Comments for Café des Voyageurs, Lyon restaurant, Traditional restaurant in Lyon, 159 bd Croix Rousse, Lyon, 69004

A great little cafe with restaurant quality fare. Traditional values with a modern approach. The clue is in the name. Travellers are regarded as just that, not tourists to be sneered at or ripped off. The proprieter is a gregarious, outgoing soul, reflected in the music he plays (he's a former club DJ). Apart from the Gallic Olivier, the staff speak excellent English, as does Antoine (the boss). Relaxed atmosphere in the Bohemian part of town. Eclectic mix of customers. Thoroughly enjoyable place to have a beer or a coffee and watch the world go by.
