Lyon 1 city guide

Choosing a place to live also means choosing a neighborhood and everything that makes it come alive every day. Behind every street hide addresses that create connections, tell a story, and contribute to a district’s identity. From local cafés and restaurants to independent shops and inspiring venues, here is a selection of our favorite addresses to discover the arrondissement in a new light.

PLACE

Lyon 1

Café des adjoints

With its warm atmosphere and retro decor, Café des Adjoints revives the spirit of traditional old-style bistros with a modern twist. People come here for a delicious lunch as well as for coffee, aperitifs, or dinner with friends, in a friendly setting where sharing is at the heart of the experience.

Papé

From the first coffee of the morning to lively after-work drinks, Papé accompanies every moment of the day. This hybrid café combines specialty coffee, artisanal pastries, homemade food, and a musical atmosphere in a vibrant place where food, drinks, and conviviality meet.

Soleil d'octobre

Much more than a simple decor shop, Soleil d’Octobre is a source of inspiration where every object is carefully selected. With natural materials, distinctive pieces, and a warm atmosphere, the address invites you to imagine an interior that reflects your own style and to let your creativity flow.

Leptine

Designed as a true living space, Leptine celebrates moments of sharing over coffee, a meal, or a drink. People come here to talk, work, put the world to rights, or simply enjoy a timeless moment, in a welcoming atmosphere where everyone quickly feels at home.

Café Mio

Halfway between a café, stationery shop, and cultural venue, Café Mio celebrates the art of writing and correspondence. Between comforting drinks, homemade treats, workshops, exhibitions, and an original concept that lets you send a letter years into the future, this place invites you to slow down and nurture your creativity.

Bichon

Bichon reinvents the spirit of the inn by blending local cuisine with street food influences. Local ingredients are creatively transformed into generous sharing plates, before giving way, as the evening goes on, to a livelier and more unconventional atmosphere.

Papoterie

Papoterie is a place dedicated to creativity and sharing, where everyone is invited to let their imagination speak. Through workshops open to all, the venue offers a space to create, exchange, and enjoy a friendly moment in a creative and caring spirit.
