I absolutely am obsessed with vintage, antiques, and anything old (I have a vintage Etsy shop and…read morefrequent flea markets). So when I find a vintage store or antique shop that excites me, I have to share. This place is incredible! Such an array of vintage and antique items that to me would make for a much better souvenir than any trinket you could buy. As a Tiki lover, I found several old unused bottle labels for rum that I bought to frame and hang above my home bar. But they have everything from small items for a Euro or two, to large, antique advertising, bottles, dishes, and more. Absolutely loved this place and was so glad to have stumbled upon it!

Quality/Quantity - YES!! Finally Lyonnaise food! Walked the hall several times and ended up…read moreshopping and supporting at least 6 businesses. See pictures. All of which offered local Lyonnaise food. Thank you. Lyon is known for their food, but I have been unlucky with my meals. Some my fault, some theirs I am happy now to finally experience their local cuisine. Ambiance - Good size food hall. 3 butchers. 4-5 charcuterie shops. 7 bakeries. 11 cafes, bars, restaurants. 2 wine merchants. 5 seafood, oyster bars. 2 fish shops. 4 delis. 4 cheese shops. 3 produce shops. etc. Service - Overall good. Caters to both locals and tourists. Saw many tour groups. Price - Depends on what you buy, eat, or drink. I felt reasonably priced. Do keep in mind that this is also a tourist place, so prices may reflect that. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success.

Les Halles are one of those markets in Lyon that is an obligatory stop. If you've ever been to any…read moregourmet food market in Europe this one is no exception. The flavor profile is of course lyonnaise and to no surprise Paul Bocuse photos are on every all. Others of the same stature include La Mère Brazier who also has a restaurant in her honor. The selection of every which way savor and sweet are there for the picking and let's not forget the bakeries and cheese mongers as well as charcuterie purveyors .

Soierie Saint-Georges might be one of the most recommended silk stores in Lyon. I was told that…read moreLyon was famous for silk in history, and everyone I asked who visited Lyon in the past recommended this store. I had a very good visit. The staff at the store was very friendly and helpful. He told me that it is a family business that his father started 20 years ago and all the silk products were made locally in their workshop. Also the back room of the store showed some old machines and accessories for silk weaving that was good to check out. It is a good place to get local gifts.

I went to Lyon twice to buy their products. Absolutely the best lotion I've used. Many choices…read more A truly delightful shop

I absolutely adored this place, and can't wait to go back the next time I'm in Lyon. Located in…read morethe charming beautiful old city, this wonderful shop has thousands of prints, engravings, lithographs, drawings, and other original art that is out in the open and categorized for you to thumb through and browse. There's everything from old maps, to street scenes, repoductions of famous paintings, animals, flowers, nudes, contemporary prints, and virtually any kind of art you can think of. Prices seem very reasonable - I got an signed/numbered lithograph from the 50's for 125 euros, and a beautiful, century-old engraving of a nude playing the violin for 10 euros. I could have looked forever, and can't wait to come back! The staff was very helpful, and packed up my purchases in cardboard to protect them during my journey.

On a quest for vintage French movie posters, I visited LouLou while in Lyon. Charming part of the…read morecity, it was enjoyable just walking around the area on the way to the shop. There are reprints and commercial posters for browsing in the shop. So at first I was disappointed. Turns out that you need to ask to see the vintage posters...there are alphabetical lists and photos of all vintage posters on the PC at the back counter, and each one that I requested was brought out and unfolded for me to examine. My sole purchase was an original release "Some Like It Hot" poster with art by Grinsson - nice surprise find in this little shop! Poster was packed nicely for taking back home. Lots of other things for sale, but honestly I was focused on the posters. This is a "must visit" for old cinema poster buffs visiting Lyon!

They had a decent selection, considering it's kinda like a Macy's or something like that in the US. The cool thing is that when I was there (end of January) they were having the mandated sales in all the stores including Printemps. I got some nice stuff for 50% off!!!! It wasn't outrageous in the first place, but that sales point made the journey worthwhile!
