Great find in this neighborhood with a solid latte in Lyon. Fast and friendly service.
Great coffee and lovely staff !
Exceptional service with genuinely the best lemon cake I've ever had. Host was extremely friendly and took the patience to explain each menu item in English. The Star of Lyon.

The best: the coffee ☕️. There are a lot of options from where to choose. The filter coffee was great, right ratio coffee:water. Some of the options are only available after midday. I tried some eggs with bread that were delicious, really creamy and tasty. The place is not that confy but the service is good.

Opening up a hospitality business requires hospitality, one thing you can’t find here. It’s a pity for that community based neighbourhood!
Very delicious food and coffee👍🏻
We had beunch here. Just fantastic. Really friendly personnel. Simple menue with delicious food. Many selections for cakes. We tried two and both were incredible.

Beautifully decorated coffee shop in the heart of lyon. Ordered some brookie and some iced mocha. Both were delicious, but the mocha was a lil bit light for my liking. Nevertheless it was good!👍🏽
It is a very cute place with an original 100% vegan homemade menu! Delicious meals in a chill atmosphere. Lovely staff, we'll come back!

The coffee was good and the space is bright, however the owner is extremely rude. When ordering a coffee, he answered my question with a demeaning attitude. I went to the bathroom, and instead of politely letting me know that the café was closing, he banged on the door, rushing me and yelling at me to get out. Less than five minutes later, he was banging on the door and yelling again. After I exited the restroom, the owner insulted me, using inappropriate words and telling me to go back to my country. I strongly recommend that you don't visit this place because nobody deserves to be treated this way.

Cozy with fresh bakeries.. a nice place to have a breakfast or a brunch. Delicious lemon and chi seed cake.
Top notch on a patio...
The baristas are very nice and willing to help you with anything, not too crowded so perfect for finishing work or studying and great drinks & food! ❤️
Excellent cuisine made with fresh ingredients. Interesting flavors that go beyond the typical French menu. Love that it's vegetarian. A bright, peaceful atmosphere. Desserts were delicious, too. Already looking forward to returning.

I had the "Sunday brunch fixed menu" here and, suffice to say, I was sufficiently blown away by the food. For 26 euros, I received a unique cold beverage, an appetizer, a main, and a dessert, and all of the courses were creative, delicious, and filling. Also, staff were also friendly, courteous, and informative. I can honestly and happily say that this meal was one of the most memorable experiences of my trip to France, and I'm so glad I decided to pop in while exploring Croix-Rousse!

Best vegetarian meal in Lyon. Came here for brunch which was awesome!
So many options to eat in Lyon and at time you might find it difficult to choose - the brunch at Mercredi Biscuiterie will not let you down. The food was fresh, well portioned, and fairly priced. The menu us rotated occasionally for freshness. Nicolas was our waiter and we were properly pampered. Merci Nicolas!

Nice, cozy hipster coffee store. We stopped by for a cappuccino, it was really really good - the brownie tasted nice as well. They offer good sandwich options for lunch. You can sit down, use the wifi and charge your phone. Really nice place.

Cute, cosy and full of light. The food was fresh, delicious and colourful (matching the flower wall) and knowing it was gluten free made it even better. Tucked away but so worth looking for it.
We visited this restaurant on a Sunday where the only option available was a fixed menu.
There were only two people working in the whole place, one cooking and occasionally clearing tables snd the other as a waitress. Because of this we waited for 1 hour and 15 minutes before we saw the starter. Unfortunately having to wait for so long spoiled the experience because the atmosphere of the restaurant is very warm and welcoming and the food is good.
Another thing that was not explained was that some people received some items, others didn't, everyone on the same table had the same dish, but that could be different from the next table: we had a sweet potato galette on lentils (very nice), the table behind had lasagne. No one was able to order anything specific.
It's a shame that the only reason I will remember this restaurant is the wait we had to endure, in total we spent over two hours inside, mainly drinking water and looking at the waitress .

I loved it here! I visited multiple times over the course of a month and had amazing coffee and food every single time. The staff are lovely. The flat white and latte are the best in Lyon. The filter coffee is wonderful. The salad and sandwiches are delicious. It was my favourite cafe in Lyon. I would highly recommend. Thank you so much, I really enjoyed my time here! :)

Good ice coffee but HORRIBLE SERVICE MIND

We went there in groups. Despite good drinks and they provided, the attitude of some staff, and the unfriendly vibes in general made me didn't want to go back there again. - I don't know if it's about the fact that most of us don't speak French, in any case, I didn't feel we were welcomed there.

The closing time is 6 p.m. but if you wanted to go to the toilet, you'd better hurry 'coz they will close it a half an hour ahead.

