Contrary to some reports, this place is not closed, I was there on 16 January 2018. I got charged…read more10 euros entry fee despite being told over the phone that it was 8 euros. Also, for a can of coke (no alcoholic drinks are served, not even beer) and a bottle of poppers, I was charged 20 euros.You pay on leaving. The barman initially said 10 euros and I put ten down on the counter which was quickly snatched by him as I turned to talk to someone behind me. Then he revised the bill to 20 euros, so I took out another 10 euros and gave it to him and he insisted I hadn't already given him 10 euros, so I was forced to give yet another 10 euros to avoid an argument in a sexclub, so the cost of my visit totalled 40 euros because of this theft. And the place was virtually empty with mainly dirty old men wandering around and a bad odour everywhere. No way will I go back there when I'm next in Lyon in a few months.Tourists beware.

She also gave us stamps that allowed us to get into another club for free. Music was pretty good. Only downside is that there's only one toilet.

I had been traveling through the country, and it was my last night in Lyon, and in France. I…read moredressed up in the best clothes I had with me and went out looking for a gay/gay-friendly bar. Traveling alone and being a foreigner, I was hoping to find a place where I felt I could fit in, relax, and have a beer. Instead I found L Bar. I walked in (Monday, May 23, 2016, ~ 11pm) and approached the bar to order a beer. The female bartender (~5'6, short hair, brunette, fair-skinned) immediately came from around the bar, and spoke to me in French. Although I'm conversant in French, I am hearing impaired and, because of the loud music, I was unable to hear her. She shouted at me whether I understood English, and I nodded. She then told me it was a "lesbian only" bar (despite there being two other men sitting at the bar right in front of me), and asked me to leave. I asked if I could stay for a drink, and she said no. Shocked and in disbelief, I asked again, and she confirmed I was not allowed to stay. She walked me outside and directed me to another bar. I felt humiliated, very sad, and alone. I went in dressed well, mild-mannered, treated no one with disrespect, and wanted no more than to sit at the bar and drink a beer. The bartender's stated reason for asking me to leave, that I was not a lesbian, was illegal discrimination under the laws of France. The only other plausible reason was that she thought I could not speak French, but that, too, is discriminatory. In the service industry, it is a universal custom, regardless of the country, the city, LGBT business or not, to be welcoming and inviting to customers. And in all human interactions, people deserve to be treated with a minimal level of respect and basic human decency. L Bar could not even meet this minimum standard. Obviously, L Bar doesn't treat everyone this way, and they might even treat you well. But I ask that you stand in solidarity with me and not patronize this establishment. At the very least, don't risk the possibility that the bartenders there will find some reason to humiliate you or treat you as less than human.
