The best bars and cafés Rhônes-Alpes

The Regence is aBar and Brasserie located at the corner of a building, opposite the market square and the pedestrian street. An ideal location in the summer, to enjoy a drink on the terrace and enjoy the warmth of the sun in winter to enjoy a good cup of coffee or tea while while having a wonderful view outside through large windows. You may as well take a break after shopping, a lunch break during your work before the daily menu or the dish proposed by the chef. The relatively large and bright dining room provides a calm and relaxing atmosphere in a decor reminiscent of the piano bar style. The service itself is fast, keeping professional discretion and sympathy. Regence is the idyllic place to enjoy a moment of relaxation.

Change your vision of karaoké, come to the K Box Club, an address among the most Futé. Imported from Asia, the real karaoké is not what you imagine or what you could practise during an evening too sprinkled (that is to say, an old-fashioned thing where one is humiliated in public with a micro in the hand). Karaoké is undoubtedly the best way to have fun with friends and to really relax in the ideal conditions of comfort and conviviality. Easily accessed via line A metro, station République, K Box Club undoubtedly offers the best experience of karaoké in Lyon and all the Metropolis. Here, people come with friends, with colleagues, in family and everyone has fun like never before - much better than watching TV (for the fans of N'oubliez pas les paroles...) or in our bathroom - between us in a fully isolated private lounge, protected from outside looks and the displaced judgements. At K Box Club, all the lounges, small and large (the largest can host up to 15 people at the same time), are perfectly equipped with comfortable banquettes and professional equipment to sing. And to sing, the choice is huge with a catalogue of more than 30,000 titles! Whatever your style, your desires, of yesterday and today, you will inevitably find your happiness and your favourite songs in all languages (it is even more amusing in a foreign language...). Moreover, K Box Club always innovates with a connected equipment that preserves the playlist of guests who can establish them in advance on the Internet. Another innovation, the Pop Up, karaoké on wheels that will move through all France starting from January 2016. In Villeurbanne, during the karaoké, you can sip a cocktail to clear up the voice before sharing new giggles. Before or after the karaoké, you can prolong the pleasure of being at K Box Club by settling at Lounge, a stylish bar in the 1960s style revisited for a drink or to eat an Asian tapas menu. The K Box Club, it is the original version of karaoké, the only real Futé.

Opened in May 2021, this establishment offers a true gustatory journey. Here, everything is homemade and the menu adapts to the seasons. In this paradise of good taste, where pastries, sandwiches and cakes make our taste buds salivate just by looking at them, the products are local. The decoration in natural tones blends perfectly with the theme of this tea room. In other words, it is an establishment as we like them which allows to associate a tasty meal and a little rest in the heart of downtown. Authentique also does take-away sales.

The Jardin du Thé, created by brothers Mathias and Gaël Le Gloan, is a delight to discover on this peaceful pedestrian street. A haven of peace in the heart of the city, where people love to come and recharge their batteries. A garden divided into two parts, each on a different side of the street, between boutique and tea room. With an adorable team, comfort in every season with delicious homemade iced teas in summer and a selection of over 300 teas and infusions served hot, accompanied by homemade pastries. Smiles and flavors to share.

Behind a huge private club-style door, a bric of chairs, tables and armchairs, all right from antique shops, creates an atmosphere conducive to relaxation. On the shelves, classical literature prompts to ask. And to perfect this décor, exhibitions of pictorial artists in the region are organized regularly, with rotation every two to three months. It is only possible to choose among the many wine-growing wines offered by the card, the vintage that will best accompany this moment. Unless you prefer to draw in coffees and tea-making teas.

To accompany the wine (and not the reverse), the establishment uses artisanal products, charcuterie, cheeses, smoked trout from the Jura and other foie gras de duck. Similarly, walnuts, figs and other dry fruits are offered to customers with their order.

Unclassifiable, inescapable, it is there that everything begins and it is also there that everything ends since... 139 years! In other words, the Buvette du Marché is one of the city's institutions. A place that is both picturesque and atypical. Picturesque, but the Buvette is not obsolete and is even more beautiful, even warmer to welcome us at dawn when a cup of coffee is needed to start the day before going to the market or to work. A day that continues between the terrace, animated at all hours, and the bar where you can enjoy meeting new people. Perfect service and good humour guaranteed for this bar which is part of the heritage of Annecy.

A Grisbi that touched us with its velvety paw. A place beautifully inspired by the speakeasies of the American Prohibition era, yet with an elegant French touch. Lovely welcome and service from a team of professional cocktail specialists. In this universe blending cinema, music (excellent by the way), architecture and interior design, we keep coming back to taste the 4 seasonal menus and enjoy the perfect cocktail to suit our mood. A must-try is "le digeo gourmand", a homemade pastry accompanied by a top-of-the-range digestif. Cocktail classes and mixology workshops, spirits tasting evenings. A Grisbi is also available for private hire.

Pile ou Face opened its doors in January 2024. Around 200 board games are on offer, for all ages and for children aged 2 and over: cooperative games, atmospheric games, investigative games, as well as classics such as Scrabble and card games. There's also a store where you can buy the games you've discovered on site. Pile ou Face also has a bar serving coffee, beer, wine and spirits. For a snack, you can opt for cakes, homemade spreads and charcuterie and cheese boards.