10/10! Les Cafetiers offers a delicious breakfast for a reasonable price. We got the Pear Perfect and the Granola Bowl as well as a mocha and an iced chai. Totally hit the spot! And the presentation was beautiful as well!! We will be back for sure :)

Nice cafe, very cosy. Friendly service and good coffee.
We did not want to write a negative opinion, but after two days of eating there, we still feel very disappointed by the experience, so we decided that it is important that we write it.

The place seemed very inviting and colorful with a very friendly vibe with the precious idea of being vegan, gluten-free and organic (what is uncommon in Lyon). We were offered brunch for 26 euros per person including drinks, which seemed a bit much, but from our short experience is quite common in Lyon.

Unfortunately, the food was tasteless, presented carelessly and it was not fresh. It made us feel sick for the rest of the day (literally, as our stomachs were aching). The open kitchen, which one walks through, while walking to the toilet, displayed pieces of our "freshly" prepared food left out to further dry. The staff, even though friendly at first, seemed frustrated and even angry at moments. It was a weird, unexpected experience.

It is important to say that we fully agree with the restaurants' mission of serving 100% vegan and organic (also gluten-free is nice to have) meals influenced by local and international cuisine in an inclusive atmosphere.

We very much hope that the comment will serve as a constructive critique, although from the experience we had, we believe that it won't be taken as such. This will be a pity, because we need more and not fewer fans of such concepts.
Best goûtér I had in Lyon! We had jasmin tea, cake à citron and tried many biscuits. Everything tasted very good and the service was friendly. They were open on Sundays (big win) which is quite rare for Lyon. They are more on the expensive side but it was worth it!

I would go to this coffee shop at least 3 times a week when I was studying abroad here in Lyon. Very friendly staff and they always greeted me with a smile. Coffee and desserts were delicious and the environment was the coziest of any coffee shop I visited in Lyon.

Vegan food. I took my friends who are not vegan and meat eaters and they did not try to find the taste of such proteins in the dishes. There was no need. It was so tasty with a colorful presentation and flavors, and we feel the whole-hearted research to activate everyone's taste buds. The wine was excellent too, we highly recommend and we will soon be back for a brunch this time ! Cheers to the team !
We had a really lovely evening, great service and fantastic vegan food - it even satiated committed meat eaters. The wine list features a good range and is well priced - we particularly enjoyed the chef’s recommendation. Also worth noting that it’s a lovely space and we fitted a group of 8 in comfortably, not always the easiest thing to do in Lyon! Highly recommended.
It is always difficult to find a good place to eat when you’re traveling as a vegan but we were very pleased to have found this restaurant. The menu was completely vegan and very creative! The fresh ingredients and the natural wine we had with our three courses was loved by vegans and non- vegan in our group! I can definitely recommend this restaurant if you want to have a delicious and healthy evening in Lyon, France!

I have only good things to say about place! The food was incredibly delicious, the staff was friendly (always a plus in my book!) and even they even kept my shopping bag aside aftwr I forgot it and picked it up 30 min later 😊
Also worth mentioning: the wines were very tasty (which isn't always the case for organic wines as they dont "cheat" as much with the flavours as traditional wines do).

This location still has that new coffeeshop smell and you will be warmly welcomed by two lovely individuals with infectious smiles. This beautifully decorated location serves an eclectic mix of coffee, milk, and tea based beverages and is a vegetarian/vegan friendly establishment. This is also a comfortable spot to bring your laptop and get some work done. You will find a beautiful Victoria Arduino behind the bar and this location uses the local roaster OBCR. I found the coffee to be okay as I’ve found the milk prep to be the weak point absent when using the various alternative milk substitutes they provide. There is a coffee of the day, which from my experiences have all been some unique blend such as a charcoal latte. For the alternative milk based drinkers you will be delighted to find golden lattes on the menu. Additionally, ginger shots, teas, and various fresh juices are also available. The sweet treats offered here are all made in-house and are primarily prepared in a health conscious manner (sugar free, gluten free, vegan). As of right now, they only offer other food options one day a week and a weekend brunch. Accessibility issues are numerous here unfortunately, making it extremely difficult for people to enter the location as well as use the toilets. There are a few factors that set this location apart from the many coffeeshops opening in Lyon, and none of it has to do with coffee. I recommend this location for those looking for alternative beverages such as the charcoal, matcha, and golden latte.

Service was a bit slow even first thing in the morning.. One staff member at the table, one out the back.. A little slow making the coffee too. Cappuccino is okay but has that distinct creamy milk taste that some coffee has here.. Coffee is big for 3€ though. Haven't tried the food but it looks like it would be nice. Very cool neat little Cafe.

One of my favorite places for coffee and healthy brunch. Amazing cakes as well! Can get quite busy around peak hours, but totally worth the wait.
