The bartenders we interacted with while we sat at the bar were so cool and happy to talk to us about drinks and their knowledge which in France if your a bartender it's an actual profession. A job taken Seriously. They know their stuff! We came here a couple of nights and had Kir Royales and espresso martinis and some of their signature creations off the menu as well. Lloyd made me a mezcal drink which he created based on on my likes so that was kinda cool. Loved this bar and everyone needs to try it if your a cocktail drinker. It's not huge inside so get there early or make reservations. We got lucky both times with finding bar seating. Fabulous drinks and amazing service from Emma, Lloyd and Laura! Definitely a gem in Lyon.

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.

Whoever does that part deserves recognition. We definitely closed this place down, but had the best time.

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 :)

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.

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.

Met some friendly "neighbors" from Modesto, CA, USA. Hung out for a while over beers. Ambiance - Small local business. Cool decor. Indoor and outdoor seating. A clean shared outhouse for the toilet. Service - 5 stars, welcoming and inviting. The bartender and waitress were very relaxed. Price - 22 Euros, $26 USD; reasonable for a nice break and everything we got. Everyone left happy.