This wine and cocktail bar promises to be a great place to have a good time. Founded and run by 5 friends, the Kiosque offers a convivial space with a successful decor, a friendly, pleasant atmosphere and a varied clientele... Behind the counter, the mixologist handles the shaker, the slate announces the dishes to be shared, and the music is just right. The wine and cocktail list is explained in detail. A farandole of flavors on the plate. A powerful Saint-Joseph by the glass goes well with braised pork, alcohol-free Whitehaven with deconstructed pavlova... A perfect match!

The Bureau, you will go back to it, and above all, beyond working hours! In a Square of Silk that continues to evolve, the Bureau holds a separate place. To get there, there is no question, because the office takes advantage of the large free parking in the shopping centre and stays open every day of the year (except 2 days…). For the rest, this office has little to do with others (offices…), since everything is implemented at every moment to ensure our happiness. Start with the atmosphere in a restaurant held by a motorcycle enthusiast (rallies take place regularly), which will bring the atmosphere up throughout the day. Finally, it's an organ of electric guitar, with the many concerts organized all year long, especially with Ralph Hartmann. A friendly atmosphere that spreads in a warm, air-conditioned room where everyone naturally finds their place around a large table or a more intimate table. Another pleasure of the place, the terrace open on the racecourse is the race at the top of our list of the most beautiful terraces. And the kitchen? It is nothing to say that Christophe Félix is demanding the quality of products served on fine plates, starting with excellent meats, good breads for home burgers, a royal Welsh, fish & chips, curry gambas or a well-composed board. A baker/baker is now on site to make homemade desserts and breads. Beautiful beer card to accompany everything, with Leffe as a lighthouse. At the Office, address to consume without moderation.

This friendly games bar is ideal for sharing a moment with friends or family. Game lovers can enjoy a game of pétanque on the indoor pitch, or darts and Beer Pong. When the weather's fine, the terrace is the perfect place to enjoy a drink and a platter of cold meats or cheese. For gamers, a dozen pre-recorded tablet games are available. In winter, enjoy broadcasts of major soccer, rugby, tennis and NBA matches!

L'Aromo is not only a wine bar, but also a cellar (rue Pasteur) open to terroirs from all over the world. After 8 years, the decor has changed somewhat, in more cosy bluish notes, for a crunchy Aromo with Damien and Frédéric at the controls. A place for exchanges and meetings where you come to taste excellent wines from France and the world. More than a hundred references that take us on a journey through French terroirs, but also around the world. Wide choice of gins and spirits. Small restaurants.

An institution at the heart of Lyon's life since 1864, the café Les Négociants offers a timeless décor, finally Second Empire, to find oneself in a not really intimate atmosphere - mirrors everywhere and tables a little tight - between people in good company. The prices are commensurate with the good attendance of the place, but some drinks are worth it, such as homemade hot chocolates. Le Petit Négo - snacking/coffee-shop - and Le Glacier des Négociants.

Come and have a drink, a bite to eat and some fun at Les lutins! The leprechauns are the guardians of an incredible and ever-growing collection, with no fewer than 835 games for the general public available free of charge (because it's really cheap). While it's good to play and have the rules explained by a host, it's also possible to eat and drink without rolling a dice or casting a spell! Home cooking using fresh, local produce, mostly organic, for lunch and dinner. A wide choice of beverages to accompany your meal, or just to indulge in some original tipples. Exhibitions, events and private functions.

Don't look for the storefront of Tata Coffee but the black scooter of Carmen. It is located in the week of the bus exchange, boulevard de la Column or Saturdays at the Byward market. Carmen also travels on your events, events to serve a little black released straight from his original installation. Coffee and tea, chocolate, champagne, fruit juice from Savoy… are at your disposal waiting for your bus or during your passage near the Elephants. Take or eat on site. Smile in addition!

Kaffee Berlin is scattered all over Lyon. Launched 13 years ago in Sans-Souci, the chain now has 5 locations from the Croix-Rousse plateau to the banks of the Rhône. Kaffee Berlin is a cultural and gourmet link between two capitals, two lifestyles that come together in the pleasure of savouring good things. In all these places where you can drink and eat well, the same conviviality. The program includes 24 special beers imported direct, German beers on draught and in bottle, as well as house cocktails and original softs, always German. Burgers, bagels and grilled meats to prolong the pleasure.

When dreams come true, it's even better to share them. Inspired by a song by the late Alain Bashung, Mademoiselle Rêve certainly fits into this category of addresses to share for a good evening out. Right next to the Bourse du Travail, a quiet terrace, a cosy room and a sofa where you can rediscover the pleasure of talking while sharing a few glasses of wine selected by lovers of good things, house cocktails and tasty platters made from quality produce. A smiling welcome from an adorable team, guaranteed good humor, conviviality and good music too. Live your sweetest dreams.

Explosive evenings ahead! In the chic district between Masséna and Brotteaux, here's L'Artchimiste. Mixology is the science of "chemists" of liqueurs, spirits and other beverages. Excellent ingredients, including great spirits and fresh produce, are used to create cocktails and mocktails that can be adapted to suit every taste. So much so, in fact, that the barman can even compose a cocktail to suit your mood. A warm and inviting place with stone walls, French-style ceiling, year-round terrace and cellar. A great address.

Unique mix in Lyon of traditional pub, with more than 200 whiskies and original bottles, 15 draught beers, and restaurant with the possibility to eat traditional English-speaking cuisine: organic salmon tartar from Scotland, Wallace Burger, Fish & Chips, lemon tart... Without forgetting brunch on weekends. The Wallace Bar regularly offers concerts, as well as major sporting events on three giant screens, quiz nights, theme evenings and a terrace with heating on the Saône side. An eternal pleasure.
