Le Bistrot de la Saint Jean

We were in Lyon in December 2014It was cold and windy, the trees were bare, and we were hungry.

Food was ok but one main course didn't show up until everyone else was done. No apology, just no food. Not what we expect in Paris (or anywhere)

Alex is in the restaurant and his wife, Sophie in the kitchen so this is a family business where the (quick)lunchtime menu is on offer at 15 Euros with a choice of starter, main and dessert. Everything is freshly cooked with in season produce and you will not be disappointed. More extensive menus are available both at lunchtime and in the evenings (Friday and Saturday only) and they are closed on Wednesday. Excellent value for money.

A nice little place to grab a bite while visiting old LyonThere wasn't an English menu that anyone could find, nor an English-speaking waiter.
