A word of warning: it is a little expensive, and after an hour or so of the drinks and the view it is definitely time to move on. But it's certainly worth a visit with friends - a good "1st stop" of the night. Just be sure to get a table near the window!

Jessica who was behind the bar shaking things up was one of the owners I believe and her other right hand was the fab Jean Baptiste. Both were so nice and great to chat with. They had a great story. The drinks! Negronis, boulevardiers, Cab franc wine and Vieux carre. We had some pretty fabulous cocktails. The playlist they were playing was outstanding ! Some great oldies and just great music. Whoever does that part deserves recognition. We definitely closed this place down, but had the best time.

On my first visit to Lyon, I convinced my friend for us to make a stop at Le Fantôme, so we did and…read morewe were both very confused because although the menu items matched those in the pictures, we felt like we were in the wrong bar. I say this because in one of the pictures we saw a rooftop view but when we arrived it was just a two story, house-like ambiance, which at the end of the day worked out anyway as we were very comfortable and it wasn't noisy at all, but still very confusing. The drinks were out of this world! I got the shark in a bikini or something along those lines and it was served in a Tiki cup while my friend's was served in this little stout looking jar. My drink wasn't too strong which is exactly how I like my cocktails so I was very impressed. All in all I would definitely come back here if ever in Lyon again :)

We loved that it's lots of locals and not overly hyped like some Parisian bars. If you're in Lyon, definitely don't miss it... it's a great cocktail scene here.

We went into this place with no expectations, just wanted to make a stop on the way home. We were…read morewarmly greeted by the bartender Lionel. We were feeling adventurous after spending almost 2 weeks in wine country and decided to ask him for a suggestion in the cocktails. He prepared a ginger beer and rum one for me, it was very good. We then decided to order a cheese and charcuterie plate, and switched to red, also very good. As we chatted with him and his colleague we discussed the merits of the American cocktail known as the Martini and how it is not a French thing at all. Once we finished our food and a few glasses of wine, he insisted on making and buying us a Martini, we were a little more than tipsy by this time and decided we could share one. Result: we now know where to get the best Dry Gin Martini, straight up with olives in all of France, it was so good that the hubby sang them a little Singing in the rain ditty with his umbrella, and we all parted with big smiles on our faces. Thanks and see you next time.

My Vesper was excellent and the color was perfect. We did not get food. We thought we would stop in for a cocktail before our checkout tomorrow.
