La Cour des Miracles is a verdant setting (with a p茅tanque court, if you please!) hidden just a stone’s throw from Vaise station. Let’s leave appearances at the door: we come here to share a few tapas with friends.

3. Caf茅 Gadagne
Probably our favorite: the discreet Caf茅 Gadagne is a sumptuous restaurant nestled between the rocky arcades and Roman passageways of the famous Mus茅es Gadagne (Vieux-Lyon). Sunday brunch or a tasty bistronomic menu during the week.

4. The Muses
If we had to tell you about one of our favorite panoramic spots in Lyon, we’d have no hesitation in telling you about bar-terrasse Les Muses, perched away from the glare and noise of the city, on the seventh floor of the magnificent Op茅ra de Lyon. Here, time seems to stand still, and the taste experience matches the breathtaking view.

5. La Barge
Granted, La Barge’s terrace isn’t the most hidden (let alone secret!), but its perfect position on the gentle waves of the Rh么ne, moored on the Quai du G茅n茅ral Sarrail, lends it a relentless charm and poetry. Somewhat sheltered from the noise of the surrounding boulevards, it’s a must-see at sunset.

6. Au Bord de l’Eau
Like La Barge on the Rh么ne, the Au Bord de l’Eau restaurant will thrill you to the sound of the gentle waves of the R茅servoir du Grand-Large, in D茅cines. Its huge terrace with its feet in the lake (you might even see swans!) offers a well-deserved break from the hustle and bustle of the city, with a taste for seasonal cuisine and traditional dishes.

7. Le Lounge (Warwick Reine Astrid)
As well as being just a stone’s throw from the magnificent Parc de la T锚te d’Or, the Warwick Reine Astrid hotel boasts a pretty interior garden and a hidden terrace ideal for relaxing before returning to the rhythm of the city. The welcome is warm and friendly, and the menu, for such a high-class establishment, is very reasonably priced.

8. Chez Lucien
Colors on every side, ivy in abundance, flowers galore… we’re not in Provence, and yet Lucien’s bright, verdant terrace at his Croix-Roussien restaurant exudes a soothing, almost comforting calm. Come with friends to sample its succulent bistronomic cuisine.

9. Monplaisir C么t茅 Cour
Monplaisir C么t茅 Cour isn’t just another address in Lyon’s eighth arrondissement, it’s a veritable institution. Its gigantic, cosy veranda and assertive retro-urban style will undoubtedly catch your eye, while its hearty family Sunday brunch will delight your taste buds.

10. Rooftop T锚tedoie
Formerly Les Terrasses de l’Antiquaille, this discreet spot on the Fourvi猫re hill has taken on a new name: the Rooftop T锚tedoie. In the Antiquaille district, this terrace with an exceptional view overlooks Lyon with its wood-panelled floors and soft canvases providing protection from the sun. An absolute must to admire the mountains in the distance from one of Lyon’s finest terraces.

11. Gourmet Bar (Novotel Lyon Confluence)
Hidden away at the top of the Confluence shopping center, in the bright, modern setting of the Novotel, the Gourmet Bar’s splendid terrace offers a breathtaking view of western Lyon. Sainte-Foy-l猫s-Lyon and the Sa么ne will open their doors to you between heaven and earth, with a glass of wine and a charcuterie board in hand.

L’Officine is the elegant bar at the H么tel Dieu in Lyon, which won TripAdvisor’s ” Travellers’ Choice Awards 2020 ” ! It boasts a menu to suit every pocketbook, regular entertainment with top-notch artists and a quiet, discreet setting in the heart of the sublime H么tel Dieu. An evening that is not to be missed.

13. Mama Shelter
Seriously, who wouldn’t want to lounge on the benches of Mama Shelter ? For Lyon epicureans in need of rooftop evenings with friends, we’ve found the ideal spot just a stone’s throw from Jean Mac茅! Mama Shelter is typically the kind of colorful, supercharged Lyonnais establishment where it’s good to chill out. If you’re looking for the best terraces in Lyon, this is the place to stop!

14. Le 10 Cour
The large, soundproof inner courtyard of the Le 10 Cour restaurant is a haven of peace in the immediate vicinity of the Part-Dieu train station. This precious calm in the city center is added to an ephemeral menu of dishes that change with the seasons. All the more reason to (re)come!

15. Victoria Hall
The Victoria Hall terrace is undoubtedly one of the largest terraces you’ll find in this ranking. Just a stone’s throw from Parc Sergent Blandan, the Victoria Hall offers delicious, well-crafted dishes in a chic setting shaded by olive trees. This is one of Lyon’s most highly recommended gastronomic addresses.

16. Le Moment
With its large, noise-free terrace, leafy walls and delicious dishes, we can’t recommend the atypical (almost village-like) setting of Le Moment, located near the Gare de Vaise. If you’d like to try our fine, tasty cuisine, don’t hesitate to try our steamed cod or yellowfin tuna with homemade foccacia. Unquestionably one of Lyon’s best terraces!
