A cute little cafe with friendly people. I had a cappuccino, 3 Euros. It was very sweet - I like it…read morea bit more with depth, but it was an excellent cup nonetheless. * There's a WiFi, but when I tried to connect, it said "not available/ will open again on Monday"..I visited on Sunday afternoon.

We came across this café as we were exploring the back streets of Lyon. Compared to other cafes in…read morethe area, this one has a great location (occupies a corner of a pedestrian plaza). The interior has a clean design as well as ample amount of day light. The staff is super friendly (English speaking) and the café itself doesn't feel commercial or touristy at all. A great place to kick-back, relax and people watch.

My husband and daughter were SO EXCITED to come here yesterday because my husband had been waiting…read morefor over a year until our daughter turned 12 so she could come to the cafe. She just turned 12 last week and so with so much joy and excitement, they went to the cafe. The woman (red-haired) opened the door with NO smile, NO friendliness and even after my husband said with so much joy that our daughter was 12. Guess what her reaction was? She said, "Is she really 12?" She was mean and gave terrible customer service. Why would she start with such distrust when he just said our daughter was 12 and had been waiting for a year to come? On the other hand, there was a woman with dark hair who was VERY kind. She smiled and welcomed them and the customer service was excellent. She explained about the cheesecake, different types of milk, etc. We have lived in France for almost 7 years and are TIRED of awful service. Please tell the dark-haired worker she did a great job and ask the red-haired woman to consider her actions because it brings down your reputation. We hope to have a better experience next time.

If you are in the area definitely go. They do fill up and require a reservation in most days. We…read morewere able to get a reservation an hour and a half after we showed up, so it worked out really well. There is either a cover charge but as long as everybody orders a food or drink, the cover charge is waived. The chocolate cake was amazing and it's super rich but the brookie was really dry. Just skip the brookie. The cheesecake was also fluffy and light. Not what I would say a traditional cheesecake is but was really good. The cats are definitely filled with personality. We had several approach our table, but one, Charlene was very territorial. She chased off other cats and other humans. The place was also very well decorated, with cat trees and boxes, and various places for them to curl up in and allow you to approach them to pet them. The rules are, cats can come to you but you're not allowed to pick them up. It really wasn't a problem, as noted. The cats definitely approached us, Sat at our table, stole our chairs when we would get up, and we had plenty of opportunity to pet, and love on various ones. They also have very cute souvenirs of the cats. Everybody was very kind and welcoming.

We drank here rather than ate here…read more But our one visit definitely made me want to come back for a real meal. * * * The Cafe Charmant is a visuals play. It is probably the most artistically decorated cafe we encountered in Lyon, short of the great grand Art Deco of Brasserie Georges. This is more intimate and more striking. The motif is lush vegetation, painted on to an olive green background. Green on green. The vegetation swirls in every direction in graceful curls. Cafe Charmant is in a not very charmant neighborhood, the immediate environs of Gare Oullins, a functional boxy modern train station with all the architectural beauty of a highway intersection. The buildings around it are uninspired modern apartments or somewhat industrial looking offices. In this grim suburban setting, Cafe Charmant is an oasis for the eyes and for the soul. My suspicion is that the food is just as good as the decor, But you will have to find that out for yourself.
