon Bat d'Argent - 04 72 27 18 66

Very good but "less Lyonnais" apart from the andouillette and the quenelle

La Tête de Lard - 04 78 27 96 80

It's a Lyon institution. Very good food.

Bars

The bars

5 min:

Barabaar - 26 Rue Jean Baptiste Say, 69001 LYON

A terrace with a beautiful view of Lyon a few steps up the Montée de la Grande Côte (I never ate anything there)

Le Bistrot d'à Côté - 28 rue des Tables Claudiennes, 69001 LYON

A little confidential, it's my favorite. For its terrace at the end of a dead end and because when there is no more room, there is still some on the stairs. And for their snack boards!

L'âne sans queue - 7 Place Colbert, 69001 Lyon

A terrace with a nice view over Lyon. Very friendly and lively, you have the feeling of being in a village square, with boules players, and Molky's game.

Dikkenek Café - 3 Rue d'Austerlitz, 69004 Lyon

All in wood, with a succulent board to share and plenty of draft beers.

My winter darling.

Commerces

Do not miss

2 min:

Amphitheater of the 3 Gauls

From the apartment, go up the Montée de la Grande Côte, first on the left rue des Tabes Claudienne, barely 100 meters you are there!

You will have a magnificent view of the theater and the Basilica of Fourvière

5 min:

The most beautiful traboule of the slopes : La cour des Voraces

This traboule is to be done absolutely at night, it is illuminated that it reveals all its charm.

For my part, I always show it around starting from N ° 29 rue Imbert Colomes (It is the second street on the right going up from the apartment).

Take the time to look for the tagged mailboxes, they will be on your right in one of the hallways of buildings. I find them magnificent.

When you come out in the courtyard, take the main staircase and above all resist, do not turn around. Turn around when you are in the middle of the stairs, and admire. Even though I use it very regularly, this courtyard still fascinates me as much. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

10 min:

Place Bellevue

A magnificent 180degres view of Lyon. It is barely 5 minutes from the Cour des Voraces.
